🚀 My Big Move & The Power of Visibility

I have to share something with you all—after 7 incredible years, I’m making a big move—I’m leaving Korn Ferry.

They say the seven-year itch is real, and while it’s usually about relationships, careers aren’t that different. Walking away from something I’ve built, at the top of my game, wasn’t easy. But if there’s one thing I’ve learned over the years, it’s this:

💡 The biggest career moves happen when you bet on yourself.

And that’s exactly what I’m doing.

Over the last few years, I’ve invested heavily in my visibility—on LinkedIn, TikTok, my newsletter, and beyond. That exposure didn’t just build a following—it built opportunities. It gave me the confidence to write a book 📖, launch a podcast 🎙️ (details coming soon!), and step into new ventures that align with my vision.

So if you’re thinking about betting on yourself, here’s my best advice: 🌟 GET VISIBLE.

Your LinkedIn is your digital business card, and when you use it strategically, you attract inbound requests, speaking gigs, job offers, and career-changing connections.

💼 Full-Proof LinkedIn Strategies to Unlock New Opportunities (ChatGPT Prompts for LinkedIn below…)

🔹 Optimize Your Profile Like a Pro 
 Headline – Go beyond your job title. Make it clear who you help and how you add value.
 About Section – This is your personal pitch. Use storytelling to show your expertise and impact. (Trust me…it will help with their search algorithm)
 Featured Section – Highlight major wins (press mentions, thought leadership, top posts, etc.).
 Profile & Banner – A professional, high-quality image builds trust instantly.

🔹 Post With Purpose 📝
You don’t need to post every day, but quality matters more than quantity.
Share industry insights, career tips, or leadership lessons.
 Storytelling works – People connect with real experiences, not just corporate speak.
Mix text posts, carousels, and short videos to maximize engagement.

🔹 Engage & Be Seen 👀
Your network is your net worth. Get on people’s radar by:
Commenting thoughtfully on high-visibility posts.
Reaching out with genuine DMs—not just “Hi, let’s connect.”
Sharing and tagging others (without spamming).

🔹 Be Consistent ⏳
Building visibility is a long game. The people who win are the ones who show up week after week. Consistency builds credibility.

I bet on myself because I saw firsthand what visibility can do—and now, I want you to do the same.

And for those wondering—yes, I’m still in executive search 🔎. Helping companies find top talent and guiding executives to land their next big role is what I love. That’s not changing. But this next chapter? It’s about expanding, building, and creating something even bigger.

Stay tuned—BIG things ahead. 🚀🔥

📚What I Read This Week…

Didn’t Get That Promotion? How to Turn ‘No’ Into Opportunity

Getting passed over for a promotion stings—especially in a tough job market. But before you start scrolling job boards, this article breaks down why staying put with a strategy might actually be the best move.

The key takeaway? Leverage your near-miss. Even if you didn’t get the job, your company sees potential in you—so use that as negotiation power. Smart professionals are securing mentors, retention bonuses, high-impact projects, and even executive coaching to boost their visibility for the next opportunity.

💡 Pro tip: The best time to ask for what you want is immediately after hearing "no"—most people hate rejecting someone twice in a row.

If you’ve ever faced a career setback, this read is for you. Check out the full article here: Didn’t Get That Promotion? How to Turn ‘No’ Into Opportunity
