One of the key questions that I hear today is, where are the new opportunities? With the amount of negative news it would seem like there is very little areas in the economy with needs. Ironically, there has never been more questions without answers. In the world around you, professionals and organizations are always looking for the next Ipod, Google, medical miracle or oil project. This week’s podcast is with Gad Shaanan. He is one of Canada’s most successful industrial designers. His firm just won the equivalent of an Oscar within his field – a best of 2007 I.D. award for packaging with his work on the new WD-40 can. Gad said “every single day, thousands of new products and companies are created in the world by professionals who are not waiting for permission from the market”. From reinventing what we have, to coming up with a brand new widget. The world is not a static place, which is what makes this time in our career so exciting. What are you waiting for?

This week, consider what needs “fixing” in your world who knows, the opportunity could be sitting in your garage.

Do you feel like you don’t belong in your work situation? Do you struggle with identifying your strengths? Does your job title define your? How’s that for some light questions with your Monday morning coffee? This week’s podcast is with Steve Maich and Lianne George, authors of The Ego Boom – Why the world really does revolve around you. I found their book provided interesting research and insight about why we struggle with finding the right fit in our personal and professional lives. The paradox is the world has never seemed more about us, yet many are lonely, unsatisfied, and not sure of their identity and place in this world. There are all kind companies providing products and services that are addressing the issue of identity.

(Face)book
(You)Tube
Oprah
America’s Got Talent
Starbucks
Amazon
Personal Blogs
and the newest kid on the block Twitter.

The answer lies with knowing, accepting and being true to our own identity. Not allowing a brand, company, or even job titles to define.

You.

The benefit.

Authenticity.

Take that Mastercard!
