25.01.2022 How’s Your Online Executive Presence? A client called me yesterday to tell me about a recent client meeting she attended on Zoom where one of the team members was so passive that people practically forgot she was on the call. She happened to be one of the directors of the company too! Okay, maybe she was having a bad day or dealing with a serious case of Zoom fatigue?... I totally get it..but how you show upespecially when you’re showing up online which does involve a new set of communication and self awareness skills is critical to inspiring confidence and trust in others. I call it "Online Executive Presence." Our communication channels have changed, so you need to change, too. Consider these strategies; 1. Focus on your camera, not your colleagues 2. Maintain a strong voice 3. Frame yourself wisely ( make sure your background or desk aren't messy and distracting) 4. Dress like you were going to a meeting! (time to ditch the PJ's) 5. Turn off microphone when not talking! For more information on how you can elevate your online presence click link below. https://bit.ly/2TLMdQp

25.01.2022 Maintenance is the key to our success! In our society we're focused on dramatic achievements. Starting a new business. Running a marathon. A wardrobe overhaul. These are all great, but what we should really be focusing our energy on is maintenance. It's not sexy....it's not always insta-worthy, but maintenance is perhaps the biggest achievement of all. What are you doing today and every day that gives space to your goals? Whether it's continuous education, keeping in touch ...with your network or maintaining your fitness, maintenance is what gives us all long-term courage. It can seem as if we're 'failing' when we look around and see others broadcasting their milestones. But true success is about the daily actions, big or small, that not only get us where we want to be but KEEP us there. It's easy to forget this, when we're distracted on the next big thing. Celebrate your achievements, absolutely! But don't forget to celebrate the work needed to maintain them. #executivecoaching #careercoaching #professionalbranding

21.01.2022 One of the most important things I recognised through all the uncertainty is to keep ourselves moving in the right direction. I know it can be so hard at times! I have been experiencing it too! I found ‘Momentum’ is a powerful thing. Small steps and incremental efforts in a consistent direction WILL lead to results. I have found this to be true with exercise, diet, learning a new skill, home-schooling and of course running a business. ... It’s crucial to not just ‘set and forget’ our goals, but to ask ourselves: Are they still relevant? Am I moving towards them? Do I need to create new goals? What have my past achievements and failures with my existing goals taught me? Be sure your constant effort and energy is being invested into exactly what YOU want to create, and taking you where YOU want to go. Reach out if you need some motivation to get momentum in your career.

18.01.2022 There is no doubt that we are living and working in interesting times! Who would have thought when we entered this new decade that the entire world would shut down and we'd be fighting over toilet paper? Now, many will be fighting over jobs and career opportunities. We are going to have the biggest pool of talent and fewer jobs and opportunities available. Those who have been building their professional brand and reputation consistently will be more inclined to be tapped on t...he shoulder for board roles, investment opportunities or executive positions. https://www.linkedin.com//why-building-your-professional-b #professionalbranding #executivecoach #positioning

17.01.2022 The last few weeks for many of us especially in Victoria for lock down 2 has been very hard for everyone. I am seeing an increase need for trusted advisors amongst my clients. This isn't a new thing for c-suite females, many know the value and need to invest in external support have found their own team of consultants that can assist them in all areas of their life. The importance of having someone you can trust, confide in and provide clarity when you are in the pressure cooker. A trusted Advisor is the new coach ensuring you have the right mix of self awareness, empathy, inclusiveness, wisdom and assertiveness! If you need support please feel free to reach out. #trustedadvisor #executivepresence #positioning

13.01.2022 Whether it's LinkedIn or a website or social media, so many companies and people have put up with out-of-date images that no longer reflect who they are or where they're heading. 2020 has forced many people to take stock and do a review of their brand, both personally and professionally. This leads me to introduce @shootingstarrphotography who will be updating many of my clients' branding and website imagery. She comes with many years of experience displaying a fresh a...nd distinctive flair. Her talent lies in capturing the essence of your brand and a visual storyteller with an eye for detail and a knack for putting people at ease.

It’s more important now than ever before to think commercially. Now is your opportunity sta...nd out because you’re great at what you do. Now is your time to establish a career path that works for you! 5 Tips to pivot with Confidence & Presence; Read in comments below: 5 tips to pivot with presence and confidence: 1. Planning. Strategy is the key to everything we do. 2. Spend time with YOU! Take time to get to know yourself and find out what you want. What is your unique value and which industry will value you? 3.
