It 's quite obvious that there are many managers out there who are in different starting points of their careers. Knowing where to start when you move along your career can be a bit 'tricky.

Please remember, wherever you are the ladder of success, there is always something you can develop, regardless of experience level you have and the interest to take your growth in the future.

It can be much more difficult when you feel things are not going well as it could and then try to pass the blame of all that it takes. How do your employees, external influences, time, too (we know!).
