Lucinda presents the first instalment of the High Performance HR series, focusing on maximising personal impact as HR professionals, emphasising the importance of self-awareness, encouraging listeners to identify their unique strengths, values, and areas for development.

Lucinda talks about five key areas: knowing oneself, setting personal career goals, overcoming imposter syndrome, defining how to add value to the organisation, and building relationships for long-term success

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Understanding your core values is essential for making aligned decisions in your career. Reflect on past experiences to identify what truly fulfils you and how your values influence your choices.

• Define what you want to achieve in your career and life. Consider your ambitions, the type of organisation that suits you, and how your personal and family plans may impact your career trajectory.

• Recognise feelings of self-doubt and understand that many people experience imposter syndrome. Track your achievements, seek support from trusted colleagues, and challenge negative thoughts to build confidence.

• Understand your organisation's vision, mission, and values. Align your HR strategies with these elements to add real value and position yourself as a thought leader within your organisation.

BEST MOMENTS

"Before we can make a meaningful impact as HR professionals in the businesses we work for, we need to understand ourselves first."

"Your values will, know it or not, they will be influencing decisions you make, career paths you follow, the things that you find fulfilling and the things that you find grating."

"Recognise if you are not taking on new challenges because you've got a fear of failure."

"If your organisation doesn't have a clear vision, mission and values, think about why not; could you help the organisation to develop them?"
