True or False?

True or False?

I'd really love to know your thoughts here...

1.    If you are working for a big organisation, unless you are adding massive value, you are expendable. 

2.    Even if you are adding massive value to your organisation, you are still expendable.

3.    You should wait for company’s internal leadership programs to develop yourself!

4.    It's your company’s responsibility to train and develop you to perform!

5.    When you work for a big company, you should let them be responsible for planning your career.

6.    You need a great working environment to personally perform at the highest levels.

7.    Having a good leader is more important than being a good team member.

8.    It’s impossible to work in a company that’s not clear about its Vision, Mission and Values.

9.    Your leader knows what you need both personally and professionally.

10. Spiritual development has no place in business.

Your thoughts?

A few thoughts a) I always consider myself expendable regardless of who I work for or the value I deliver. b) you’re only as good and valuable as the last deliverable. One should ensure they continue to add value as frequently as possible and the greater the value the better. c) I always view the company, the results, the customers and shareholders as if they’re personally mine. d) growth, development, career and performance are your own accountability, no one else’s. A company and others can only provide access and the platform to excel, you personally must drive the rest. e) I’m a firm believer that who you work for, clear vision, aligned values and the environment impact ability to perform at the highest level. Once again it is your responsibility to influence and change this if it is not conducive to your needs. f) we are human not machines. To obtain peak performance, a company must consider the role they can play to enhance, develop and look after the physical, emotional and spiritual aspects of the people they employ. Simon
