Podcasts about thought leader thursday

I realized something recently.   There is one thing that has never been in short supply in our lifetimes. Statistics. Trends. Patterns. Throughout our career and lives, we continuously bombarded with these. X% of people were laid off during the pandemic. Y% of people are quitting their jobs in the Great Resignation. Women make Z% of what men make. Let me ask you...   What do you do with these? Do you pay attention to them? Ignore them completely? Talk about them incessantly? Make career moves based on them? Justify your decisions to yourself based on them?   As the 1% of talent, what do these statistics mean for your career?   Listen now as I share with you how I have used these throughout my career to achieve my goals faster than anyone else thought possible!   Would you like to participate in the live recording of this podcast, including getting a chance to ask Stella your most pressing career question?

In this episode, Why You Felt Nothing After Your Last Promotion? Recently I was speaking to a new VP at a Fortune 100 company. When I met her, she had been Sr Director for about a year.   We made the VP role happen in 6 months.   Once the deal was done, I asked her how she felt.   She admitted, “I don't know, Stella. I mean…I guess I'm happy. But I thought I would feel more. I don't really… I feel like I should be more excited than I actually am.”   Have you ever felt this way?   Worked really hard to get promoted or land a new role and then felt…   Nothing?   Listen to today's episode to know why.   Would you like to participate in the live recording of this podcast, including getting a chance to ask Stella your most pressing career question?

Let's try this a different way   I know you worked tremendously hard to get to where you are now in your career.   You may have - Worked 13 hour days - Pulled countless all nighters to complete projects and presentations. - Sacrificed taking full vacations - Rearranged family plans to accommodate work expectations - Hopped on several planes with little notice to solve problems   You may then think to yourself… - If this is what it took me to get to this level of Sr. Manager or Director … - Can I really do 2X to get to the next level? - Do I even still have that much drive left in me? - Can I do 2X the the long hours? 2X the stress and overwhelm?   I want you to know… YOU DO NOT HAVE TO!   This idea that you need to put in twice the hours to get to VP or SVP   To have more impact in your career   To make $500K in total comp   It is a myth. A lie.   There is another way.   You can work smarter, not harder!   This week, we have pulled snippets from past episodes that will help you reframe your thinking around this.   Would you like to participate in the live recording of this podcast, including getting a chance to ask Stella your most pressing career question?

In this episode, we discuss Do You Have A Career Timer?   I have always been an early riser... most mornings I am up at 5AM.   When I first started cultivating this, I would set an alarm - a blaring, hard to ignore signal that would jolt me out of my dream state.   Oh and there was no snooze button.   Do you have an alarm set for your career?   Any blaring, hard to ignore signals that jolt you awake when you've gotten comfortable?   Perhaps you already... - Achieved a great base salary at mid 100K so most needs are met; - Work at a great, well known company with amazing people; - Attained the level of Director;   But you also know... you want more.   The higher you go in your career, the easier it becomes - To plateau. - To prioritize comfort over growth. - To become severely risk averse.   You will need a career alarm clock.   Listen in to today's episode to learn how to apply this concept in your career so you can land a skip level promotion in under 12 months.   Would you like to participate in the live recording of this podcast, including getting a chance to ask Stella your most pressing career question?

Do you know anyone who makes $500K in her Corporate Career? I don't mean, literally. I mean do you know anyone intimately. In your inner circle. Someone you can actually observe closely. For many high-achieving women, the answer is NO. And so most women have no idea about how to actually go about this. No idea about what kind of woman actually does this.... Without ending up ill, Without sacrificing relationship with her spouse and children, Without losing herself completely. In today's episode, we discussed what kind of woman gets to have this career and life.

In this session, we discuss How To Decide When It Is Time To Move On Deciding whether to stay at a company or leave can be one of the toughest career decisions we make. If logging into work makes you cry or feel sick, then you already know what you need to do. But, I am talking about you... - You who is in that ""in between"" state... - Where on the surface everything seems to be going well. - You are already highly compensated. - You can already find some meaning in the work you do. - You work with amazingly smart people. And yet... - You can't seem to shake this feeling that there is more. - More growth. More leadership. More to learn. More ways to develop. - And of course, more money. Because to do the things you really want to do, more money is required. Sure you could stay here and see if you could ""meets expectations and 3% bonus"" your way to the top. But the thought of that feels so stifling. But at the same time, you are hearing all the right things from your leadership... And you've already put in so much here. Like the show Cheers, everyone already knows your name. Could you really start over somewhere else? Listen in to this episode to learn how to make the right decision when it comes to staying in a role or leaving. Forward to a high achieving female friend who you know needs to make a decision ASAP!

In this session, we discuss Money Mindset When You Already Make Six Figures A taboo topic for many, but our relationship to money is a strong indicator of so many other areas of our life.

There is so much to explore around limiting beliefs and cultivating an expansive money mindset.

In this session, we discuss  What Phase of Your Career Are You Anchored In? Recently, I was speaking with a client who had just recently experienced some big wins in our program. She had gone from mid 100K to $225K in 4 months and landed a role from seasoned Sr Manager to VP. After a few months in her new role, we scheduled a chat to catch up. In the course of our conversation, she shared a story with me. As I listened between the lines, I observed something very important. Yes, she had catapulted. But she still identified a lot with the Sr Manager. You see, I am not only interested in helping you land a promotion and make more money. I am interested in helping you totally transform your thinking so that your actions and words are in line with the higher levels of success you seek. I share the common ways your actions can betray your limited confidence in yourself and how to address this.  Would you like to participate in the live recording of this podcast, including getting a chance to ask Stella your most pressing career question?

In this session, we discuss WHAT SKILLSETS YOU ACTUALLY NEED ON YOUR TEAM. Last Thursday, we discussed what it means to actually be qualified, especially for a ambitious, skip-level role.

What skills or competencies do you actually need on your team? Where can you find them? In this episode, we will remove your biggest obstacle to finding the talent you need NOW so you can drive peak results in your organizations.

In this session, we discuss ARE YOU ACTUALLY QUALIFIED? There is one pattern I see among many high-performing women in Corporate that really bothers me. Can you guess what it is? Not going after an ambitious, thrilling opportunity even though you really, really want it. Saying to yourself, "They want 20 years experience and I have 13." or "They want someone with 8 year Retail Leadership experience and I don't have that." And then you take yourself out of the running. And it seems logical. Reasonable even. Because you should follow the rules, right?

One social media trend that emerged last year and continues to gain traction in 2016 is video live-streaming via mobile app. In this Thought Leader Thursday riff, Trevor Young explains the lay of the land when it comes to video live-streaming via mobile device and the opportunities it provides from a personal branding perspective. Trevor discusses the various apps currently available, including Periscope, MeVee, Blab and Facebook Live, as well as a new social audio platform called Anchor, which is starting to generate some buzz in digital circles.

In this Thought Leader Thursday mini-episode of REPUTATION REVOLUTION, host Trevor Young discusses discusses why it's important to stick to your principles when it comes to promotional tactics such as email marketing. Trevor provides the example of one recent email campaign that left him cold; rather than build a relationship or take him that extra step down the sales funnel, the email marketer lost Trevor's respect and his business.

In this Thought Leader Thursday mini-episode of Reputation Revolution, Trevor Young discusses why aspiring thought leaders need to devote time and head space to building out their 'clusters on influence' - those groups of people who are influential in their own right, who are connected, who might be media channels in their own right, who drive the conversation around issues and topics near and dear to your professional heart. Get to know who these people are, and set about connecting with them - over time, build a rapport with them; but, the key is to be genuine about it. This is not 'what's in it for you' territory, this is about becoming a valuable part of other people's networks and eco-systems.

In this short Thought Leader Thursday episode, Trevor Young discusses whether aspiring thought leaders need their own personal website (with a domain containing their name) or can they get by using their existing business website.
