29. The Bottom Line is YOU! Companies today aren’t managing their employee’s careers; knowledge workers must, effectively, be their own chief executive officers. It’s up to you to carve out your place, to know when to change course, and to keep yourself engaged and productive during a work life that may span 50 years. To do these things well, you’ll need to cultivate a deep understanding of yourself—not only how you learn, [but] how you work with others, what your values are, and where you can make the greatest contribution. Because only when you operate from strengths can you achieve true excellence. Peter Drucker (2005)
