How Brilliant Careers are Made and Unmade
Presented by Carter Cast, Professor at Kellogg School of Management
Why do some people make it big while others, equally experienced, talented, and credentialed, fall by the wayside?
One study shows that half to two-thirds of all managers will be fired, demoted, or plateau at some point in their careers. Further, the cost of those derailments to companies can be more than twenty times that of the employee’s salary.
This webinar offers valuable information to uncover what we don’t know about ourselves, being the thing most likely to hurt us. Most of those who derail go wrong because of five major propensities. To find out where your career might derail and how you can prevent it, Carter Cast has developed an online assessment.
