On this episode of Elite Achievement, Kristin introduces us to Nicole Case who is a career and leadership coach for women leaders in the corporate world who are looking for a career upgrade. Nicole gives us a lot of amazing advice especially for those women who need help in deciding whether they want to transition in their career. Nicole talks about different topics from boundaries to feeling stagnant in your career, and much more. 

Episode Highlights

02:13 I saw what the conversation was and what corporate executives valued in a leader. I noticed that it was kind of disconnected to what a lot of women thought they needed to get ahead. 

03:46 I noticed that the systems and routines that I had put in place in my corporate job did not necessarily translate to being a solopreneur or business owner. 

08:10 We don’t always give ourselves that grace, as the work that we’re doing as coaches requires a lot of thinking. We’re pouring ourselves into our clients. 

10:30 Make sure you communicate clearly about what your expectations are and what your boundaries are. 

17:03 I think we are all influenced by our upbringing and the values that our parents brought to us. As adults, we have to reflect on whether those are still the values we want to continue to take forward with us. 

19:46 Hitting a plateau is super normal in everyone’s career. 

24:04 Getting feedback is so critical in this stage because we are so deep into our own careers and into our own performance, that sometimes having a third party to give you a different perspective is really helpful. 

30:39 The first thing for you to do as a leader is to ask your team and not make assumptions of what they need. 

36:22 If you want to show up as more authentic in your corporate role, the first thing you need to know is yourself.
