Identify your key result areas

There are seldom more than 5 or 7 key result areas in people’s job and you need to know your outcome.

In every job, there are a lot of things you can do in addition to your tasks. But not all the activities will help you to grow, be noticed and promoted.

That is why you must identify the key areas you want to grow and work on per year and have a regular check if you achieved them or not.

The domain x.com pointed yesterday to a page with one character “X”. Today it redirects to the twitter domain and soon we might see the dead of the bird and the birth of the symbol “X”. This change will be followed carefully and we can all learn from the mistakes Elon Musk will do during this transition. He already is very famous with the mistakes he did during his first weeks in the company. Can the company survive such a transformation is another open question? There are already some competitors like Mastodon and Instagram very own Threads. But the vision of Elon Musk is to turn this app more like WeChat, the Chinese mega app that combines many features. The issue with such a combination of too many businesses and too many regulations might play a crucial role in the downfall of the company. Many times s
