// Accéder au résumé écrit de l'épisode, à télécharger //  Construire son propre parcours n'est pas seulement réservé aux autres Cette semaine, j'accueille Charlotte Appietto, toujours souriante et pleine d'énergie !  Après 2 ans dans le conseil et quelques missions en freelance, elle décide de créer Pose Ta Dem'. Le nom parle de lui-même, non ? Son objectif est clair : devenir la référence sur le sujet de la reconversion professionnelle. J'ai moi-même travailler (en stage) pendant 1 an, à jongler entre audit et conseil... "80% des consultants se raccrochent à la prochaine mission. Ils se disent que tout ira mieux demain. Ce n'est pas le bon esprit à avoir." Ça m'a rappelé pas mal de choses.  Pourquoi s'imposer un travail que l'on n'aime pas alors que tout le monde a aujourd'hui la possibilité de construire son propre parcours et faire ses propres choix ? Et ce n'est pas un caprice de jeunes. Ça ne veut pas non plus toujours dire "ok, je me lance en freelance". L'idée est de pouvoir trouver un travail qui a du sens à nos yeux. Et pour ça, il n'y a pas de règles, ni de codes.  Alors oui, ce n'est pas toujours aussi simple qu'on le dit. Il faut travailler pour ça et anticiper la prochaine étape. C'est justement ce qu'à réussi à faire Charlotte. Un mini burn-out en juillet 2016 et c'est le déclic. En septembre de la même année, elle pose sa démission pour travailler 8 mois dans une startup. Ces 8 mois sont intenses. Elles en profitent pour développer différents projets à côté de son job, les soirs et les week-ends. On y revient dans le podcast. Et une fois lancée, c'est quoi la suite ?  Structurer son activité et passer à la vitesse supérieure Identifier un problème que l'on rencontre soi-même et y répondre est une des méthodes pour lancer son projet. Et c'est ce qu'elle a fait. Comment est-elle en train de scaler et développer son activité ? Elle propose de la formation en ligne, en plus des coachings inviduels.  C'est plus de volume pour elle et ses clients ont ainsi accès à sa méthode et à un accompagnement moins cher qu'un coaching individuel. Elle travaille aussi sur d'autres moyens pour se développer : réseau partenaires, méthode, séminaire, ... On en parle dans l'épisode. Le modèle d'abonnement appliqué à une activité de freelance, c'est possible ?  De mon côté, j'y réfléchis de plus en plus. Alors j'en ai profité pour lui poser toutes mes questions.  On a aussi parlé de plein d'autres sujets Ses projets en 2019 et sa vision de Pose Ta Dem' Les étapes par lesquelles elle est passée pour développer sa communauté ? (de très bons conseils) Coaching et Mentoring pour progresser dans son activité (et pas seulement quand ça ne va pas) La répartition de son temps de travail et ses conseils d'organisation Pourquoi créer du contenu est indispensable : salarié, freelance, entrepreneur. Bref, pour tout le monde ! Utiliser son nom ou créer une marque quand on se lance en freelance Quelques références Marketing Mania (sa chaîne Youtube) LiveMentor (newsletter) Side Hustle School (newsletter) Scott Halford (newsletter) Amy Porterfield Ses outils préférés : Canva, Toggle, Pocket et Loom Side Hustle - Chris Guillebeau Profession Slasheur - Marielle Barbe L'Alchimiste - Paulo Coehlo Tu vas t'en mettre plein les poches - Jen Sicero Pour échanger avec Charlotte Appietto.  (1) Aller faire un tour sur Pose Ta Dem' et rejoindre son groupe privé Facebook.  (2) La contacter sur LinkedIn. 

Scott Halford weighs in with Jeff on the importance of emotional intelligence.  Our brains are built to protect us. If we perceive a threat, we are more likely to avoid that danger.  But what happens when we feel threatened by trying to close? Is that fear real? How do we retrain our brain to recognize real fears from false fears? Having that emotional awareness can make you a better salesperson. ===================================== Get your sales question answered on The Buyer's Mind podcast!

We begin to get a feel for a room from the first step we take inside. We feel temperature, light, air quality, and aesthetics. After spending time co-occupying that space with other people, we begin to feel and sense a group vibe. We’ve all been to parties that should be awesome but aren’t or family dinners that check all the boxes to make it great but it’s not. These same experiences shape the workplace. Are the feelings and vibes real or perceived? Does it matter? When employees come to work every day, they are met with a feeling. The office lighting, the floor plan, the general comfort, and the demeanor of colleagues all play a key role in shaping how employees feel about the environment they work in. This general feeling when applied universally to all employees is a large driver for company culture. But some organizations are met with frustration when they go through the motions checking all the great-place-to-work checkboxes and find their employees still perceive a lackluster experience. Whose fault is this? It doesn’t matter. At the end of the day, the company leadership maintains primary responsibility for how the workplace feels and feelings are subjective. The reason so many organizations fall short of cultivating a great company culture is because they can’t get past the fact that it doesn’t matter how many great things the organization does on culture. Most important is how the employees perceive the company. The million-dollar question: how do we fix it? Books can and have been written trying to answer this very question. However, one of the best places to start is with communication. We live in a society that has embraced text-based forms of communication. Most of the communication that happens with in businesses occurs in written form. To try and turn back the clocks and shy away from an emotion-poor, communication median is pointless. The best alternative companies have is to shift to a concerted effort of infusing emotion into written language. In a podcast with Scott Halford, he brought to light another concept that can help craft a positive perception of an organization’s culture. Backed with research from his book, Scott suggests that creating a brain-friendly environment will drastically increase the productivity and efficiency of employees. To that end, companies must both embrace change allowing for the transition to a brain-friendly environment and create a place where progress is measured and rewarded. To listen to the full podcast at Forging Employee Experience and connect with Scott visit www.completeintelligence.com or www.scotthalford.com. Molding another person’s perception takes a huge amount of effort. Companies can’t take shortcuts and change doesn’t happen overnight. By listening to employees and understanding how they are feeling, organizations can know if their efforts to saturate communication with emotion and create a brain-friendly culture are successful. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/forgeant/support

Your brain is the center of who you are. It controls your body, your health, your focus and more. If you want more from it, you have to give it what it needs. On today’s show, Dave recaps lessons Scott Halford shared on Episodes 366-369 from his book, “Activate Your Brain: How Understanding Your Brain Can Improve Your Work - and Your Life”

Author Scott Halford talks about the impact food and exercise have on the health of our brain. Our body manufactures none of the nutrients our brain needs to operate well every day, they all come from food, water, and exercise. On today’s show, you’ll learn how your body and brain are linked and why, when you are constantly in a high stressed situation, the result is usually physical sickness. You’ll also learn a simple breathing technique that can reset the stress response in our brain. You’ll also learn the single most important thing you can do for your brain.

Author Scott Halford says when it comes to the health of your brain, the captain of the ship is sleep. Whether you feel like you have time for it or not, your brain needs you to rest. You severely limit your ability to concentrate and focus when you don’t get enough sleep, and a chronic lack of sleep can even lead to dementia. Sleep is an eraser of stress, and it’s also a consolidator. It allows us to download and consolidate all the thoughts and memories from the day, so we become smarter when we sleep.

Our whole world is busy, complicated and filled with distractions. The temptation is to multitask in order to get it all done. But our brains don’t operate that way. You can only have one conscious thought at a time – that’s it. Multi-tasking is a myth. You can quickly switch between two things, but instead of getting two things done at once, you'll only be doing two things unwell. Author Scott Halford says it’s important to manage the distractions if accuracy and excellence are crucial to the task at hand. Turn of everything that can pop-up into your visual perspective.

Author Scott Halford says how you look at something can predict how your body responds to it. If you have a big proposal coming up and “sigh,” that’s an indication you’re telling yourself, “This sucks and I don’t want to do it.” But if you have a “bring it on!” attitude it can be very energizing. You will begin to have a different relationship with the things that stress you out. Your mindset does matter. You’re feeding your brain either with a positive or negative message. Your brain is going to respond to that priming, and you will act accordingly.
