Life cycle of business overview

Life cycle of business overview

- Every single person, every animal, every organism on this little planet of ours has a life cycle. Businesses and careers have a life cycle too. All of us are born, we grow up, we mature, we get old, and ultimately, we all die. Don't cry, it's life. How long we live, nobody knows. That one is out of our control. What you get out of that life cycle you do have some control over. Understanding where you are in your career life cycle will help you make better decisions, which can lead to a longer and more rewarding career life cycle. Each phase of your career life cycle will require a slightly different mindset as you contemplate the challenges you'll face. In this lesson, we're going to talk about each phase of your career life cycle and what you should be thinking about.
