Work Ethic: What it Looks Like and How to Cultivate it in 2023 | Fitzgerald on Talent

The Big Themes:


The WFH challenge for young talent: creating a personal
network and building personal credibility are incredibly
important early in a career, and Pat worries that young people
are not getting the networking and mentorship opportunities that
working shoulder-to-shoulder offers.

Work ethic in today's world: Pat defines work ethic not as
being the first-in, last-out team member, but rather the
cultivation of a reputation among bosses and peers as someone who
always gets the job done and gets it done right.

Responsibility and accountability: the only person who is
responsible for the success of your career is you. Some companies
and bosses are terrible, but there are still lessons to be
learned and experience to be had. Make the most of every job.



The Big Quote: "It takes a full time job to find a good job. It
takes a full career to manage and navigate the right career.
You're gonna make mistakes... Learn how to actually build a
career, a work ethic, and be able then to navigate how you want
to manage your career."
