William White: Success Secrets You Forgot You Knew

William White, professor of industrial engineering and management sciences at the McCormick School of Engineering and former CEO of Bell and Howell Company, says that extraordinary success starts on the job, whether it is your initial job or your 20th. Beginning a new assignment, the impetus is on how to prove your value immediately. White demonstrates how to prioritize, network effectively, make more effective decisions, and make the most of feedback and criticism. He also discusses skill development, claiming that listening and writing notes are the keys to early success. He offers a clear strategy for taking charge during the first days, weeks and months on any job. White gave this presentation as part of the McCormick Office of Corporate Relations Mornings at McCormick series.
