Career development is our own responsibility. Luckily for us, there are a multitude of resources (and people!) to help us along the journey. Robin Helfer, Chief Financial and Operations Officer, is one such person.
Robin knows a thing or two about career development and championing oneself. With a rich career of more than 25 years, in which she’s been a valued partner responsible for the operational and financial aspects of the businesses she’s impacted, Robin is uniquely positioned to give advice on how to build a fulfilling career.
From networking and making authentic connections with people within and outside of your company to pushing yourself and getting out of your comfort zone, Robin encourages others to always look for opportunities to learn and grow. That includes the more logistical tasks of knowing and staying on top of “the numbers,” professionally and personally, and setting goals that “have teeth” (S.M.A.R.T.) related to the strategy of your company. It also means making courageous moves, like showcasing your mastery over your area of the business, working cross-functionally, or volunteering for opportunities that augment your skillset and make you a better professional.
And that’s just the tip of the iceberg! Take a listen to gain more career advice from Robin and Tara on this episode of the Fierce Lab podcast.
