Let Your Career Be a Mosaic, Not a Path

05/25/20 • 19 min

Have you ever met someone and thought, "Wow, the future is in great hands with this amazing person?" That's how I felt when I met Hilal Koc Savci. She is a Me-Suite role model, career maverick and start-up expert. Hilal is truly a global citizen of the world having lived in the US, Turkey, Argentina, Russia and the UK. She is passionate about driving technology trends to improve lives and has contributed her talents to some of the most influential businesses in the world, including LinkedIn and Facebook. Hilal challenges us to write the headline we want to see for ourselves and take a leap of faith to achieve it. And most wisely, she encourages us not to think of a career as a straight-line path, but rather as a mosaic of experiences and options we create by pulling on our strengths.
Hilal's core values: Curiosity, Passion, Humility

Place Bets Now to Have the Future You Want

Donna Peters brings back popular Episode #6 guest, Dipak Patel. Here in episode #49, Dipak talks about the power in having the mindset of a Chief Strategy Officer.
A Me-Suite mindset requires asking:

Where do I want to be in the future? 1 year, 3 years, 5 years, 10 years?
What bets do I need to place now to get to that future? These bets could be about the company you work for, the people you surround yourself with, the knowledge you acquire, the experiences you gain, the personal priorities you place around family, health, finances, etc.

Dipak challenges us to ask smart questions and surround ourselves with people who make us better. Listen also to Dipak's initial episode #6 on Having a Growth Mindset.
