Thank you to more than 100 of you who have responded to the 2023 Career Industry Trends survey! Today is your last day to complete the survey if you want to help shape the trends AND get a coupon to join us for Career Jam the week of November 7th.
Speaking of trends...change is happening at a rapid pace today! How do we help our clients (and ourselves) keep up with what is important?
How do we anticipate change so we don't miss out on opportunities or feel blindsided if we lose a job?
First, get clear on what you really need to follow. What do you want to be known for? What trends, industries, geographies matter most?
|
|
|
You can't stay up on it all...so be selective.
Second, use what already exists. You don't have to create the wheel. Find the professional associations and news sources that offer credible, focused information so you aren't overwhelmed, inundated with negativity, or spending time going to seek out information.
Lastly, find people you can talk with about the trends. This will help you reality-check what you're reading, watching, and hearing while building your network! Zoom or real-life conversations are best and engaging in comments within professional communities or social media is beneficial as well.
Watch your emotional reactions to trends. When we discount something too quickly it can be from fear, not a reality that it isn't a trend! Will AI replace coaches? I don't know, but it I say, "that isn't possible," it is likely a fear response and not helpful when it comes to staying on top of the trend and being agile to stay relevant in the future of work.
What helps you and your clients stay on top of trends? Drop me a note...I'd love to hear your tips!

CEO, Career Thought Leaders
P.S. If you're in the careers industry, you're in the right spot for trends and we look forward to having trend conversations with you every Tuesday on our live stream and in our annual Career Jam and Tech Jam events! |

OCT 6 | Certified Digital Branding Strategist Program |
|
|
Building
a digital brand is no longer a "nice-to-have," it is a necessary step
to building a sustainable business, advancing a career, and quickly
transitioning in the global world of work.
Digital
branding for job search has also become more complex, with 66% of recruiters
looking at Facebook, 46% sourcing or screening through Instagram, and
technologies that scan all online activity to score candidates on personality
traits.
|
|
|
In the Digital Branding Strategist training program, you get new tools to help clients craft an integrated social media strategy built around the differentiation, power, and value of a personal brand.
You'll walk away with processes and coaching tools to:
- Overcome the mental anguish that makes clients insecure about increasing their online visibility
- Stop stressing about becoming an "influencer" and start attracting the right followers to achieve your goals
- Stand out from the crowd and build a digital brand that's unique, memorable, and authentic
- See tangible results, like increased qualified leads for business, jobs, speaking engagements, and more
- Stop worrying about what to post and when and develop a consistent process that leads to engagement and visibility
You get done-for-you tools to implement with clients (and yourself!) right away:
- Coaching plans to guide clients in using any of the top social media channels (LinkedIn, YouTube, Twitter, Facebook, Instagram)
- Resources for working with entrepreneurs, business owners, leaders, job seekers, and more
Plus, one-on-one support, an interactive program, and a community of career and branding professionals who share the latest on social platforms to keep you one step ahead of clients! |
