>> When you have an opportunity to work for
a large corporation and it has a product
or service that you truly
believe in, it's an easy fit.
And it really becomes a matter of how well you
apply yourself and how well you put yourself
into what one of my mentors within
the company called the pie concept,
performance, image and exposure.
You can't rely on any one of
those three components but,
if you can find the right balance of
your own work performance and work ethic,
your image on how you present yourself to
your co-workers, to your immediate managers,
to other managers, to other leadership
within the company and then exposure.
Not just being someone who shows up between
eight and five and is ready to go no earlier
than eight and is out the door exactly at five.
Are you involved with any of the
community involvement projects
that your company gets involved with?
How engaged are you with your work?
Do you offer yourself beyond
your eight to five structure?
So exposure, putting yourself out there.
And so that pie, performance, image,
exposure, if you can put that all together,
there's a recipe for success at
least within the Toyota structure.
