The Confident Mother

Helping ambitious women in technology fully unlock their leadership potential

24th August 2017

Boost your career by bigging yourself up CC034

Discover 5 simple things you can do to boost your career by ‘bigging yourself up’ without fear of coming across as cocky or arrogant.

Only the other day I heard myself downplaying what’s involved in writing a book. Downplaying my achievements. So many women do this all the time. And yet, bigging yourself up is a key part of your career strategy to boost your confidence and attract the right career opportunities.

In this episode, I share 5 simple things you can do today:

  • Quantify your achievements
  • Ask for recommendations
  • Talk it through
  • Record your achievements
  • Save the praise

Mentioned on the show and other useful links

  • The Confident Mother book
  • The 10 Day LinkedIn Challenge (we start again on 18 September!)
  • Book your complimentary career boost call with Sherry
