The promotion process – manoeuvring your way through it successfully is hopefully an experience you will encounter on more than one occasion throughout your career. You’ve put in the hard graft to get here; shown you have what it takes and earned the right to be in the running.
Then comes that all-important call. You’ve done it! Goal achieved. Tick. So what now? Celebrate? Of course. And then what?
Have you considered how you’re going to show up now that you find yourself in this space? Perhaps you’ve taken the leap from Manager to Director or Partner. How will things develop or change for you?

Brands, brands, brands. We’re surrounded by them. Every day. Everywhere, a brand or many brands vie for our attention. As I write, literally within a twelve inch radius to me, sitting on a train, I have 7 prominent brand names clearly visible.
If I asked you to think of some, or notice what’s next to you right now, you’re probably visualising a symbol or design of a famous name. There is a habit of championing our favourites, and then there are those we choose to avoid (for all sorts of reasons).
I wonder, do you ever think of yourself as a brand? For the ordinary individual on the street, it’s perhaps not the first word we might use when describing ourselves and yet, essentially, that’s what we are.

Introvert or extrovert? Which camp would you put yourself in? Is it possible to pigeonhole the entire human race as simply being one or the other?
According to Carl Jung’s theory on personality types, none of us are completely extroverted or introverted, however we certainly connect to or feel most comfortable, in one of these worlds over the other.

How is your career panning out these days? Are you currently where you want to be? Are you living up to your own expectations? We have a tendency, understandably, to plan our careers in an upward trajectory, however if things don’t quite go to plan, naturally it can be disappointing.
When you think about it though, upwards isn’t always necessarily the only way to go - there is an alternative route.
How about sideways for a change?

Some organisations spend a lot of time and money creating company values. You only have to type in a few key words and you’ll find a plethora of blogs and articles on the subject. However, I believe people have values, not businesses. So how do we get people to buy into the ideals of a company or organisation?
