Leaderly Quote: Opportunities are yours to create
By Jo Miller
“Opportunities are yours to create, not gifts from a boss or your company.” — Liz Brenner
In a post on her blog, Lead With Intuition, Liz Brenner writes that of all the big opportunities she’s had in her career, “… they were things I worked for, asked for, or pursued.”
Brenner, who is Vice President of Marketing Employee Engagement at SAP, believes that you own your career, not your boss or your company. “Don’t wait for opportunities to be handed to you,” she says, “find them and make them!”
What will you do this week to take charge of your career and create your next big opportunity?
