"Be unassuming. Otherwise, you'll cry."

The professional world.

Me — i.e, jpenseur


People are so steadfast on the idea that any sort of advancement in your career is only a result of your network. Truthfully, I find it disappointing, and I want to break that cycle. I want to be someone that is able to bring value because of my competence. Advancement in hindered because we don't share power. Talent fades away because we much rather grow a familiar plant, than one that can be exceptional. I find the idea unpalatable, and in some ways corrupt.
