[Visibility Series - Part 4] In today's episode, I am talking about how to become the top pick for that role that you really want. I break down the formula for blowing out your competition and becoming the top pick for your next career opportunity.How are you currently operating in the work place? Many of us think that the amount of time we spend on something has a direct correlation to the outcome... but it doesn’t always work out that way.If you are a corporate professional, you might have the mindset that “I need to be seen to be showing up and I need to be seen to be committed. The way that I can demonstrate that is by the amount of time I spend in the office or show up online. I need them to know that I’m working hard.”But it isn’t always the case that the more time you spend, the more output there is. Have you ever been in a situation where you’ve been drafting an email or you’ve been working on a report, you’ve been working on something for a while and really you’ve been sitting at a blank screen for a long time? It's not about the time you spend - it's about the impact that you create. If you want all your hard work to translate into getting promoted or landing a more senior position elsewhere, you need to learn what it is that your organisation is trying to achieve and then how to articulate the value and impact you can bring to help the organisation achieve these goals. You need to understand what that problem is first so you can position yourself to be an answer to that problem. What you will learn:The importance of understanding your organisation’s goals - When what you're able to achieve and deliver is aligned with the results that an organisation is trying to achieve and where they are trying to get to, you are able to place yourself strategically to been seen and to become a solution to the organisation’s problem. Tailoring and targeting - When you are clear and you understand what the organisation's goals are, you are better placed to tailor and target your efforts in the right place. You're able to properly diagnose what results actually look like.Shifting your mindset - Creating opportunities for yourself in the right places, try different ways to achieve your goal and experiment with your ideas. Putting yourself out there increases your chance of opportunities.Other episodes you may enjoy:Episode 211: Better Boundaries At Work Will Set You FreeEpisode 215: How To Avoid Being Overlooked For Great OpportunitiesTHIS EPISODE IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY THE CAREER CHANGE MAKER PROGRAMIf you are looking for support with make a bold career move, apply for this program >>https://www.careerchangemakers.com/ccmprogramSupport the showSend us a text
