Why to get more education?
|
First… Why should you care? Over and over, we have heard from our parents or at school the same story. Study hard. Get a good degree. With the good degree, a good job. Then, work hard. That’s the perfect receipt to be permanently frustrated about how little money you make, and how much money others make. No matter if you are an operator or a CEO. The money that you make out of selling your time never tastes fulfilling. If you care about that, you should continue your education until you die. Not more degrees necessarily. But just more experience. You need to expose yourself to new things. You need to learn new things. And why? Just to have more options. Knowing every day more and more about less and less is also following the path of slavery. You limit the companies you can work for. You limit the positions you can work on. And if you didn’t take care of your finances… You limit enormously the offers that you can accept for that job in that company. So, continuing your education, trying new things, get exposed to new people, thinking, mindsets, businesses, opinions, etc. is just a way to give you more options.

Your client does not want another consultant. They want to walk into the next Board meeting knowing the project is under control. They want difficult decisions made early. Commercial risks understood. Contractors challenged. Stakeholders aligned. And no nasty surprises buried in a 200-page report. They do not aspire to manage complexity better. They aspire to make complexity disappear. That is the job. I learnt that the hard way… inspiration below. Once that you apply the lessons of those...
Gillette had taken razor technology to the point of absurdity. Five blades. Lubricating strips. Precision trimmers. Suspension technology. Even quantum anti-ageing effect on your skin. The biggest stars in sport and Hollywood to advertise them. And, of course, charged accordingly. Michael Dubin, today’s story hero, was tired of the whole thing. Tired of paying ridiculous prices for razor cartridges. Tired of having to ask a supermarket employee to unlock a glass cabinet every time he needed...
You arrive on Monday. You open your inbox. There are 63 unread emails. Three say “urgent.” Two contain decisions that should have been made six weeks ago. The contractor is waiting for an instruction. The public agency is waiting for more information… delaying an approval that you desperately need. The lenders are waiting for extra information to give you the blessing for a zero-cost unsubstantial change. And your team is waiting for you. You open the programme. The completion date has not...
