Does advice like this apply in some way to personal/career development?
I would like to break in to a particular technical field. I believe that to work in that field, I'll need to demonstrate some measure of experience in that field. To that end, I'll need to build. This feels like a 'build first, sell later' kind of approach.
Or should I tip the scale toward 'selling' myself on the basis of my other useful experience, and build my expertise on the job?
- taf2 13y agoIMO - you have to always sell first in everything you do... yes we want to build first to prove first... but convincing someone else you are capable is the first thing to be done... assuming you can really do it - if you don't sell first no one will give you the chance...
