This article was originally published by The Architect's Guide as "The Two Qualities You Need For Architecture Career Success."In a survey of 104 Chief Executive Officers reported in Success Magazine a few years ago, they were presented with 20 qualities of an ideal employee, and asked to select the most important.86% of the senior executives selected two qualities as being more important for career success and advancement than any others:1. The ability to set priorities, to separate the relevant from the irrelevant.
2. The ability to get the job done fast, to execute quickly.There is nothing that will help you more in your career than to get the reputation for being the kind of person who gets the most important job done quickly and well.Unfortunately I encounter many people in the architecture industry that seem to ignore both qualities above. Yet they wonder why their career has stagnated or they have been passed over for promotions or not got the job they want. I discussed in a previous article, How To Write The Perfect Architecture Resume, the importance of focusing on the key elements of your job application. The same is true for your role within an architecture office: concentrate on what matters. The rest will automatically fall into place.Â
