Define Your Ideal Employer: Size
What size organization do you want to work for? Size is generally broken down into small, medium and large.
What size organization is right for you? Much depends on your personal preferences. It also depends on your personality and work style.
Here are some questions to help you explore the idea of organizational size:
Do I feel most comfortable in a small, intimate team setting?
Do I prefer a workplace where I am exposed to lots of new people on a regular basis?
Do I rely on my employer to organize and fund my professional development?
Can I take responsibility for my own professional training and growth?
Do I prefer a structured workplace?
Do I prefer a flexible environment?
Do I value a flexible schedule and work arrangements?
Do I prefer the reliability of working for a large, stable organization?
It really is a matter of personal preference and matching the size of the organization with your personality and work style.
Until next week, here’s to your continued success!
