Art Markman, PhD, author of books like Bring Your Brain to Work and Habits of Leadership, recently wrote about four important things mid-career professionals can learn from senior colleagues (may require subscription). They are:
- Focus on maximizing the impact of your work over the remaining years your career
- Put change into perspective, find the benefit despite the discomfort
- Become a lifelong learner
- Find ways to promote the careers of others
Did you receive great advice at the mid-point of your career? Did you learn something valuable from a senior leader that is impacting the second half of your career? Please share with us here in this community.
