What do you do? What should we know about you? How can you contribute to this team, project, or company?
Questions like these are ubiquitous in professional settings from the moment you meet someone at a networking event, to interviewing for your dream job, and eventually communicating your value to your teams, colleagues, leaders, and clients. Yet many of us feel uncomfortable, vain, or at a loss when asked to talk about ourselves.
Imagine stepping into any situation and feeling 100% confident in your ability to articulate your value and the impact you can make for your team, your company, a client, or a prospective employer?
In this workshop, you will learn the difference between sharing your skill-set and articulating your value.
You will understand how to position yourself to do more of what you excel at and love. You will develop a script to confidently share those areas of excellence with others and help them understand the impact you can make for them and your organizations.
Develop a blueprint to speak up, own your power and value, and share it with others without guilt or unease.
For managers and leaders, this process can pave the way for better communication, more executive delegation, and increased engagement and satisfaction within your teams.
