Unit 5 Launching your career
[单元话题导入]
Meet the New Boss : You
Up until the 1980s,people in many countries regularly followed in their parents' footsteps by working in the family business or joining the same profession as them. You'd follow your father to sea,onto the farm or into the workshop. You'd follow your mother into the kitchen or sewing room. In your grandparents' time, there was the prospect1 of doing the same job from graduation until retirement. How times have changed! Most people now have no intention of following in their parents' footsteps or even staying at one job for very long.
In fact,planning to work in the same field or industry for your entire working life just isn't practical anymore. One reason for this is technology. The skills you have now are unlikely to remain relevant and be enough to help you through your entire career. In fact,they will probably be out of date very soon. And then what will you do? Work hard? Win the lottery? Hope for the best? You might be lucky. These strategies might bring you a nice, comfortable life: working at a job you like, earning a decent salary and retiring while you're still young and healthy. But most of us today have to look beyond the little box called “career”.
If you think you can work eight hours a day and build a career,think again. You might be able to keep your job if you finish what you are asked to do,but this is hardly a recipe2 for great career success. Instead, you'd better keep looking for smarter ways to do your work. You'll need to be a risk taker, an innovator3,a problem solver, and a hard worker. Keep doing this,and you can become an expert or a specialist in something one day.You have a chance to choose to build a career, rather than being told to stay or to go.
Jobs and occupations4 come and go at an amazing pace these days. If you think you can't be replaced by software, or your job can't be outsourced5 to some robots on the moon,you are wrong.What if your job disappears after working for 10 years in the field? You may have to go back to the classroom and be retrained in order to qualify to work in another field. In fact,in all likelihood6, you will have to do this multiple times. But you can be prepared for developments and changes before you are thrown out of a career. It is entirely your choice to learn,or to be forced to learn.
In short,if you want to succeed in a 2lst century career, you will have to develop new essential skills. Lifetime security from one employer is no longer certain or even likely. The truth is that you are the boss of your career,and it is up to you to decide what you can do and how well you can do it. Are you ready for this?
