    Somehow, six months of 2020 have gone by. I know, best not dwell on that notion for too long. But, now is a good time to check in on career goals that were set at the start of the year. Given the historic upheaval that has swept the world in the months since you might’ve set those goals, it’s probably time to re-evaluate. Take a look at my goal-setting posts which give you an easy step-by-step process for thinking about what you want in your personal and professional life and a roadmap to get there.

    Impressing Your Boss While Working Remotely

    If you’re looking for ways to improve your productivity and get the most out of your WFH experience, my thoughts are all gathered for you here in my work-from-home guide on Memorandum. But I also recently found this article on “managing up” and the ideas are both practical and helpful. I especially like the idea of sending your boss a weekly email update with a list of the key things you accomplished over the course of the week, along with everything that’s on your list for the week to come. Our bosses can no longer see us working in a…

    Last week I published part two of my goal setting focus for the month of January! It’s one of my favorites and details exactly my process for setting and actually ACHIEVING goals. There’s so much more to the process than just thinking, “I want to make more money this year” or “I hope I get promoted.” By following these steps and the corresponding worksheets, you can actually make things happen. I’ll be sharing lots more career content in 2020, but this is one to really catch up on before we go further. Goal setting sets the stage for the entire…
