Everyone working in an organization must continually prove, Temple asserts, how they add value. This requires knowing how your actions contribute to the success of your organization, and how your daily behaviors support value creation. Beyond the necessary functional/technical knowledge; she points to three factors that help ensure one's competitive strength in the workplace, described in detail in the article. In her words, the factors are: (1) having a clear idea of the value we add, (2) always being up to date on the latest trends, and (3) being bilingual and proficient in technology. And remember that the concept of a job for life is “virtually extinct.”
