As we enter the New Year, it is an ideal time to reflect on not only our personal resolutions but our professional goals. Evaluating and establishing both long- and short-term goals is an essential step. It’s even more important to develop a personal blueprint for how you will reach these benchmarks. Committing to this exercise helped shape my career in many ways, from my start working every imaginable job on a golf course to my seat today in the corner office as the CEO of Cleveland Metroparks.
Growing up in rural southwestern Virginia, I never had the opportunity to build a soap box derby car. I remember seeing photographs or images on television of youthful midwestern lads attempting to maximize their wind resistance and reach the finish line first and thinking that would be fun. I was a Cub Scout and Webelo, and enjoyed the Pinewood Derby. I believe my cars might still be somewhere at my mother’s house. It was fun, but it wasn’t quite the same.
