THE UGLY TRUTH: About your Job - Career - Future
If you work for yourself: the odds you will still be in
business in the year 2005 are only 1 in 5. In today’s
workplace swirling with change, one million people will
start a new business this year. The UGLY truth is, 800,000
will be "out of business" in the year 2005.
If you work for someone else: It is likely you won’t be with
them in five years. Even major corporations lack staying
power in today’s international economy. The average job
cycle is down to 3 to 5 years but in recent months has been
cut much shorter. Even our years of experience become
obsolete over-night. In fact most will change careers (not
jobs) five to seven times over the next 40 years.
Security is no longer in the job: the company, the industry
or any other outside force. Our intrinsic worth is measured
by what we can contribute to any organization today and
tomorrow.
What can I do, you ask: to provide security no matter where
I go or what I aspire. The only transferable skill that can
be applied to any opportunity is your ability to (1) Make
your point. (2) Sell your ideas. (3) Express yourself
persuasively and convincingly. These skills never become
obsolete.
Research studies prove: that a strong command of the English
Language is directly linked to your career advancement, to
the money you make, and to your social success. The Johnson
O’Connor Research Foundation studies human aptitudes and
their link to success. They report - "An extensive range of
verbal skills accompanies outstanding success more than any
other single characteristic." - In hard times the same
studies show that those laid off first tend to be low
communications skills people.
Michael Leaven said: In his book, Guerrilla P.R., "ability
to use language persuasively, is arguably the most important
attribute. Verbal communications is the #1 key to personal
and business success."
FUTURIST, Rolf Jensen: director of the Copenhagen Institute
for Future Studies. "We are in the twilight of a society
based on personal communication skills." Society will place
new value on the language of persuasion. Specialists in the
art of inspiring human emotions will be in demand. Companies
will recruit people based on how they express their ideas.
Advanced Conversation Skills Coach: Oscar Bruce in his book
WINNING WORDS WINNING WAYS asserts that "With a strong
command of language you will go farther and get ahead
faster."
Give Yourself The Edge:
At a time when people are being laid off at an expected
rate, give yourself the edge when it comes to keeping your
current job or being first to get a new job.
