Career Management as Personal Marketing and Business Development

Overview This paper provides a comprehensive picture of valuable skills to develop as you move through your career, with the very important context of why you need them (from the "customer's" viewpoint), and an integrated understanding of how presentation skills, technical expertise, meeting management skills, networking, business understanding, etc. can provide incredible career leverage. It also covers how to come up with a personal strategy for developing those skills, and how to continually "market" yourself - communicating and using your capabilities to maximize your opportunities, your success, and your overall career satisfaction.
