We all have foundations in our careers; those skills that let us earn money, the network that finds us a job, the specific knowledges that let us predict trends. A quick examination of what you do, who you are, and the work you do will quickly make your foundation obvious (or its lack obvious).
Building our career foundation – skills, knowledge, experience, networks – is vital to having a successful life, a fulfilling job, and to achieving what we want to do in life. However building them is often hard in these changing times.
