I discovered another way to use OneNote today. I created a section titled “Registry Hacks” and named each page as a brief desription of what that key accomplishes. For example, I needed to find these today, so I Googled to find them, copied the text and added each as a new page in OneNote, so…
The folks from this survey understand two things.
1. The skills they have today won’t be enough to be successful tomorrow. Technology is changing the work we do at an ever-increasing clip. If they are in a job that isn’t keeping pace, or giving them the opportunity to keep pace, it’s going to end badly for them.
2. If an organization isn’t recognizing the need for their talent to continuously learn it is not only offering a job without the kind of future they are seeking, but it’s probably not offering itself the kind of future it needs. People see this. Your top people know it’s true. They see a sinking ship long before you do. A ship that keeps doing what it’s always done without growing and adapting to change is sinking. Maybe not today, or the next year, but eventually, they know.
As I mentioned, I’ve left some jobs for reasons that had nothing to do with more money. Whether it was relocation, a desire to travel, a need to travel less, or the desire to work remotely, the one thing those changes had in common was that they were specific to my situation and preferences.
The other thing they had in common was that the place I was leaving did not have the flexibility to offer me what I wanted. Could the role have centered on doing more online training so I could travel less? Could a little remote work availability have kept me there longer? Could a fully remote position have allowed me to continue working and relocate?
We’ll never know because that wasn’t offered. Thus, I’ve switched jobs a few times.
These are all good, but this is one that I have seen time and time again. You can bring in an expert who says the same exact thing that someone has been saying for years internally, and suddenly it will seem like a great, new, idea. People get used to internal people hectoring them about…
Switching (well sliding I still use Windows quite often) to the Mac has been a pretty good experience for the most part. Of course, anytime you start using a new OS, there are always a million little things that you don’t realize are different until you get hit right in the face with them. That…
