If you’re a smart, hard-working, high performer looking to rise in your career without selling your soul then you already know that you need to work smarter, not harder.

There’s no need to tell you again that the people that get the big jobs aren’t necessarily the hardest working or the smartest people in the company.

You have been doing the right things.

You've worked hard and delivered at work in so many ways. You just haven’t had the ongoing coaching, inspiring, real-life stories, tangible practice steps, and ultimately the community support you need to make SYSTEMIC change.

You need more. And less. I learned along the way that the best way to make long-lasting change was to be a part of an inspiration PLATFORM; a multi-faceted support system that inspires people to not just make change, but ensures they continue to practice change every single day.

The problems with so many career and leadership solutions out there are:

1. They are often long, cumbersome and overwhelming.
2. They can be quite boring and uninspiring.
3. They may be taught by PhDs and Human Resource professionals; people who have never really walked in the shoes that you want to walk in.
4. They are highly theoretical and don’t focus on the real-life sh*t that actually happens.
5. Sometimes they can be absent of anything that makes you feel like you’re 100% committed to taking all the way to the finish line.

WHAT TO EXPECT INSIDE 

Module 1

Getting Started

In this first module, I will set the stage for the work to come – what you can expect, and what not to expect.

You will also be coached to set your intentions. This is the simplest and most important step you’ll take. I believe strongly in the concept of manifestation – that is, when you clearly define your intentions, goals and outcomes – it is nearly impossible not to achieve them.

Module Highlights:

After watching the video lessons, you will answer some simple but powerful questions that will set the current and end state vision as to what you want to get from the workshop.

Module 4

Standing Out

This is the fun stuff! If you’re not standing out, you’re blending in. And that’s not fun.

We tackle the 3 most powerful building blocks for leadership and how critical it is to practice these well before you’re a manager (and it’s also never too late).

Module Highlights:

I will also do some straight talk about how critical it is to communicate with senior leaders in the right way. You can be the best employee ever, but if you can’t nail this, I’m sorry to say your career growth is limited. It’s sad but true.

We also dive deep into another one of my secret weapons to success – storytelling. I debunk the myths (hint: it’s not just for the big stage or extroverts), the science and power behind storytelling, and finally, I give you my five proven categories for storytelling. Then I put you to work, building your own story library.

Module 5

Focusing On You

All the things we learned up to this point are all for nothing, if you don’t have the guts and discipline to focus on yourself.

Module Highlights:

We have a LOT of fun in one of these lessons (you won’t believe the sh*t I think of doing sometimes to make a point). And it will leave you with permission to stop only doing things for others…especially you “mom types”.

We also talk about setting boundaries for yourself. Guess what? You are the only person that will do this. I give you very small, practical tips to implement and build upon. This might even be the most important lesson there is.

 Lastly, we’ll talk about Mentors and Sponsors. You’ve likely heard of mentors, but I will talk about them using powerful, different terminology that will open up your eyes to a whole new world of people that can help you rise. I will also be sure you understand what a Sponsor is…and what an all-too-important-but-rarely-discussed Anti-Sponsor is. And of course, we’ll work on how you can be sure to maximize all of these people as you work on your career journey.

Module 6

Going For It

You didn’t think I’d leave you hanging, did you? In this module I walk you through a 3-step process to prepare and ask for the promotion you deserve.

Module Highlights: 

Or not quite sure your next step is in the company you’re in?  I also lead a lesson about the most strategic way to look for your next job. And most importantly, what NOT to focus on in that process as well (eh-hem – other people’s opinions).

Module 7

Crossing the Finish Line

In this final module, I bring full-on Coach Erin to the lessons to ensure you’re inspired and accountable to take what you’ve learned and keep it going. I give you my own, weird-a$$ version of “Win one for the Gipper” speech and also talk about other ways we can continue to kick each other in the pants towards more and more success!
