Agility for the Individual, 7

The agility back-story is here.

Agility for companies is here.

1. Personal agility is the flexibility, responsiveness and determination to create a succession of mini-careers you love.
2. Because in a world of staggeringly rapid change many careers will be replaced by silicon-chips, robots or be so mind-numbing that you might as well be a robot.
3. The toughest question: why would anyone want to employ you?
4. Good Answer 1: a singular expertise that cannot yet be chipped e.g. measurable and useable leadership, customer service, innovation...
5. Good Answer 2: proactive and adding value to an organisation and helping it stay competitive: a truly vital component of the firm with transferable skill-sets.
6. Good Answer 3: you are amazingly flexible and deeply productive realising that much e-mail, many meetings and 97% of PPT slide-decks are reducing true productivity.
7. Start today: fresh sheet of paper, and and start working ON your career not just being busy IN your job.
