Experience & Judgment

The two are often perceived complementary but I am quite confident each of us has run into someone (executive) who has the necessary experience but lacks the judgment and others who have demonstrate the sharp acumen with limited experience. Experience usually delivers judgment although there isn’t a guarantee of one from the other… but together they balance each other.

I have personified judgment as the tangible outcome from experience and a resume the tangible result of experience. A while ago I had referenced PIE (Performance, Image and Exposure) as my success model. It would be to ones better Judgment (performance, image) to identify their own success model and prioritize opportunities and options as they acquire varied Experiences (exposure).
