024 - Are you a 1D, 2D or 3D person? (Part 1)
- It's hard for people to believe that you can be good at more than thing.
- One dimensional people. Only capable of assuming singular traditional roles.
- Limited to people's expectations and stereotypes.
- Defined by the basic skills of their degree or profession
- Two dimensional - Able to manage people and tasks
- Competent in multiple technical skills that seem unrelated on the surface
- Refuse to live and work within the limits of poorly crafted job descriptions
- 3 dimensional - Able to navigate the technical and esoteric. And, not or. Art and science
- Execute tasks, manage people, AND inspire people to imagine a new future
The challenges:
- How can 2D and 3D people convince a world run by 1D people that they exist and that we can coexist?
- How do you communicate that you are more than your job history or resume?
- How can managers spot 2D and 3D talent and leverage these anomalies to benefit the organization?
- How can 2D and 3D people present themselves as non-threatening enough to gain access to opportunities where they can demonstrate their powerful contributions?
Put some rocket fuel in your career, grow faster, make deeper connections and more money.
