Anna Papalia, TikTok’s “Interview Expert” (1.5M social media followers). In her upcoming book, INTERVIEWOLOGY: The New Science of Interviewing (Harper Business; January 30, 2024), Papalia reveals a new language, backed in science and grounded in four unique interview styles, which helps both hiring managers and job seekers to name and understand their unique interviewing tendencies.     Because 90% of hiring managers aren't trained on how to interview, they fall prey to their implicit bias when judging candidates and making hiring decisions. Job seekers, equally as mystified by the process, follow stale advice, memorizing rote answers that aren't true to who they are. Having consulted with Fortune 100 companies and taught over 10,000 clients how to improve their unique interview skills, Papalia is determined to improve the process for both hiring managers and job seekers alike.     In a podcast interview, Papalia can discuss the four different interview styles, what their priorities are in an interview, and what they say about the person:    Charmers who think, “I want to be liked”   Challengers who think, “I want to be me”   Examiners who think, “I want to get it right”   Harmonizers who think, “I want to adapt”      Sample TikToks:   3 Things NOT to Do When Negotiating a Job Offer   When You’re Asked in a Job Interview, Why Do You Want to Work Here   When You Receive a Job Offer, Don’t Accept it on the Spot!     Social media:  https://www.tiktok.com/@anna..papalia?is_from_webapp=1&sender;_device=pc  https://www.instagram.com/annapapalia/  https://www.facebook.com/careercoachannapapalia

Website: www.haileymagee.com   Hailey Magee is a certified life coach who helps people around the world stop people pleasing and find their power. Her refreshingly nuanced perspectives on boundary-setting and self-advocacy have captured the attention of millions on social media, and her public talks and virtual workshops have welcomed tens of thousands of participants. Certified by Erickson Coaching International, Hailey is dedicated to offering clear, research-supported strategies for change, helping recovering people pleasers rediscover not only their power and agency, but their pleasure, joy, and sense of wonder. She lives in Seattle, Washington.   Book:   Stop People Pleasing and Find Your Power  A viral life coach offers a practical, empathetic, and inspiring guide to breaking people-pleasing patterns that can harm our careers, relationships, physical, and psychic health.  For most of Hailey Magee’s life, people-pleasing came so naturally to her that she didn’t even have a word for it. When somebody wanted something from her—even a stranger—she gave it, no matter how uncomfortable, exhausted, or resentful she felt inside. People-pleasing, she learned, was a coping mechanism that had kept her physically and emotionally safe in the past, but wreaked havoc on her life in the present—and she was committed to breaking the pattern once and for all.  The solution that social media and self-help shelves gave her was to “Advocate for yourself! Speak up! Set boundaries!” But after years of ignoring her feelings and needs, Magee needed more than boundaries; she needed to reconnect with the “self” who was supposed to be doing the advocating. You can’t express yourself if you’re cut off from your feelings. You can’t fight for your needs if you don’t know what they are. And you can’t set boundaries with others until you believe you’re worthy of more than the bare minimum. Radically reconnecting with herself gave Magee the confidence and self-respect she needed to stand up for herself in her relationships. As she experienced a freedom she never thought possible, she became a certified life coach with the mission of helping others do the same.  Stop People Pleasing explains how anyone can break the pattern by learning their own feelings, needs, values, and desires; ending cycles of enmeshment and codependency; overcoming guilt; developing physical and sexual agency; and more. It is a refreshingly nuanced guide, exploring fundamental questions like:  ·      How can I tell when my genuine kindness veers into people-pleasing?  ·      How can I set boundaries while maintaining my empathy and generosity?  ·      When is it appropriate to compromise on my needs, and when is it not?  Combining social science, psychology, and hands-on coaching exercises, Stop People Pleasing teaches you how to connect with your own feelings, needs, and dreams; courageously advocate for yourself in your relationships with friends, family, and colleagues; soothe yourself through the growing pains of healing; and dive headfirst into pleasure and play. With fresh insight, heartfelt empathy, and a keen personal understanding of the pitfalls of people-pleasing, Magee helps you say what you need and get what you deserve.  People-pleasing is a coping mechanism that kept us physically or emotionally safe in the past⁠, but wreaks havoc on our lives in the present. Hailey Magee will teach you how to break the people-pleasing pattern and master the art of self-advocacy.   STOP People Pleasing and Find Your Power shows you how to break the pattern by learning your own feelings, needs, values, and desires; setting empowered boundaries with friends, family, and partners; ending cycles of enmeshment and codependency; overcoming guilt; developing physical and sexual agency; and more.   STOP People Pleasing is a practical, inspiring, and  nuanced guide for recovering people-pleasers who are ready to find their voice, speak their truth, and build the vibrant life that they deserve.

You need a bigger amusement park and a more challenging ride! A must-read for all women trying to find or fight their way to what is possible.

The Big Idea: Legions of workers consider their work monotonous or meaningless, and are just punching the clock. It’s no wonder that organizations are having a hard time attracting and retaining Gen Z workers. The most recent State of the Global Workforce Report found that less than one-quarter of the U.S. workforce is engaged at work. Lack of motivation leads to a loss of productivity and is reported to cost the economy over $8.1 trillion globally. Traditional methods to engage workers clearly aren’t working. But a NEW approach that looks at workplace engagement from an energetic perspective will not only enhance current employees at work, but will attract future talent and decrease turnover. The So-What: Within the spectrum of workers’ positive to negative energy levels, the effects are directly associated with constructive and destructive attitudes. Destructive energy derives from stress or having a victim mentality. Constructive energy fuels growth, motivation, and fulfillment. The energy and vigor workers bring to their job directly correlates with their engagement and performance in their role. Whatever the situation, one’s connection with work is similar to one’s personal relationships — both require energy to keep the relationship exciting and stimulating. Everyone has the ability to employ specific energetic principles that will enable them to take back their power and remake their work into something that inspires and motivates them. Key Messages: Rebecca Ahmed draws from an extensive career in People Services (HR) to reveal the practical steps that improve energy and transform workplaces. She addresses:  ·      How to create energetic shifts that increase your own energy, as well as the energy of those around you  ·      How to leverage five energetic success principles to propel you into higher levels of energy  ·      How to shift your employees' focus from dwelling on challenges to innovating and communicating solutions  ·      How to help your company attract and retain the talent that will catapult you into the future  ·      Where to complete an assessment of your own, your team’s, or your organization’s energy level The Source: Rebecca Ahmed is an award-winning speaker, a business consultant, and an Energy Leadership IndexTM Master Practitioner (ELI-MP).

Previously she has served as the Edward A. Smith/Missouri Chair of Law, the Constitution and Society at the University of Missouri at Kansas City; and as the Associate Dean for Professional Development and Presidential Professor of Ethics and the Common Good at Santa Clara University School of Law. She has written From Partners to Parents and co-written Red Families v. Blue Families; Marriage Markets; and Family Law. She is a co-editor of the International Survey of Family Law. Nancy Levit is the Associate Dean for Faculty and holds a Curator’s Professorship at the University of Missouri–Kansas City School of Law. Professor Levit has been voted Outstanding Professor of the Year five times by students and was profiled in Dean Michael Hunter Schwartz’s book, What the Best Law Teachers Do. She has received the N.T. Veatch Award for Distinguished Research and Creative Activity and the Missouri Governor’s Award for Teaching Excellence. She is the author of The Gender Line and co-author of Feminist Legal Theory; The Happy Lawyer; The Good Lawyer; and Jurisprudence—Classical and Contemporary.    Book:   Fair Shake:  Women & The Fight to Build a Just Economy  Simon & Schuster, May 7, 2024  A stirring, comprehensive look at the state of women in the workforce—why women’s progress has stalled, how our economy fosters unproductive competition, and how we can fix the system that holds women back.   You hold in your hands a book that, finally, proposes how to fix the system, rather than how to fix the woman.  No more “leaning in,” no more “girl bossing.” FAIR SHAKE explains plain and simple how the American economy is rigged to hold women back.  Legal scholars Naomi Cahn, June Carbone, and Nancy Levit  have identified the winner-take-all economy as at the root of these problems. The WTA economy self-selects for aggressive, cutthroat business tactics, which creates a feedback loop that sidelines women. Cahn, Carbone, and Levit call this feedback loop “the triple bind,” and it works like this:   If women don’t compete on the same terms as men, they lose. If women do compete on the same terms as men, they’re punished more harshly for their sharp elbows and misdeeds. When women see the rules of the new game, they don’t want to play on those terms.      With odds like these stacked against them, it’s no wonder women feel like, no matter how hard they work, they can’t get ahead. In an era of supposed greater equality, women are still falling behind in the workplace: even with more women in the workforce than in decades past, wage gaps continue to increase and recourse for discrimination and harassment become more difficult to obtain. But FAIR SHAKE suggests there is a countermovement and a way out of this. If women figure out what the nature of this new game is, they realize that the only way to fight back is to challenge the system itself.

Kim Dabbs, Founder:  To Belonging   Book: You Belong Here: The Power of Being Seen, Heard, and Valued on Your Own Terms. Kim Dabbs is a global leader in Belonging and Purpose, whose unique life story informs her passionate advocacy for inclusion and understanding. Born in Korea and adopted by American parents, Kim's journey has taken her from feeling perpetually out of place in different cultures to becoming an influential voice in creating spaces where everyone feels they belong.  As the Global Vice President of ESG and Social Innovation at Steelcase, she applies her extensive experience in social innovation, honed through roles like the Executive Director of the West Michigan Center for Arts and Technology and a residency at Stanford's d.school, to foster more inclusive and equitable environments.  As a sought-after speaker, Kim has delivered keynotes to organizations and institutions such as Google, Microsoft, MIT, The Drucker Forum, and The Guggenheim. Her debut book You Belong Here: The Power of Being Seen, Heard and Valued on Your Own Terms, reflects her transformation from a cultural chameleon trying to fit in to a thought leader who champions the idea of belonging to oneself. Everyone feels like an outsider at some point in their life—when we walk into a room and think to ourselves, “I don’t belong here.” To avoid these feelings of exclusion, many of us hide our authentic selves and allow others to define our identity. You Belong Here offers a new framework that allows each of us to define how we want to be seen, heard, and valued on our own terms so we feel a sense of belonging in any situation. Further, it serves as a launchpad for organizational leaders and culture builders to create safe spaces for individuals to show up as their authentic selves. Readers will explore our four identities:   Our Lived Identity is made up of the aspects of our identity we inherit when we are born into the world.  Our Learned Identity includes the parts of our identity that we’ve chosen or claimed as we make our way through the world.  Our Lingering Identity is the identity we default to when we feel like an outsider and fall back into as a survival mechanism.  Our Loved Identity is where we find our authentic selves and see ourselves through a lens of empowerment.  In the journey to understand our past experiences and how society has established barriers to entry, we can design our own future, rooted in our Loved Identity. We learn to rewrite the stories that aren’t serving us and embrace the ones that do. Rather than look for a seat at someone else’s table, we find the tools to build our own. When we fully leverage this and live with authenticity and purpose, we can be seen, heard, and valued in a way that gives us a sense of belonging at home, at work, and in society. Belonging is realized when we understand everyone is an outsider and it’s the power to create space for those differences that unite us all.   Social media:  ·      https://www.facebook.com/104175065145280  ·      https://www.instagram.com/tobelonging  ·      https://www.linkedin.com/company/tobelonging/  ·      https://www.youtube.com/@tobelonging
