Early on in my career, one of my mentors told me to become an expert at something. You make yourself valuable and possibly indispensable especially if you become quite knowledgeable about something that not everyone in your field knows much about.

This makes sense! Definitely field dependent, but becoming the one percent of a specific skill/topic makes you hard to ignore.
