you need to do to enhance your future potential.

Hogwash! Your future should be #1 and you need to spend time planning it.

5 Steps…

1. Define where you want to be in 24 months. I don’t mean generally.

What SPECIFIC POSITION do you want? Marketing

Director? VP Sales? Manager if Operations?

The target becomes the thing that drives what your personal development plan looks like.

2. Identify the people - FOXES - who would influence the list of those considered for the position you have
