🎉 Client case study of the week

The Context: Our Career Success Fast Track™ client had been dealing with a toxic workplace and wanted to make her next move. That said, her work environment had impacted her confidence and left her feeling unsure on how to position herself for success in her next steps.
​
​The Success: Within just 2 months of working together, she secured her new role and turned around a former rejection into her new job offer. She also learned how to transition away from her previous workplace on a high note despite the challenges she had faced there. Now, she's already off to a great start leveraging our onboarding best practices to prep for her new role.
​
​The Strategy: We focused on 3 key areas together. Firstly, we built back her confidence and overcame her biggest limiting beliefs. We talked through this 1:1 extensively and made sure she could put her best foot forward. Secondly, we solidified her personal brand and relationships. Instead of relying on passive approaches, we coached her to go to the source through networking and relationship building. Thirdly, we improved her communication skills and leadership presence. She was operating at a more senior level but had trouble having that come through in her communication. Together, we crafted the right stories to showcase her leadership and did 1:1 role-play practice to nail her delivery.
