Building Initiative and Self-Motivation
Don't wait for the perfect moment. Take the moment and make it perfect. — Zoey Sayward
Overview
Initiative and self-motivation aren't just buzzwords — they're the qualities that set top performers apart and build a fulfilling career. Initiative is taking action without being told, spotting opportunities and stepping up to challenges. Self-motivation is the internal drive that keeps you moving when no one is pushing. This PowerShop helps you build both.
