The StrategyDriven Professional establishes a clear personal vision, embodies inspiring values, and aggressively strives to achieve his or her goals. This commitment to excellence is reflected in the professional’s every decision and action; enabling him or her to outperform those others not so committed. StrategyDriven Professional is therefore dedicated to providing the personal and career development advice, tools, and practices needed to accelerate our member’s careers and personal goals achievement. But don’t believe us… believe the numbers.

In our experience, a StrategyDriven Professional achieved a compounded annual percentage rate (CAPR) growth in income of 6.24 percent1 between 1998 and 2010 as compared with the U.S. national average of 2.87 percent2 – more than double that experienced by the average worker and substantially higher than the rate of inflation3 !

StrategyDriven Professionals aspire to achieve and contribute more than their current station dictates. They are driven by the opportunity to be and do more. These professionals constantly prepared themselves for the work to be done today and the opportunities that may present themselves tomorrow. StrategyDriven Professionals relish a journey that requires hard work and dedication, one in which success is not guaranteed and is not always achieved but is worthy of their efforts. In some instances, these individuals knowingly accept setbacks for personal reasons or to eliminate barriers to their long-term future growth and achievement.

Individual career aspirations are uniquely different and increasingly difficult to achieve in today’s hyper competitive workplace environment. At the StrategyDriven Professional, we believe creating an actionable, forward-looking strategy to achieve one’s professional and career goals is critical to success. Such a plan ensures an individual’s limited resources focus on those specific activities needed to excel and are not expended on less worthy endeavors.
