Are you looking for alternate career paths while employed? Where do you bring the most value to an employer? Education is something no one can take away from you - be it a graduate degree paid for by your employer, or the experience and knowledge gained while at that employer.
If your company is sold to a Private Equity firm tomorrow, and the 20% of employees with the highest salaries are terminated Monday morning, do you still have a job? Do you still want to have a job at that company?
The author's career took him from electrical connectors to medical parts, from contract manufacturing to military business. He's experienced in thermal electronics, from heat pipes to graphite, as well as the health, life, and disability insurance businesses. He traveled globally, visiting 34 different countries - for the most part all for business. From publicly held to private companies, commercial to government (USPS, US Military DoD) sales.
The author made a bucket full of mistakes in his career - learn from them, don't do the same!
