Blueprint #16: It's Who Knows What You Know What you know is important. Who you know is important. But far more important than either of these individually is WHO knows WHAT you know. Who knows what you know not only drives your promotability but also your ability to be in the "deal flow" for new opportunities coming to you, whether for internal or external roles. With partner-in-crime John Mayhall, we had a bit of 1990s movies-inspired fun digging into what's now Blueprint #16, also throwing in a few 2000s movie references to Taken and Training Day as well. https://lnkd.in/dm8gtwda #Blueprints #WhoKnowsWhatYouKnow
More awesomeness from this dynamic duo! This is such a correct and valuable observation. Like you, I've had many lighbulb moments where I discovered some unknown-to-me talent or experience from someone on my team or in my network that totally changed their promotability quotient or opportunity quotient. Don't be annoying about it, but people need to know!
As always, insightful and useful. Regular 1On1s up/down/across/cross-functional go a long way to increase the span of "Who Knows"
