While playing the organ before a meeting at church, instead of playing what was written, I was improvising based on the music in front of me. Until I didn’t know what I should play next. While I play well, I’m not truly knowledgeable about music theory. That means I can play myself into a corner that’s hard to get out of.

Getting stuck in a job is a similar predicament. Maybe you don’t know enough to get unstuck. It’s fortunate you found this VidBook. Here are two approaches to getting unstuck. Select one or both.

Approach 1 – Build your capability to market yourself

THE OUTPUT

You have the content to show you’re valuable. That usually leads to having the confidence to present your value, since you now know what your real value is. You're no longer guessing about your value or comparing yourself to others using insufficient data. Your confidence, along with the proof of your value, can lead to that next job.

THE PLAN

What You’ll Want	How the VidBook Helps
A perspective that helps you see the possibilities available to you.	In the foundation sections, 1, 2, and 3, you learn a valuable output approach that is better than merely working hard.
Clarity on how you’re connected to the company results.	The section Identify Relevant Business Results identifies how to clarify your connection with company results.
A method to build and display the real value you bring to your job.	The section Make Your Value Measurable moves you from trying to meet unclear expectations to producing measurable Value-Added Outputs.
A Wow-some resume.	The chapter The The Resume Readiness Plan shows an approach to creating an ever-ready resume. Your marketing will be pathetic without a Wow-some resume.
