the GET NOTICED notebook

About the Book

There is nothing worse than being overlooked or taken for granted, especially if you work hard. To be noticed—for the right reasons—you have to make smart choices. All of us can keep ourselves busy, but what we occupy ourselves with may not help us advance strategically or make the most of our current situations. The lessons in the GET NOTICED notebook focus on practical, win-win and—yes, even walk-away strategies. It is written for the middle market with its unique challenges of supervising others while completing individual assignments and developing the skills needed to manage upwards. It is not written for those who believe in getting ahead at all costs. This book is for the good guys who need some help. Use these proactive approaches and leadership skills to refine your personal brand and become a better manager of your career. Become visible and therefore more valuable.
