Happy Holidays to you and your family! Lets close out 2020 with a reflection of the good things that have happened and the opportunities to be discovered in 2021!
In reflection, I am very appreciative of having the opportunity to work with my clients. They are smart, kind and ambitious leaders that are either in the process of a career change or have made them!
Are you taking a 100% break over the next couple of weeks? To be frank, I rarely let down completely over the holidays because it's too difficult to start up again come January. My strategy is to prioritize those actions that will need my full
attention come the new year.
What groundwork are you laying for your career strategy right now?
A STRATEGY-is your resume and profile ready for your outreach?
A CALENDAR-how will you show up and when?
A LIST OF YOUR CONNECTIONS-who will you reach out to and what do you say?
Let's have a complimentary discussion on what you can do RIGHT NOW to prepare for 2021. I'll show you an outreach strategy along with messaging templates to get started!
For those of you that may be overly humble or downplay your accomplishments...
Showing Confidence vs. Bragging
in Your Job Search
As candidates during the job search process, we want to present our confidence, value proposition and as the best choice for the role. To do this, we usually tell stories about our top accomplishments. But at what point does confidence sound like bragging?
There can be a fine line between the two both in the mind of the candidate and other conversation participants. In this article, we discuss how to show confidence without bragging as part of your career strategy.
In this digitally-fueled age of the customer, the explosive growth of cloud computing, the continued rise in business-managed IT spend and incredible leaps in data analytics and automation, have all served to change the landscape of where technology resides and who has access and influence over it.
And in this environment, a new generation of technology executives are leading the way by rewriting the culture of IT. Structure is being replaced by fluidity, and control is being swapped for influence as business leaders and technologists are finding new ways to collaborate and
deliver business value. All faster, safer, and more cost-effectively than ever before.
Invest in yourself as a leader and continue to develop leadership skills. Meet with your peers
for collaboration on successes and challenges and emerge with a confident, presentation of your value and business skills.
