Pour balancer le tout, cet article d(vieux, selon la longévité internet) de Rediff.com résume très bien la chose:
These are the skills to develop in order to reach these higher levels of performance:
* Learning agility: The ability to learn new things even as you let go of outdated concepts
* Flexibility: Being multi-dimensional
* Risk-taking: Get out of your comfort zone and try something new
* Focus on results/performance
* Surround yourself with positive thinkers
* Form deep and meaningful relationships, personally and professionally
* Find mentors/sponsors within and outside the organisation
* Deliver on your commitments
* Behave transparently
* Confront reality
* Find the right balance between work and the rest of your lifeThese are characteristics to avoid:
* Rigidity, being one dimensional
* Playing organisational politics to the exclusion of developing your own skills
* Cynical/negative thinking
* Making false promises
* Harbouring hidden agendasAbove all, as you make this journey, be true to yourself. You will not get ahead by trying to act like, talk like or behave like anyone else. You must be sincere, open and straightforward.
Conclusion: par dessus tout, Être authentique.
