Business Development
Like with most of the things I'm interested in I've never really had any real training or classes on the subjects, except for maybe psychology and motorcycles. From the psych classes I learned so much and it helped me think differently about a lot of things, with the motorcycles I just didn't want to kill myself.
Computers and Technology is one of the areas that I'm really good at and probably where I've had the least amount of formal training. Most of the stuff I learned was either picked up from my Dad, a book, or just plain trial and error. I think I've done quite well on just that. Another area that I'm becoming more interested in is Business, I guess more specifically the business side of technology. I haven't had any formal training in this area either but I'm learning a lot from all these books I'm reading. Even though I have gotten the gist of everything I've read so far its probably time for me to either looking into some professional development courses or really try and sit down with some one to see if they can mentor me.
Right now I'm in a situation where I can definitely see my future plans taking shape right in front of me. My business manager was let go about 2 months ago and since then I've been doing little things to fill in her void. Which has been fairly easy to do since she apparently didn't have a clue herself. So by now I've made a lot more strides in the 2 months than she had in her 2 years. So now I'm getting the interest of the president of the company to possibly take over her spot, although it hasn't been official. There are two major projects that are standing in my way right now before I feel I've made a good enough impression, I'm not sure what he thinks. One is a trade show we have to do in Nov. and the other is an ERP implementation. Going from a mainly techie background to a business position is posing quite a challenge since I have to try and learn so much in so little time.
