As a result of globalization, outsourcing, contracting, downsizing, recession and even natural disaster, we live with a lack of job security..!
The only job security we have today is our commitment to continuous personal improvement..!
We can create the ultimate job security by becoming less dependent on the organization for which we work and more dependent on our own resources.
