Becoming The InfluentialMe episodes

  • Adriènne Kelbie CBE│From office temp to CEO; How she did it?

    Here's some of what we discussed (tip of the iceberg😉):

    - Why it's so important to make yourself dispensable (yes dispensable!!!)
    - How to make yourself visible and create opportunities for yourself
    - Why your ability to learn is so much more important than what you know
    - Why passion isn't enough and what you need to add to it, to make it transformational

    I am in awe of what Adrienne managed to achieve in her career and how she did it, honestly made my jaw drop at points.

    She is somebody who’s career journey has been speedy. She has accelerated her career in an industry many of us have been considering,  the hairy scary T-E-C-H.  

    As a hiring manager in the tech space, working in one of the fastest growing companies in the country, Claire shares exactly what you need to do to get noticed by tech companies.

    That’s not all though, here’s what I found out from her and what you can learn:

    – Why impressing your peers is more important than impressing your bosses
    – How to gain visibility and accelerate your career in spite of your age or anything else
    – Why taking time to look after herself made her a better contributor at work
    – How you can get in

    Claire is subtle in the way she delivers these gems and nuggets through out, so be shameless about rewinding things back and writing them down.
