From technical engineer to principal to major owner to entrepreneur, Peter Atherton is the living proof your career doesn't need to follow a "common" path for you to be making progress. As you grow and expose yourself to new things, your "seasons" change — and there's no problem in redirecting your professional goals and interests accordingly.



What You’ll Learn:

• Peter's "uncommon" steps to a fulfilling career


• The power of seasons and why you should embrace yours at any given moment


• Why you should forget the "Technical vs Managerial Role" debate


• The importance of learning from bad role models (yeah...you read it right)


• The key to professional success for young engineers


• How to realistically measure your professional growth


• How to find the career path you want to head down


• The only trait you need to develop new skills to apply at work


• How companies benefit from helping their people develop new skills


• How to independently develop skills outside of work (and why you should!)


• The entrepreneurial and managerial mindsets


• Peter's advice for engineers building their careers


• Why you should have a "To-be List" just as you have a “To-do List”
