Charlotte Beers Quotes

• The most common mistake you'll make is forgetting to keep your own scorecard. Very little at work reinforces your ability to do this, so you will have to be vigilant. When evaluators give you an assessment, they are just guessing at who you are; they certainly are not the ones who know your potential. They can rate you and influence you, but they don't get to define you. That's your most honorable assignment: to define, every day through the way you deliver your work, the scope and nature of your inherent abilities.

• Perfection, in the form of a flawless stream of words delivered with cool composure, is never as persuasive as realness. An impassioned but imperfect speech, which shows you care too much to hide flaws, is far more compelling.

• Resolving to influence and persuade others will require a degree of personal passion and a depth of caring that you are willing to express and act on.

The only antidote is to believe you are after a worthwhile change and that you are likely to be the right one to lead this particular charge.
