Do you have what it takes to be virtually layoff-proof? Not everyone does. Match some of your own qualities against those of indespensible employees, who are likely to have the following characteristics:

  • A "systems" orientation to problem solving -- they see beyond the surface of problems and don't oversimplify complex issues
  • An "owners" mentality, even when they are not the owner -- they see themselves as responsible for the success of the whole enterprise
  • A readiness to interact with others (but only in certain ways) and to help others (but only when it's absolutely needed
  • A relative freedom from most organizational tensions and conflicts, showing little status consciousness and avoiding turf battles
  • A positive can-do attitude
  • An adaptability to change

This book provides advice on how to make yourself indespensible to your company and in so doing make yourself virtually lay-off proof.
