Mastering Objectives: Workplace Lessons from Marketing Guru Breana Jones

In this episode, Felicia is joined by the incredible marketing executive, Breana Jones, to discuss the importance of setting objectives in your career and how to navigate the workplace. With over 20 years of experience, Breana shares her insights on the evolution of her thought process around setting objectives and the impact it has had on her career. They delve into the importance of aligning your objectives with the broader goals of the company and how to actively seek feedback to ensure you are on the right track. The conversation also touches on the significance of creating a safe space for your team and the power of under-promising and over-delivering. If you’re looking for valuable advice on how to thrive at work and take control of your career, this episode is a must-listen. So grab your notepad and get ready to take some notes as Felicia and Breana drop some serious gems.

Key Takeaways in this Episode:
  1. Setting objectives is a crucial part of career development and should align with both personal and company goals. It’s important to regularly reassess and adjust objectives to ensure they are still relevant and impactful.
  2. Feedback is essential for growth and success. Actively seeking feedback and having open conversations with managers and colleagues can help identify areas for improvement and ensure objectives are on track.
  3. It’s important to find a company that aligns with your values and supports your growth. If an organization does not value your contributions or align with your values, it may be time to consider other opportunities.
