We all dream of working with inspiring leaders and amazing bosses. But how often do we focus on leading ourselves first? Many see leadership as something others do, but the truth is, it starts with you.
Most seek praise and validation from others, and yet real growth comes from within. Leading yourself is about finding your 'why', the reason that keeps you going, even when no one's cheering you on. And it can be as simple as feeling that you are capable of so much more, as if you have hidden potential you want to unlock. The most successful people I've worked with, and the clients I've supported with the greatest breakthroughs, take action even when things are hard. They understand that action creates momentum, and momentum leads to growth. As you think about what you want for your career this year, remember this: becoming your best self isn’t about waiting to discover who you are. It’s about actively taking steps towards creating the person you want to be.
You’ve got this!

🎉 Client case study of the week
The Context: Our Career Success Fast Track™ client had previously struggled to position herself for new, senior level positions and articulate her value in interviews. The Success: The new year has only just begun and she has gained immediate traction. She just completed her final round interview for her target role, was invited for another interview process with a different organization and has 2 potential consulting opportunities in the works through her network. The Strategy: We focused heavily on improving her networking outreach efforts to unlock more opportunities away from applications as she transitions to this next phase in her career. We improved her communication by practicing her elevator pitch, interview answers and how she articulated her value. She also doubled down on the 1:1 support with our talent acquisition and recruitment experts, Jordan and Amanda, prior to the new year to position herself best right out of the gate in 2025. It's paying off big time!
