Creating Power in Your Career

If you happen to be one of the millions of people around the nation who find themselves unhappy in their careers, it’s time to take a critical look at what you’re doing, not doing and what you think could make it better. Perhaps your trouble is an absentminded boss, a colleague who doesn’t work well with others, too many items piled on your desk, a lack of career advancement or even just you’ve lost the interest you once had in the industry you’re in. It can be a number of things – and never discount that the problem could in fact be you! Regardless of what it is, it’s time for you to start creating power in your career. After a hard evaluation of where you see some problem areas, think on how you can begin to improve them through a positive influence. Too much paperwork? Find if there is somewhere you can delegate or share a portion of the load, or figure out how to stream line your process and get through it faster. Annoying boss? Take the initiative to try and see their side or be a bit extra appeasing. See if it comes back in a positive way to you. There are literally countless ways to being creating power in your career – without having to result to leaving your job as it seems most young Americans do these days (know too many workers under 30 who have held a job for more than even a short three years?). At some point you may reach indisputable differences and it becomes time to move on. But make sure first you’re not giving up a good opportunity, especially in this tough market, when you could pro-actively make a few changes instead and create real power in your career.
