The challenge
Coming into shine I wanted to be clearer on what my next steps were in terms of my career.
I needed to be clear in my mind that the role I was progressing into was actually a role that I really wanted.I needed to explore what the role would look like, what it required me to doand how it required me to prepare. The step up I was looking at in the future was in my mind considerable and required me to think, behave and be different.
The solution
Shine helped me to clarify my thinking around my future career.
I could see that progression was going to be available in the near future, I wanted to make sure that next step was right for me. I had a number of questions including was the time right? Am I experienced enough? Am I right for that role? I looked around at people I know that were in similar roles and was trying to understand if I could be like them. Shine helped me turn it on its head, think about what I need to get from my next role, what I have to offer, what influences I wanted to have in my career and then work out what that role would look like. Instead of being bound by the role I had time to think about me, what I enjoy, what I am good at and how that can help the business I work in.
The result
I have since been promoted into the role of Managing Director.
Shine helped me to work out that long term I wanted to be the MD of the company I work for. Shine has also enabled me to move into this role with a clear view on the type of MD I would like to be.Being authentic is key, I needed to know that I could take on this role and not only deliver for the business but deliver for myself on both a personal and professional level.
I could see that progression was going to be available in the near future, I wanted to make sure that next step was right for me.
