I’ve worked with a client today, helping him to prepare for a senior executive appointment. He told me that the reason he chose me was that my web site is very personal, it was clear who he would be working with, rather than a faceless organisation. That’s great feedback to have. I’ve never wanted to portray myself as something, or someone I’m not. I want to be authentic.
So why am I sharing this?
Because I want to encourage you to be authentic – what would it be like to be able to be the person you want to be at work? The more we understand ourselves the easier it is to be ourselves.
Too often we have to be someone we aren’t at work, to show aspects of our personality that aren’t our preferred ways, and we can do this, but at some cost.
If this interests you in some way, do please get in touch so we can explore it further, or post a comment below.
