We must learn to recognize how environments change us and evaluate whether our transformations align with our true selves. The journey of Andy in The Devil Wears Prada illustrates the tension between ambition and purpose.
• Ambition has a shadow side that can reveal unexpected aspects of ourselves
• The tradeoffs required when trying to "have it all" necessitate hard choices
• Transformational relationships often come from seeing leaders behind the scenes
• Watch the people you spend the most time with—you'll become more like them
• Middle managers need to stop trying to impress and start developing others
• Adding value comes from knowledge and communication, not just doing more
• Maintain activities that keep you grounded through periods of transformation
• Your values must remain consistent even as you grow and evolve
