EmploymentScape Chief Executive Officer, Harrison Barnes discusses how crucial it is to have career options in your life.
Harrison strongly believes in the idea of having options in your career. Your career needs to be supported by multiple pillars. In order to be strategic with your career, you should never allow yourself to be boxed in by being dependent upon just one person, skill, or otherwise for your success.
If you are good at one thing, you need to make sure that you have other skills in case whatever you are doing goes away. You do not want to be vulnerable to any one person or the economy. You need to be strong, like the Parthenon.
Harrison believes that you need to run your career in such a way that you are supported like Parthenon and can adapt to all economic and other climates. You too need to provide value and run your career in such a way that you are always providing value. In your career and life, you need to be supported with a strong foundation and always need to be portraying strength. The less weakness you have, the better.
You too need to use the Parthenon Principle in your own career. Support your career and life with multiple pillars.
