(Aspiring Professionals) How to Enhance Your Professional Performance and Productivity: Aggrandizing Your Personal Operating System C E Dickens

Publisher Marketing: As an aspiring professional, you have just landed or are about to land that all-important job. What next? How do you navigate your way through the next phase of your budding career? How do you transfer your hard-earned classroom skills or military training into becoming a productive and well-rounded employee? What challenges lie ahead? What are the expectations? How do you get along with a difficult boss? Are there any workplace-related complexities that you need to be aware of, such as understanding "influential power and authority? How should you dress? Do you know how to do an implied task? In preparing to make the transition into the professional work environment, have you overlooked anything? This book is designed to give you some insight into how to manage these concerns. I have discovered there is a great need for personal and professional development. For many who are entering into the workplace environment for the first time, the need for personal and professional development extends to mentoring; learning to be the best you can be, making personal assessments, mastering professional relationships, and maneuvering in and around workplace politics. This project condenses all my knowledge and experience into what I believe is a one-stop "winning formula" that will enable you to learn how to operate very well in a work environment. This is not a book about leadership. Books about leadership can be found in every nook and cranny known to man. Rather than focusing on managing or leading others, this book is about managing and leading yourself while in a work environment. It provides practical principles and viewpoints to help guide you through challenges as you attempt to navigate your way through the professional work environment. My goal is to help you, whether you are transitioning into the workforce after college, helping those who are transitioning into a professional environment after completing a certification, leaving the military, or simply looking to enhance yourself personally or professionally.
