Summary Description
What, exactly, makes one person more successful than another? What explains why two people can be equally intelligent and perform equally excellent work, but only one advances to the next level, while the other faces the frustration of being overlooked for a promotion time after time?
The answer: While some people leave the fate of their careers in someone else’s hands, others determine their future by using three critical skills: perception, visibility, and influence.
In our summary of Getting Ahead: Three Steps to Take Your Career to the Next Level, by Joel A. Garfinkle, you’ll learn how to create the right image, increase your profile across the organization, and exert influence by driving change and inspiring other people.
Garfinkle is recognized as one of the top 50 coaches in the U.S., and has worked as a consultant for Ernst & Young and Accenture. His clientele includes Oracle, Google, Amazon, Deloitte, Ritz-Carlton, Bank of America, and many others.
This summary will teach you the effective tools and tactical approaches that will immediately make you an invaluable and visible resource for your company. When you're finished, you'll be equipped with a step-by-step program that will enable you to deal with whatever is in your way and remove the blind spots that may be limiting your career.
