Creating the necessary social compact…

The people team at Gusto delivered an incredible panel at the #ALPFA convention. Here's some of the key learnings I got from the panel: - Think two jobs ahead. Thinking one job ahead may take you to wrong decisions with short term gains instead of long-term goals. (Emil Yeargin) - Know where you want to be, be flexible on how you get there. (Nerissa I.) - Figure out what you don't want in your career, make decisions based on those non-negotiables. It's sometimes easier that knowing exactly what you want. (Monique Jackson, MBA) - Be careful not to tie your personal value to the company you work in. Jobs change, companies shift priorities or shut down. You can't let that define you. (Santhiago DeVicente) - It's fine not to know the exact thing you want but have a north star. (Dakotah Vayle Eddy, MBA) #development #leadership #careeradvice #alpfamiliar #alpfacon24 #ALPFAconvention24 #ALPFA

Four years ago I tripped into yet another opportunity, building One Day Agency. As with every other I came across, I said yes. Why? The learning opportunity was just immense to not take it as with all the previous ones. And that's how I got here today after a few countries and roles as a leader of an advertising agency: I focus on learning a ton and I care a ton. Over 30% of my weekly time is purely reading and absorbing content. And applying it, testing it, daily. In addition to some "hacks": - Change jobs regularly: you'll maximise the number of people you meet, the knowledge of each environment you can get access to, your financial potential, and so on unlocking more opportunities and knowledge. - Plan ahead: pick jobs that enable you the skills you will need in 2 years. Want to be the head of the department? Go into a job that will teach you all the knowledge needed to run that department. If that department has multiple silos, you guessed it, you'll need to learn all the silos meaning at times different jobs/roles. - Acquire self-awareness: talk to people openly about your shortfalls and seek advice, self-awareness is the most powerful tool for your personal development and career. - Open criticism: how are you going to do something better if you or your environment doesn't allow sharing ideas and criticism? You won't, you'll be average. - Don't fall into money traps: some life decisions such as buying a house or high-paying sales jobs are nothing but traps. I know, polarising. Great for the short term, really bad for the long term. - Invest in absorbing content, in learning, constantly, every day. You'd be surprised what 15 minutes a day does for you from unlocking new conversations or winning the pitch. Subscribe to relevant people on your phone. What are your hacks and advice to anyone looking to move the needle on their career?

Trusting an external consultant to come in with fresh eyes, and assess your business can be quite a daunting prospect. Your business is personal to you, you’ve put your heart and soul into it, but sometimes that’s your biggest obstacle. You are TOO close to it all to see what’s required to change and help you navigate the journey from A to B. That’s where I come in. Don’t believe me? Check out the lovely review/ testimonial I have just received from Michelle 🏡 Niziol - super successful business owner, after having worked with Michelle and her team over the course of about 6 weeks. Was it easy? No. Did she have to make some tough decisions? Yes. Was she alone? No. Did she have the answers already. Most definitely. But we worked together and devised the plan that gave her the confidence to move forward. Thanks for working with me Michelle and trusting me with your business. #culturecomesfirst #culturefirstapproach #optimiseyourbusiness #learninganddevelopment
