Listen this episode, subscribe to our podcast and stay tuned for more tips and real examples that will help you build your brand, your visibility and become a though leader.

Our main takeaways:

📍You need to be a collaborative leader, and you also need to take decisions and responsibility to move forward

📍Leave your Impostor Syndrome behind. Play and leverage the resources that you have! Offer value and contribute to the environment 

📍Many women think that you need to always be capable to do 100% of your work. But it´s better to stick to 80/20: Do the 80% and the 20% should be the stretch for you. Without this stretch you are not growing and you are not maturing. If you feel that you are capable to do even 80%, you are already probably ahead in the game. Have confidence to take the opportunity and go for it.

📍Use your LinkedIn network to grow your connections and visibility. Comment, like post of others. Those can be highlights of others´day, especially in our new reality. It's the way to say "Hi". And it does not take so much time.

📍Join and participate in networking groups and associations.

📍Build your brand focusing on your values. Develop your industry or solution expertise. Talk about the things that are career-oriented. Have clarity and help people understand real world things. When you help them, they also help you.

📍Use speaking engagements to develop your expertise.

📍Your awards and your visibility are not about what you say you do in the industry. It's about what industry says you do for others. 

📍Passion is so key. You can teach people how to do something. But you can not teach them that attitude and that passion that needs to come through.

📍Have fun in all that you do.
