Don’t Become an Executive Statistic – Part 1
At the March 2011 meeting of the Houston Financial Communicators Group, I recently had an opportunity to watch speaker, career coach and change transition dynamo Cecilia Rose in action. Part of her repertoire is coaching executives through their transition into and out of companies, as well as moving up in the ranks.
As a consequence of the challenges of the financial industry, many financial and banking executives are forced to make changes, and Cecilia’s presentation entitled, Don’t Become an Executive Statistic is apropos and resonates with so many.
“Don’t waste your crises,” advises Cecilia. Many successes and the world’s wealthiest were born from dire situations, such as the Great Depression. “Seize your opportunity,” she added.
The financial industry debacle has caused a great deal of consumer mistrust, but key is finding opportunities. According to Cecilia, crises should force you to “stretch your wings and do something you’ve never done before.”
Watch Cecilia discuss “Don’t Waste Your Crises” below.
Next up is Cecilia’s discussion of the Top Three Reasons for Failure and what not to do..
