Are you an “A–player” or a “B” or “C” candidate? According to the Herman Trend Alert …
“A–players” want the right opportunity with the right boss, are risk tolerant, and embrace their ability to perform.
“B” candidates have a low tolerance for risk and as a result, gravitate towards defined positions with a substantial base salary.
Risk–averse “C” candidates are slow to trust and suffer from the fear factor. Unable to clearly understand and articulate their value to the market, they are easily threatened by bosses and peers.
How do “A–players” find organizations where they can thrive? Look for companies where talent is valued (aggressive recruiting, training, and succession planning), there is a clear employee value proposition (high–performance culture), and clear opportunities for growth.
