Power Up Your Career with Personal Branding and Headshots
Ladies, it's time to take charge of your professional image and show the world the confident, influential women we are! As women over 40, we have a wealth of knowledge, experience, and expertise to offer. With the right mindset, we can feel confident about the future and claim our space as leaders in our industry.
To stay relevant and current to my clients’ needs, understand their pain points and offer customised and effective solutions to help elevate their brand and get that next job, I attended a training session with Sarah Makris yesterday on How to Build a Powerful Personal Brand and Get Your Career in the Fast Lane. Sarah has had years of experience working with senior executives and business leaders to fast-track their careers and ensure they are never overlooked. Her course content was concise and helpful and she’s such a lovely, nurturing person; she’d be an amazing friend and wing woman to take you to that next level!Makris outlines five critical ingredients essential for career success:
Enhance Your Visibility: Being the hardest worker isn't enough; you must ensure that your efforts are seen and recognized. Visibility is key to career advancement.
Establish Credibility: Build trust and demonstrate your expertise consistently. Credibility positions you as a reliable and authoritative figure in your industry.
Position Yourself as an Industry Leader: Actively shape how others perceive you by showcasing your leadership qualities and unique value proposition.
Differentiate Yourself: Stand out from other professionals by highlighting what makes you unique, whether it's your approach, experience, or perspective.
Leverage Your Personal Brand for Future Opportunities: A strong personal brand not only aids in your current role but also opens doors for future career prospects, ensuring long-term success.
She emphasises that personal branding is a proactive process, enabling you to control your professional narrative and accelerate your career trajectory. Check out Makris’ podcasts if you're time poor - hello work commute!
My key takeaway from the session was:
“In this digital age, building a powerful and credible personal brand is key to attracting dream opportunities and building a runway of future success. Think about it, if you’re not making the connections online and in real life, someone else out there is and it can mean the difference between you getting that dream job or not.”
Investing in a professional corporate headshot is one way (and often the first way) to visually showcase our dedication to our career and confidence in our abilities.
I love receiving these messages from our personal branding session clients:
“I got the job!!”
