There’s no secret sauce for career success. If there was, we would all get an index card with the secret and everyone would be a high-performer. Unfortunately (or maybe fortunately), it doesn’t work that way. We should consider that our careers are a work in progress. The business world is constantly changing. Our career goals should change along with it. We must realize that we own our career.

How can I get my staff to sign up to work after-hours events ? Initially I came away from your blog with the takeaway that I needed to set clearer expectations for staff, reevaluate some of our commitments to outside events, and plan more contingencies for unexpected changes in staffing so that I was not the only backup for these events. Solid plan, right? So a few weeks ago I met with my boss about this. Go somewhere else!” It was bizarre.

A reader writes: I work in a small group of five professionals with a director. The five professionals all do medium-level financial/data work; the director also does similar work and is our project and personnel manager.

Examples include taking her to the dentist, driving her to a different building when it is raining, bringing in a belt when she forgot hers, picking up books for her at the library, borrowing our coats/shoes, getting her mail at a previous apartment building, etc. Either way, it’s a problem.
