Do you ever feel like how you performed or acted in your past roles in your career are what people STILL think of you? 🧐 Are potential funders, or job prospects calling old bosses from a decade ago to get the skinny on you, but you feel like they'll get a super outdated report on your performance? Then listen up! 📢 We live in a digital world, and the digital landscape is how we measure, and build, trust in today's competitive career marketplace. In fact 82% of people say they trust senior leaders at a company if their presence is visible on digital channels. But what happens if you're absent? Then people will take that opportunity to bring their own perception to the table, their own experience, their own set of stereotypes and fill in the gaps on your behalf. That means THEY own YOUR narrative. Ack! Bad news. Use these 4 steps to make sure your old boss, your old role, your old perceptions don't continue to haunt you today. 👉 Decide what your current identities are, and how to support those. 👉 Take inventory of what you've learned. 👉 Share something specific and unique to your experience. 👉 Join the conversation.
