In this incredible episode, I sit down with Mark Herschberg, the author of The Career Toolkit, which offers valuable insights on all skills critical to your career and business success.

He emphasizes the importance of having a plan, quoting Prof. Jason Rosenhouse: “Always have a plan. Even a bad plan is better than no plan at all.” Mark highlights the need for proactive planning, stressing that it doesn’t have to be perfect and can be adjusted as necessary.

Mark shares the motivation behind writing his book, The Career Toolkit, which aims to equip individuals with the essential skills and strategies needed to succeed in today’s rapidly evolving professional landscape. Drawing parallels to learning sports or music, he emphasizes that mastering leadership, negotiation, and teambuilding skills require practice.

Mark also delves into the key factors contributing to team success and highlights the contrast between classical management and managing information workers.

Are you tired of forgetting valuable insights from books and podcasts? Say goodbye to wasted time and hello to a simple solution that takes just 2 seconds a day. Mark introduces the Brain Bump App, a game-changing tool that helps you remember valuable insights and ideas.

Key Takeaways:

• “Always have a plan. Even a bad plan is better than no plan at all.” ~Prof. Jason Rosenhouse [03:15]

• In all things that we do, we need to proactively have a plan. It doesn’t have to be a perfect plan; we can change it. [04:40]

• Once you can define the information flow, it’s much easier to coordinate your team and have it run smoothly and effectively. [11:04]

• When it comes to leadership, negotiating, and team building, it’s not like learning math, where you only need to get the formula. It’s more like learning sports or music; you have to try and practice it. [17:59]
