Hi there! Welcome DIY for Business listeners to my website!
On my interview with Russ and Greg, I shared my insights on resilience, reinvention and leadership drawn from my experiences as an elite gymnast, startup founder, and executive coach.
Here are some key takeaways from our conversation:
- Startups and large companies are facing new challenges in the current economic climate, with many pivoting to focus more on core business and profits.
- When considering a career pivot, assess external factors, your skills and passions, and how you can connect them to growing trends.
- Don't feel you have to be first to market - learn quickly and build on what early movers have proven.
- Craft your career pivot story using narrative techniques like "last season recaps" to help others understand your motivations.
- Adopt new technologies like AI even if you're highly skilled, as it can give you an edge over peers and prevent you from being disrupted.
