Comeback Coach
114. JESSICA - How knowing your values and being interested in the values of others helps you lead better and enjoy sustainable career success.
Hello Bright Mind, I start this episode by sharing a piece of academic astonishing research that demonstrates, unequivocally, the powerful and positive link between values and career success. Values frequently come into the work I do with leaders who are having a challenging time at work or in combining work and home. I do a lot of work with professional women with children who place importance on achieving at work and value being present and emotionally available for their children which can sometimes be very, very hard.
I hope you enjoy my musings on the psychology of values and strengths and how they relate to career and wider life success.
Best wishes,
Jessica
