Everyone needs people to count on for good, sound support and advice. You are the CEO of your business; your career is the business of your life. It is prevalent for CEOs to have multiple people in their life who they rely on for insights to help them make decisions – such as a diverse Board.
There are several reasons to have a personal Board of Advisors related to your CareerTruth and the three arcs of your career: Achieving Mastery, Seeking Freedom, and Leaving a Legacy.
- In achieving Mastery, you should consider advisors who can objectively provide insights into your Professional Inventory and Professional Goals. They can help you assess your gaps and support development actions.
- In seeking Freedom, you may select an advisor that helps you objectively evaluate your use of time to meet your personal goals aligned with your family, health, or financials.
- In understanding your Legacy, an Advisor could provide insights on how you can increase your influence to benefit others.
The CareerTruth platform allows you and your Board to interact as often as you like without committing to dozens of coffees, calls, and other meetings. Once you have personally asked these key figures to serve on your Board, you receive a customizable email that outlines Advisor expectations, a sample goal they’d be assigned to help you, and a link to place them in your CareerTruth platform to chat. Good Advisors are excited to pour into others and want the interactions to be fulfilling and produce your desired results.
Your Board can be a powerful accelerant to your career. No matter what your situation, we all need objective support we can trust.
