THE PROOF IS IN THE STATISTICS!
You already know that your reputation matters.
You know that the best jobs come through people you know, who took the time to sing your praises before you walked through the door.
What if the next great job for you is waiting right in your own company?
In 2006, 77% of companies surveyed said they don’t have enough successors for their current senior leaders.
Smart business leaders are on the lookout for their replacements.
What is the buzz associated with your name?
Being good isn’t good enough.
You must be able to reach out and connect with the other people in the company just as competently as you handle the technical aspects of your profession.
According to a survey of HR Managers in 100 mid- and large-size organizations:
35% of new managers and executives failed in their jobs within the first 18 months of starting new positions
Why?
- They were unable to build strong relationships and team work with subordinates and peers.
- They lacked the required internal political savvy
- They were unable to form a solid partnership with bosses
The leaders in your company – and in your industry – place a high value on the ability to connect, to motivate and to build consensus.
How are you perceived by those who could positively impact your career?
A Personal Branding strategy will showcase your strengths and let those with influence sing your praises.
