Pitstop’s Post

My career spans two decades across industries including tech, telecom, retail, and F&B, working with dozens of roles. And let me tell you—there’s NO ONE better to work with than a Chief of Staff o Executive Assistant. Chiefs of Staff and EAs: - are great communicators - are proactive and solution-oriented - do what they say they're going to do - don't need handholding or follow up - and above all else, are kind and collaborative. I mean, I've always known that Chiefs of Staff & EAs were great. But I work with them now more than ever before… and they're simply THE BEST. 👏 In the comments: do you agree? Share your experience below. I’ll add a few thoughts too👇 #chiefofstaff #executiveassistant #CEO #generalist

Snr Chief Lead Manager of Operations? What’s in a title and what do they truly signify? It’s no secret that title inflation has crept up in recent years, and the allure can easily overshadow the substance carried. However, I strongly believe the weight in which they hold can be minimal and out of balance for many seeking a new opportunity. Brand integrity needs to be paramount on hiring managers minds when considering adding a Snr or Lead to the front of a title. And for candidates seeking that new role, ask yourself what comes with that title? - Increased expectations and weight on your shoulders - Team management - Salary - Client engagement - Nothing…. What’s your take?

Teaching my client how to land a director role at Nvdia is fun! But it works anywhere! He’s how to go shopping for director roles… First, you need to know what kind of director you want to be. In which domain? Next, you need to figure out who the hiring manager for that role would be.  ↳ If you want to be a director, you’re looking at VPs and senior executive directors. At this point, most people would reach out to these hiring managers… But you actually want to make them the last you’ll reach out to. Why? These are very important and busy people. If some random person reaches out to them, they won’t be likely to respond.  ↳ So you want to reach out to people that are a little lower on the or chart.  ↳ Senior managers and lower-level directors. You’ll find a lot of value in talking to your peers. In addition, most of these peers are most likely connected to VPs. So when the day comes for you to reach out to VPs, they’ll see that you have mutual connections at their company. ✔️ They’ll be far more likely to connect. ✔️ And chat. And to be able to talk to your future manager is huge leap toward your director role! #jobsearch #networking #buildingrelationships #careercoach #careercoaching
