Dare for the greatest. Jump stairs, skip levels

B34, 5th floor, Microsoft. My office.
My office and the only floor with bullet proof glass. Why?
I share the floor with Bill Gates, steve ballmer, Kevin Turner, Peter Cray, Alain Crozier, and other Execs.

“Alain, would you be my mentor?”, I ask a Senior Vice President, Alain Crozier, having his office 5 meters away from my office.

🙏 He's agreed to meet me on a monthly basis to talk career.

Sometimes.
✅ You would just like to blend in.
✅ Not to become a chameleon.
✅ Not to pretend.
✅ Not to hide. Not to show off.

You would like to blend in.
With all your strengths.
With all your weaknesses.
Be a part of that great company.
With the greatness you have running in your blood.

And occasionally you will hit the jack pot - the manager who loves you for who you are.

Your task in your career is to find that person.
🚀 And let him or her help you reach the stars.

Because, my dear:
No education matters,
No CV matters,
No great presentation matters,

❗️ so much as a great mentor IN your company.

The one helping you to achieve something you have not even dared for.

Go for it. Find the person.
🙏 Ask the closest senior person in your company to help you.
