Britt Larsen, Career Coach & Creator of Livlyhood, a community for women who work, is a champion of women in the workplace. She hosts the Livlyhood podcast to celebrate working women and to help them find joy in their jobs. Her extensive career in public affairs prepared her to now guide working women to figure out how to get what they want and need from their careers. Britt’s Top 4 Takeaways Confidence. Look around you and see what you admire about what other people are posting, what do you like about what they are saying or how they are promoting themselves. Bottom line, you have to fight for yourself. Certainly cheer for others but don’t forget to promote your role and your accomplishments. On promotion, take your job description and rewrite it for the job you want or the job you are actually doing. What does my boss need? What do they value? What is really important to the company and my manager? How can I contribute to that goal? Then, how can you attach value? When do you make the case to your supervisor for promotion? Don’t wait until something bad happens like a colleague gets a promotion or you are assigned a really big project beyond the scope of your job. You never want to ask under the pretense of reaction. When you know it’s time: Present the facts. Gain confidence. How? Work to break out of your shell by sharing your story. It’s uncomfortable at first so you have to get the reps, and just start. It will get easier! Craft your story. What’s your story? “People enjoy working with me!” or “I am a phenomenal sales person” or “I am resourceful and always come in under budget”. Own your story with confidence and start sharing!
