If you’ve been obsessed with a television show, movie, or book, it’s most likely because it’s telling a great story.

So, why wouldn’t you strive to achieve the same kind of interest and engagement when you are interviewing for a new job?

Being a powerful storyteller is more important than ever. Whether you are a shy introvert or a magnanimous extrovert, everyone can benefit from being a better storyteller or presenter, and my guest today is going to help you do that.

I’m joined by the President of Communispond, Scott D’Amico. In this episode, Scott shares one of his top public speaking strategies, “Deliver one thought to one set of eyes,” and how that can help you during your next Zoom or panel interview. Plus, Scott and I talk about how to help you calm your nerves, stop losing your train of thought, and why being clear and concise in your storytelling and communication is your best move during your next job interview or presentation.

Today, you are going to hear my conversation on The Authority Podcast, where I was interviewed by host Ross Romano. You may remember Ross because he was a guest of mine on Episode 220.

Navigating the complex terrain of mid-career development requires a balance of self-awareness and tactical communication—a theme we explore in depth. I delve into the power of career transformation and advocate for clear expectations and feedback that pave the way for powerful collaborations. Ross Romano and I dissect the nuances of expanding your professional network through LinkedIn connections, and emphasizing the endless opportunities for growth no matter where you stand in your career journey.

We discuss Brene Brown’s quote, “Sometimes the bravest and most important thing you can do is just SHOW UP,” and why it means so much to us. We also discuss how you can SHOW UP at work more confidently and without fear, how to build your brand and leadership presence, and how to own where you are and create those new opportunities as you build Your Mid-Career GPS.
