Über diesen Titel
In this episode, we reveal the harsh reality every high performer needs to hear: 👉 You’re replaceable in 10 days. But your career equity lasts a lifetime.
High performers give everything to their jobs—50 to 60 hours a week, late-night calls across time zones, hours lost in commutes, and grueling 13-hour flights multiple times a year. They believe that loyalty and hard work equal job security.
But here’s the costly truth: 15 years of dedication can be wiped out in a 15-minute conversation. You can be replaced in less than 10 days.
What’s the real price of spending 100% of your energy on your job and 0% on building your career equity?
Executives understand this crucial difference:
Your job is temporary. Your career is lifelong.
Career equity compounds. Job performance depreciates.
This episode reveals the critical difference between working ON your career versus just working IN your job, featuring the true story of a 15-year employee blindsided by reorganization—and what happened when she tried to come back.
If you’re working 50+ hours a week but spending zero time on career development...
You’re not building security. You’re building vulnerability.
Ask yourself:
How many hours this week will you dedicate to your career—not just your job?
