TICKING TIME BOMBS OF IRRELEVANCE
While training staff of a company a little more than a year ago, I said something very instructive. You should learn from it.

If you are not growing, and evolving and becoming more relevant to not just your company or organisation but to your industry, then you are essentially sitting on a ticking time bomb of irrelevance.
And when it explodes, it will find you on the wrong side of history- the gone side of history.
Right now, if all you can do in your organisation or industry is all you could do years back and all you have been doing again and again without major improvements, then there is a high likelihood that there are other people out there who can do twice the quality of what you do in more efficient ways than you do it for half the pay you are collecting.
Other conditions being equal, once the ones who pay you find these other people, you are out of a job.
The truth, however, is more than this.
With the advancement in the world, it is not only other people that are waiting to take your job. Technology is waiting to take your job.

Look out for my next post where I share what I call The Law of Corporate Evolution.*
Now, I ask you a direct question.
In what ways have you intentionally improved recently? What skills do you have now that you didn't have 6 months ago? What new and relevant knowledge have you acquired recently?
What has your future earned from your today? What is your claim to sustained relevance?
