Your career is a business, and you are the product.
The good news is that means business skills are career skills and you have more than you think. Here are a few examples:
- Marketing: Find your niche (the problems you can uniquely solve).
- Sales: Talk benefits (how you add value), not features (what you’ve done)
- Delivery: Define the outcome (your target role), tasks (skills and experiences), and a timeline
- Project Management: Engage your stakeholders (ie. your network) and manage the risks
It’s your job to make your career happen. Use all the tools you have.
