Professional Advancement
We often think that we will be justly rewarded if we work hard and make personal sacrifices for the good of our employers, but the reality is that you don't want to be so good at your job that you become irreplaceable without also demonstrating that you would be even more valuable in higher positions. Planning a highly rewarding career path and properly executing that plan is a lost art, but it is critical to learn what makes you valuable and to communicate that effectively to the right people.

A simple change of attitude goes a long way. I hated work just like everybody else, but that’s because I wasn’t looking at where I can go if I started paying attention to the big picture and made the right choices. I can see now why some people move up and everybody else gets stuck. This was definitely worth the time. Thank you!

My elevator speech went down just like you said and I was in a management meeting the next day. For real. THE. NEXT. DAY. They are going to put me in a mentorship program for new managers, so I'm already better off. The secret is out! Booyah!

No one ever tells you how to start a career or how to move up at work. You just think if you work hard you get rewarded for it and I wasted a lot of time thinking that. My roommate told me that she was getting professional counseling at ████████ and said that I could go with her and I did and now I have a whole new outlook at work! Just go!

I never really thought about a career path after high school. I just kept following the money and jumping from job to job like that’s what you’re supposed to do when you don’t have a degree. Meeting Dr. Michalicek changed my life. I didn’t want to be minimum wage labor anymore and now I’m working at ████████ and getting paid to do something I love and I have real goals now like becoming a manager and opening my own shop. It’s all about awareness and no one else teaches you what to look for. It’s not impossible like I thought it was.

I would just sit at my desk and do my job day after day with no real thought of the whole company, but [The Bona Vias Foundation] taught me to focus on my career path and start thinking about it with a purpose. I started asking the right questions to the right people and I was promoted twice within a year. It's crazy to think that I would have just kept doing the same job routine my whole life wondering why nothing ever gets better.
