Want to know the secret to becoming more valuable at work

Want to know the secret to becoming more valuable at work? Figure out what your leader values.

Every leader…good, bad, or Jerry Jones…is trying to accomplish something. If you understand what that something is, you know what to aim for, and how to make it count.

Like it or not, our value professionally is measured by how much we contribute to our leaders’ values.
