The PJ Program: Introductory idea

I have just been inspired by reading the Wharton business school student profiles and their programs. It strikes me that business school programs are very much about giving you the tools to be successful: of and by themselves, there is no guarantee of success. Many programs talk about "grooming" talent and developing people. If that is the case, then why not create my very own personal development program and just stick to it?

It will be cheaper, and customized for myself and my own development. It is arguably more challenging than following a path well-trodden. It is completely relevant. I can use this plan to strengthen my own strengths, and work on my weaknesses, and also to give me the tools to become more successful.

Of course, an MBA can be incorporated into the big development plan for my own, but it should not (and will not) be a goal unto itself, but will only be part of the bigger picture.

I'll use this blog to keep track of my personal career development, and create my own program. The PJ Program, customized to bring out the very best in this bloke.
