How Does It Work?
I've Been In Your Shoes
Tom Cooper here - I've been in your shoes. I worked for more than 20 years in IT and software.
I started out with a degree in computer science and was a hands-on technologist. Over the years I moved from being an individual contributor to a technical lead, to a leader of individual contributors and eventually wound up as a VP of Products in a SaaS company doing work on big data.
I studied LOTS of things in my career - I held many certifications, too - the highest level certifications in the hottest technologies around (back when dinosaurs roamed the earth.) I took lots of classes, and attended team building events.
You know what those programs never taught me?
It turns out that studies show that 87% of success comes from PEOPLE knowledge, and only 13% from product knowledge. I didn't get the critical skills I needed to be effective.
I was in a leadership role, and wanted to move up, but I didn't have the core skills that I needed to be effective. I guess my employers assumed I'd "figure it out."
I invested in myself
When I did learn that I needed skills I didn't have, I also found that my company was not always willing to send me to the training that I needed. They didn't understand that investing in those "soft skills" would really pay off.
I ended up reaching into my own pocket to pay for books, tapes, seminars, and classes.
