Remember in the early 90s when the newspapers were full of articles asking “Is it okay to have multiple employers? Will it look bad on your resume?” The consensus emerged: It’s fine to have multiple employers as long as the quality of the work you produce is high.
Gen X disrupted the concept of work by questioning loyalty to a single employer.
Millenials have further disrupted work by questioning the value of producing work.
Value has been reassigned from the product of your work, to you.
This is the reason I emphasize leadership development with each and every client.
The leadership development framework enables us to seamlessly partner whether you’re a professional, public figure or entrepreneur.
As information economy leaders, your capacity for personal growth, diplomacy, authenticity and innovation are what makes the difference:
It’s the difference between who completes the leap from senior management to director level and who doesn’t.
It’s the difference between who captivates funders and who hits a brick wall.
Work no longer requires you to serve one master employer, work no longer even requires you to be rigorously tested in every aspect of what you produce.
Work now requires that you grow continuously as a person.
Delightful news to some, daunting news to others: work is now self-discovery.
Achieving your next tier of success calls on you to heal the early wounds, locate and display your smartest thinking and move ever more closely into your highest self.
We do this work together, with skill and focus designed to hit your next big milestone.
By pairing your leadership development with high quality tools like senior level interview tactics or sales pipeline development we accelerate your “hard” results (income, title, funders, team, launch, etc) and get the outcomes you need.
I know this because I live it forward with each client: no matter how far you’ve come, you have the ability for further growth and leadership.
The future of work….is you.
