Mona Williams Wal-Mart's VP
of Corporate Communications recently was a guest lecturer in my University of Texas pr strategies class. She offered
great advice on personal strategies for success in our careers.....
-
The ability to write, edit and spell is imperative. (She
tests all prospective employees)
-
Dress professionally and up to the job you aspire for.
-
Be continually well read. She suggests the Wall Street
Journal, Time and Newsweek hard copy or online.
-
Have business acumen. Understand the business environment and
what drives your organization to success.
-
Don't be all about yourself. Be actively supportive to all
you work with.
Great advice.
