🎯 It’s been exactly one week since I’ve had the honor to speak at the “HR, Founders & Friends” Meetup in Berlin and I still get goosebumps when I think about it! Together with Svetlana, Henrik and Sina I focussed on addressing these key questions: ➡️ Where should founders and leaders start when setting up a company that leads to sustainable well-being? ➡️ How does growth affect companies? What are the most common growing pains? To cut it short, our conversation boiled down to several key aspects: 1️⃣ Building trust and transparency, 2️⃣ being a role model when it comes to work-life-balance as well as culture and values, 3️⃣ and creating an environment of psychological safety! And finally, if you are a true leader, 4️⃣ the ability to “lose control” and trustingly hand-over responsibility to your team. 💯 I enjoyed both the panel discussion and the open and engaging conversations I had with some of the attendees! You asked the right questions! A million thanks to Sina for organizing as well as AVOMIND and Tech Jobs Fair for sponsoring that amazing event! It was a blast and I’m looking forward to attending whenever I’m in Berlin or - probably - expanding it in Munich, too (the question of the DJ remains open, though 😁). If you want to learn more, feel free to reach out to me! I’m more than happy to keep the discussion going… #leadership #meetup #cultureandvalues #trust #THEUNLEASHPEOPLE

A question close to my heart: "How do I find a company that truly values sustainability?" It’s a common query and one I’m passionate about. From my experience, aligning your career with a company's sustainability values isn't just possible—it's deeply fulfilling. What I have learnt: 1. Dive deep: Look beyond the job description. Explore their sustainability reports, social media, and eco-friendly initiatives. 2. Ask bold questions: During interviews, don’t hesitate to ask about their green policies and future sustainability plans. Their responses will tell you a lot. 3. Build your tribe: Join groups or attend events focused on sustainability in business. Networking with like-minded professionals can open doors to the right opportunities. 4. Spot the signs: Certifications like B Corp, Fair Trade, or ISO 14001 are great indicators of a company’s dedication to sustainability. 5. Show your passion: Let your commitment to sustainability shine through in your applications and interviews. Companies that share your values will notice. Embarking on a career journey that mirrors your values is profoundly rewarding.

Dare to be Different: How I Learned to Think Outside the Box 🤔 Throughout my career, one of the most valuable lessons I've learned is the power of bringing a unique perspective. What does that mean exactly? It's about constantly questioning the status quo and seeking better ways to achieve goals. Is simply repeating the same process the most effective approach? Or could we break the mould and achieve even greater results by trying something new? Of course, there's always a balance to strike, especially when starting a new role. You don't want to come across as disruptive right off the bat, even if your ideas have merit. But here's the thing: originality is a game-changer for organisations. That's why, during interviews, I always ask a key question: how receptive are you to fresh ideas and suggestions? Can you share a specific example of how a new idea was embraced and implemented? By prioritizing originality, you not only push yourself but also contribute to a culture of innovation that benefits everyone. #originality #daretobedifferent #thinkoutsidethebox

⭐Great tips from Jennifer Jones about addressing concerns you may have about diverse work histories, some nuggets of advice on how to present this well in today's job market⭐

I'll be honest. For the first chunk of my career, I believed my hard work was enough to propel me forward. I wrote about this extensively in my book, Visible Strengths. Spoiler alert: it wasn't. The world doesn't operate on the "if you build it, they will come" principle, especially not in the workplace. If you are in the middle of the ‘Invisible’ Struggle, it's time for a wake-up call. Being invisible is THE #1 career killer I have observed. How? Let's unpack this. 🤯It makes it more challenging to get your ideas heard: Your genius ideas won't matter if you are not visible. Visibility ensures that decision-makers (managers, customers, business partners, sponsors, etc.) know your valuable contributions. 😖It makes building your reputation and credibility difficult: Invisibility prevents you from showcasing your talents, hindering your chance to be recognised as a valuable team member. Consistent visibility helps build a strong reputation and affirms your credibility. 😩It limits opportunities for advancement and growth: Invisibility means being overlooked for promotions and growth opportunities. If you're not seen, you're not top of mind for decision-makers. It's out of sight, out of mind! 😭It hinders your success in building relationships and networks: Strong relationships are the currency of success at work. If people hear your name and say, "Who's that?" it will be challenging to build the connections that can support your career journey. It's 2024. There is no time to or point in being the best-kept secret. Steward your presence and voice to create the impact and influence you deserve. ----------- Hi, I'm Mary Mosope.
