Creating a career vision requires thinking differently. Most people think that in order to create a big career vision or any change in life, you need to first achieve the result you’re looking for, and then you show up the next day and learn how to live and steward that result. 

That's one way to do it. 

In this episode, let's have some fun. I am going to talk about how to create your vision from a future perspective.

Often when you are newly promoted you need to watch that you don't drain your energy and fall into the resource gap. 

You know your former responsibilities better than anyone and this often keeps you on point to continue to be a resource. 

While it’s nice to feel instrumental to the organization there are short-term and long-term consequences to staying on point. In this episode, I will show you how to ask better questions to free up your resources, preserve your brain, and get better results.
