The right career for you?

Thursday, September 29th, 2011

I and many others use very complicated and detailed personality profiles or psychometric assessments to help people to understand their key traits and therefore the type of work or career that would best suit their skill set and personality. In the absence of these tools there is a very simple technique that you can use. It’s called the T theory.

T

The top bar of the T represents what is described as the generalist profile and the upright bar of the T represents the specialist. The generalist is the person who is 1 inch deep and one mile wide and the specialist is 1 inch wide but 1 mile deep. This describes the type of work and knowledge that each of these styles has.

The generalist will love broad based activities with variety being the spice of life. They will usually have a lot on the go and like to know a little about everything. They are very good delegators and their greatest challenge will be time management across the wide spread of interest that they hold. Typically project management, organization, administration, and management are the areas that are most suited to generalists. Typical jobs or careers might include; Medical GP, project manager, entrepreneur, marketing, sales, management consultant.

The specialist in contrast loves deep knowledge in very specific areas. For the specialist knowledge is power and the more you know on your chosen field the better you are. They are excellent researchers and experts. They enjoy ‘deep diving’ and data analysis, detail and accuracy are key to their happiness. They are drawn to science and professional roles that reward their knowledge and study. Typical careers might include; architects, software development, programming, engineers, surgeons, researchers, academics, scientists, industry expert and so on.

So which part of the T are you? Generalist or specialist and are you in the right role?

If you had but one choice…

Wednesday, August 10th, 2011

After a long absence from Yoga, today I went back. After a really great and energising session while chilling out, a thought came to me, a thought that I have been having for some time. What would happen in my life and in the world if I could only respond with LOVE. Now I’m not talking about going all soppy or becoming a hippy! Rather If I was to act from a place of goodness or kindness or compassion rather than ego or power or gratification what would happen?

So today I put it to the test and here are the results;

  1. 12 copies of my new book The 5 States of Success arrived today, normally I would think OK who needs to read this to get the word around about this book. So coming from a place of love I said “to hell with that, who matters most in my life?” and I signed a copy for each one of those people.
  2. About 6 o’clock in our house can be bedlam – those of you with children will know that this is the ‘witching hour!’. I needed to finish some work and was drawn to do this rather than get into the madness of feeds and baths, but I put off my impatience and played with the kids which bought my wife some time to do her things.
  3. An ad came on TV for people starving in Somalia, normally I switch channel as I find the images difficult and saddening. Today I did the same but vowed to do something to help. A few hours later a girl from Concern a charity working in Somalia to save lives called at my door looking for me to set up a standing order to help. The girl nearly fell over when she didn’t need to do a sales pitch as I said “Where do I sign?”. To which she responded “you have reaffirmed my faith in human nature – thank you.”

If in one afternoon this change in how I approach life could have such a dramatic effect as to support my family, share with my loved ones and help those in dire need, what would it be like if I took this approach for a week, or maybe a month, or maybe a year or perhaps maybe even a lifetime?

I believe that the effect that I would have on the world would be phenomenal. Now imagine what would happen if lots of people were to do this. What sort of world might we be able to create? The answer is so tantalising that I won’t attempt to put words on it, for no words could capture how good it would and can be.

So this is what I am going to do. I’m going to give this a try for a week. I’ll journal what happens and keep notes and if it looks like something that could go further, I am going to try a project “365 days from a place called Love”. Maybe you would like to try this too and share your insights.

Just in case you think this about religion or some other agenda it’s not. It’s about an experiment to see what effect you can have by choosing to operate from a place of love rather than a place of fear. I’ll share this journey with you and I tell you what works and what doesn’t, what I succeed at and what I struggle with.

So what do you think? Would you be up for the challenge? Maybe click LIKE or SHARE if you would be….

Thanks and have a great day,

Brendan

Is your career a stagnant pond or a flowing river?

Tuesday, May 3rd, 2011

Almost everyday I meet people who say – “my career is going nowhere” or “I am not where I want to be in my job” and many look to me for answers. The only answer to these questions is;

1. Where do you want to be?

2. What is stopping you getting there?

3. Will that make you happy if you get there?
