Work From The Inside Out 90: You Can Choose Your Own Destiny with Jayne Mattson
At 14 years old, Jayne Mattson’s father gave her a copy of Dale Carnegie’s book “How To Win Friends and Influence People,” telling her, “you can choose your own destiny.” He was her biggest champion. His encouragement meant the world to Jayne, especially since she and her five siblings had lost their mother the year before.
Jayne pursued a career in the medical device industry as a quality assurance documentation systems engineer, staying with the same company for 23 years. When an opportunity for a layoff package arose, she grabbed it. Jayne reinvented herself to step into work that she truly loved, which included managing and developing people.
Today, Jayne is an author, consultant, and speaker on career management, relationship building, and confidence development. She inspires professionals to take charge of their lives, develop professional relationships, and build sustainable confidence for career and life success.
