Those in more established industries can look for the rocket ships within their companies—divisions or teams that are expanding.
成熟的行業可以在其企業內部尋找“火箭”,即正在擴張的部門或是團隊;
And in careers like teaching or medicine, the corollary is to seek out positions where there is high demand for those skills.
而像教育或醫藥這樣的行業,就需要找出那些對職業技能有要高要求的職位。
For example, in my brother's field of pediatric neurosurgery, there are some cities with too many physicians, while others have too few.
比如,在我弟弟所在的小兒神經外科領域,有些城市的醫生過多,有些城市的醫生則太少。
My brother has always elected to work where his expertise would be in demand so he can have the greatest impact.
而我弟弟總是選擇去那些能充分發揮自己專業技能的地方,以便發揮出最大的職業潛力。
Just as I believe everyone should have a long-term dream, I also believe everyone should have an eighteen-month plan.
我相信每個人都應該有一個長遠的夢想,我也相信每個人都應該有一個“18個月目標”。
(I say eighteen months because two years seems too long and one year seems too short, but it does not have to be any exact amount of time.)
(之所以說“18個月”是因為兩年聽起來太長,一年聽起來又太短,這表示并不一定要有完全確切的時間。)
Typically, my eighteen-month plan sets goals on two fronts.
通常,我的“18個月目標”會從兩方面加以考慮:
First and most important, I set targets for what my team can accomplish.
首先,也是最重要的,以“我的團隊能為公司做什么”設定目標。
Employees who concentrate on results and impact are the most valuable,
那些關注結果和影響力的雇員是最值得重視的,
like Lori, who wisely focused on solving Facebook's recruiting problem before focusing on herself.
比如洛里·戈勒,她很聰明地把注意力放在解決臉譜網的招聘難題而不是自己身上。
This is not just thinking communally—the expected and often smart choice for a woman—but simply good business.
這不僅能讓女性從共同利益的角度思考問題,它也符合人們的期望并且是一種明智的選擇。
