Sounds like a recipe for a definite burnout..😅 Also what I wonder in this type of behaviour is that you cannot get anything done properly if you are running around like this. In the end, nothing actually gets done (at least well) because you are not focused on the task at hand

I don't even want to get promoted. I want to retire 😂. I hate my job and all the responsibility. 1 of my directors hated his job so much because of the increased work load and stress he quit.

How to show (don't tell) that consultants have actually no clue what they are talking about.

I've worked in the same industry for over 20 years. I've never seen hard work get anyone promoted. Hard workers are necessary, they know their station, but they never get promoted. The ones who get promoted are as you say, visible, and also intellectually curious. They know the business, not just their own role.

What the point to providing solution for your employer, if you are such a person that is knowledgeable and capable to really solve problems, then just ditch the 9 to 5 job and start your own business solving problems for your clients.

Not everyone is interested in having his own business. Maybe you need money now and can’t afford to wait, maybe you just enjoy the freedom that being an employee gives you… I’ve seen my parents scarifying their lives for their business, I prefer to have a stable job and be free to switch whenever I want.

Hi Heinrich! How do you change your mindset from being a problem talker vs problem solver? Ive recently had the inner thought that im not a huge high agency problem solver person at times, but i want to change that. Overall ive been successful in thr workplace but ive met some people that really seem driven and natural problem solvers

Think it's key to give compliments as well. There is no soul in the world that does not like it. By giving people compliments you recognize their added value and thank them for instance for getting you a piece of data or information. Best to do it in public with their manager around or team members. I try to make sure we celebrate enough accomplishments within our team too. Its easy to work hard and then when it's done move on to quick to the next assignment. Try to take a moment and enjoy the fact you delivered a top notch product for your director or manager. Dont need to be something huge.

I would add to always clarify if you don't understand something and don't be the person who waits and wastes time by working on something that's is wrong since you didn't clarify any misconceptions you had. Also try to finish things and learn how to say no.

Your list is accurate in a professional environment. The reality of American business is that professionalism has been replaced by strategy. In this environment, the advice for personal success is the opposite.

do you recommend a CFA first then MBA? should we do both?
@FirmLearning14 күн бұрын
Hi! Purely for career progression it should not be needed to do both an MBA and then a CFA. If you indeed want to do both, definitely will not hurt to start with a CFA, as you can do the first level(s) straight out of university, while you will need work experience for MBAs. Cheers! Heinrich

Do not underestimate visibility. It's probably the biggest lesson I have taken from my most recent job. I was up for promotion and on paper my performance was almost double that of another candidate. But he had visibility to the leadership team and they knew his name. I didn't get it. It's an important lesson, you have to sell yourself or the work you are doing will go unnoticed.

Hi Heinrich, your channel is a gem, especially for an expat like me in Germany. Could you please tell me how possible it is for a big 4 consultant switch to Mckinsey with only a very average level of German (B2)?
