No one wants to get a serious injury. And we especially don’t want this to happen at work. Employers hold a legal obligation to ensure their workplace follows all health and safety procedures. A workplace injury could put you out of the job for a while, or even cause long term damage. If you’ve experienced a serious injury at work, you might not be sure what to do next.

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us.

In the climb from contributor to leader, the rules quietly change. If you’re aiming for the summit, the air gets thinner—and what got you here won’t be enough to get you to the top (a concept first popularized by Marshall Goldsmith in his book What Got You Here Won’t Get You There ). What made you successful early in your finance career—technical accuracy, sharp analysis, flawless execution—won’t be what carries you to the next level.

Last year, the global economic growth was roughly 3.0% and the global GDP was estimated at around $86.6 trillion, according to statistics published by Statista. At the moment, the global GDP growth is down to 2.4%. It can potentially go even further down before 2021. While this percentage may seem insignificant, it certainly isn’t. That’s because this less than-than-one percentage drop in global GDP amounts to $3.5 billion in lost economic output.
