In our crazy, volatile world, it's easy to fall into reactive career management mode. This was true for me for much of my career. I wasn't intentional about my choices and tended to follow the path laid out for me by others. While I'm incredibly grateful for my work experience, were I to do it again, I would be much more purposeful and intentional about my decisions. How can you be more intentional about your leadership journey? #leadership #careersuccess #careergoals #clarity #confidence #ImpostorSyndrome #success #growth

Is your executive position a career or just a job? While there's nothing wrong with having a job, I firmly believe that when you reach the level of executive leadership, you're not only there to work — you’re there to make an impact, to drive change and to lead a team towards common goals. Think about it: Are you in your leadership role because it’s truly what you want and enjoy? Or are you caught in the dreaded cycle of simply meeting targets and ticking boxes? The difference between the two can be night and day – not just for you, but for the entire organization. So, let's think beyond job descriptions and climb towards career fulfillment. Remember: You're not in this just for the title. Make every role count. #LeadershipGoals #CSuite #CareerFulfillment

In over 25 years of leadership hiring, I have learned that every Organization needs to answer one question in particular when it comes to hiring a "passive candidate" in a leadership role (or most roles for that matter). "What is it that you can offer, which the candidate cannot get where they are or at any organization, other than yours?" #leadershiphiring #executivesearch
