Professional skills are critical to career success, but they are rarely taught formally and often learned only if you are lucky enough to have great mentors. These 3 habits are the distillation of years of conversations that helped me build my professional skills. They have been critical to advancing my career from stuffing envelopes in a mailroom to working on beloved film and television projects as a senior software engineer. Through my mentorship work, I have watched numerous professionals, with varying levels of experience and industry knowledge, build more focused teams and fast-track their growth. I will walk through, step by step, how to give meaningful feedback, create an impressive brand identity, and develop a healthy industry network. Integrate these habits into your daily work and you will be a superstar with the tools to pursue not only your personal goals but also those of your team and your organization.
