So, what's the story with all the "famous" (whether overall or in a particular industry) who are a-holes?

I have not noticed any particular uptick in kindness among the stars. Can it be explained somehow?

I hope you write a follow up piece with suggestions on how a "star-in-the-making" should handle the inevitable: when the supervisor resents and undermines this would-be star's accomplishments. This reality is immensely upsetting people whose managers are tremendously insecure and masters at passive-aggression.

Self knowledge Knowing how to do your job is expected. You need to know how to manage your relationships, you long-term goals SHOULD be your long-term goals I think. Once again, thanks for this well written article. * * * * * <I>That's an interesting edit because it changes the meaning of the sentence in an intersting way. I actually meant there to be an implied "and" there. This would be a great grammar discussion for seventh graders. How putting in a comma or a conjunction changes the meaning of what you say. Anyway, I don't think relationships can be goals. They are ongoing. No end point. --Penelope</I> really good article. thank you.
you have a small typo
3. Self knowledge
Knowing how to do your job is expected. You need to know how to manage your relationships, you long-term goals
SHOULD be your long-term goals I think.
Once again, thanks for this well written article.
