Tom Henricksen is a Development Services Manager at Zirous, an established Oracle Platinum Partner that works closely with clients to tailor innovative solutions for their business problems through Oracle's Core Technology implementations. Sounds complicated...probably is. But that isn't what Tom spoke to members of the Rotary Club of West Polk County during his presentation at their regular meeting. You see, Tom is also an IT Career Coach and a published author. He has studied peoples careers and has some insight on how making a few educated decisions early in life can help make for a more profitable and fulfilling life over the course of a career.
Henricksen recently had published his latest book; "Cracking the Career Code" (available on Amazon HERE). The book is geared toward young men and women who will be graduating, or have recently graduated from high school. It would probably be a good read for their parents as well. In fact, subtitles the book "The Guide to Understanding Your Options After High School"...which sounds like something many folks might have appreciated twenty years prior. The book focuses on three "P's" that will help people make a career choice, with less chance of having massive debt without an identified career path after college. The three P words that Henricksen focuses on are: Passion, Perform, and Profit.
He suggests that if these three things, which are described at length in the book, are seriously considered when making education and career choices, it will enhance your chances having a challenging and satisfying career. In short, this information can help you Crack your Career Code!
The West Polk County Rotarians thank Tom for his presentation and hope that his new book is not only a good seller, but that it will also help a few people achieve their career goals.
