We have the mind-set that self-promotion is self-serving, and therefore distasteful. Even if we attempt to talk about our accomplishments and take credit for our success, doing this with confidence and conviction is challenging. Why? How do we develop this skill then?
It is important to see that self-promotion is a leadership skill. It is your responsibility to talk about what you and your team have achieved, not only for your own benefit, but also for the team and the company. It’s how to create influence. It’s how you sell your ideas across the organization. It’s the basis of building relationships with key stakeholders and gaining access to the power networks.
Kevin Britz is joined by Meenakshhi Iyer the founder of NorthStar Solutions and they discuss self-promotion as a leadership skill. HUMILITY IS NOT THINKING LESS OF YOURSELF, IT’S THINKING OF YOURSEL LESS!
