Excelling in your career depends on more than just doing a great job. Just because you're a decent software engineer, or you get the job done as a nurse- that doesn't mean that you'll quickly rise through the ranks. Nor does it mean you'll automatically see big raises or year-end bonuses! That's because there are things that managers and bosses expect of you, but they're never explained to you. This is the basis for Gorick Ng's best-selling book, “The Unspoken Rules: Secrets to Starting Your Career Off Right.” Gorick is a career adviser at Harvard, focusing on coaching first-generation, low-income students. But before that, he gained plenty of professional experience from working in management consulting, investment banking, and as a researcher with the Harvard Business School. Regardless of your specific job, there are plenty of soft skills and unspoken rules that you need to discover, in order to find success in your career.   Want more How To Money in your life?

In this episode, Tameshia discusses the challenges many young people are still facing when it comes to building a successful career, or even choosing the right path to begin with.Reviewing clips from three different Horizons 2021 conversations, Tameshia discusses how there is an urgent need for policy changes, increased investment, and a more equitable and cohesive journey from educational institutions to the workforce. The episode will explore what's still standing in the way of career success for many people, and how we can work together to help to streamline the process of career navigation.The journey from learning to earning can be ambiguous and unstructured. To complete the trek successfully, you have to engage in what's often called career navigation.Knowing how to approach career navigation is especially important for young people—our country's future talent.

Excelling in your career depends on more than just doing a great job. Just because you're a decent software engineer, or you get the job done as a nurse- that doesn't mean that you'll quickly rise through the ranks. Nor does it mean you'll automatically see big raises or year-end bonuses! That's because there are things that managers and bosses expect of you, but they're never explained to you. This is the basis for Gorick Ng's best-selling book, “The Unspoken Rules: Secrets to Starting Your Career Off Right.” Gorick is a career adviser at Harvard, focusing on coaching first-generation, low-income students. But before that, he gained plenty of professional experience from working in management consulting, investment banking, and as a researcher with the Harvard Business School. Regardless of your specific job, there are plenty of soft skills and unspoken rules that you need to discover, in order to find success in your career.

Gorick Ng is a graduate of Harvard College and Harvard Business School and is now a career adviser at Harvard College, specializing in coaching first-generation, low-income students. He's also a researcher with the Managing the Future of Work project at Harvard. His new book, The Unspoken Rules: Secrets to Starting Your Career Off Right, is now offered to employees at companies such as IBM, Houlihan Lokey, Invesco, Cigna, Qualcomm, GE, and others. Harvard Business School has also given The Unspoken Rules to every 2021 MBA student to give them an edge in their internships and full-time jobs. In this episode, Stew talks with Gorick about specific guidance for how young people can navigate school and their first jobs for early career success, with particular emphasis on first-generation and low-income students. Gorick's research and practice reveals there are three critical questions one must answer well: Are you competent? Are you committed? Are you compatible? After Gorick describes how his personal history led him to devoting himself to this field, he gets into some practical tips with examples for how to go about demonstrating competence, commitment, and compatibility. Here then is an invitation for you, a challenge, after you've had a chance to listen to this episode. For yourself, or for a young person you know, ask the three critical questions and come up with an action implied by whatever the answer might be.

Today I talked to Gorick Ng about his new book The Unspoken Rules: Secrets to Starting Your Career Off Right (HBR, 2021). This book takes you through one's career, from getting hired and oriented to trying to gain promotions. The interview follows a similar path, emphasizing how to get along with colleagues and one's boss most of all. The “north star” of Ng's advice gleaned from interviewing 500 people across professions and roles is to demonstrate competence (ability), commitment (excitement) and compatibility (pleasant to be around). Get the 3-C's model right, and you can avoid coming across as too overbearing or threatening as you form work connections, figure out what's missing and needs to be addressed in a meeting, and how to resolve conflicts. Speaking of conflicts, is a conflict deep down mostly about the people involved, the position one holds, or is it about the place? If the latter, then maybe it's time to move on to another organization instead. Gorick Ng is a career adviser at Harvard College, specializing in coaching first-generation, low-income students. He's also managed new employees at Boston Consulting Group and worked in investment banking at Credit Suisse. His work has been featured on “The Today Show,” and in The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, and elsewhere. Every Harvard Business School student received a copy of Ng's book this past year to aid their careers. Dan Hill, PhD, is the author of eight books and leads Sensory Logic, Inc.

Thank you for listening to our Finding Brave show, ranked in the Top 100 Apple Career Podcasts! “Once you're in the real world, there's so much ambiguity. There's so much less structure, and as a result it's not necessarily about keeping up, but it's about stepping up. It's about navigating this wilderness expedition that is our career.” - Gorick Ng In today's workplace, there are many “unspoken rules” that aren't spelled out clearly but early career professionals need to understand and navigate through them to set themselves up for great success. Although these rules may appear to be common sense, or known by everyone, in reality they may not be understood or even be in the consciousness of the people who would benefit most by applying them. And they most likely will ever be articulated verbally by your manager. Today's guest -- with an inspiring backstory that demonstrates why he's passionate about this topic -- reveals what these unspoken rules are and how they can be used. His messages will not only benefit recent grads, but also all contributors, leaders and managers in any organization.

It is a practical guide to help early career professionals become top performers at work and create work that is fulfilling and rewarding, based on 500+ interviews with professionals across geographies, industries, and job types. Gorick's book is quickly becoming required reading for students, interns, employees, and managers across Fortune 500 companies, non-profits, and educational institutions around the world. And this year, Harvard Business School gave Gorick's book to every MBA student to give them an edge in their internships and full-time jobs. Gorick is a career adviser at Harvard College, specializing in coaching first-generation, low-income students.

You've landed a job. Now what? To help answer that question, we're joined this weekend by Gorick Ng, author of The Unspoken Rules: Secrets to Starting Your Career Off Right. No one tells you how to navigate your first day in a new role. No one tells you how to take ownership, manage expectations, or handle workplace politics. No one tells you how to get promoted. The answers to these professional unknowns lie in the unspoken rules, the certain ways of doing things that managers expect but don't explain and that top performers do but don't realize. The problem is, these rules aren't taught in school. Instead, they get passed down over dinner or from mentor to mentee, making for an unlevel playing field, with the insiders getting ahead and the outsiders stumbling along through trial and error.
