Have you ever been told you need to "speak up more" or "be more visible" to advance your career?Â
You're not alone.
I recently interviewed Daniela Sarmiento, a former executive recruiter turned personal branding expert, and she shared something fascinating:Â
Many of the most qualified candidates she saw were being overlooked - not because of their skills, but because they couldn't "package" their value effectively.
🤔 Quick Poll: Have you ever felt overlooked at work because you're not "loud" enough?
â—‹ Yes, constantly â—‹ Sometimes â—‹ No, never â—‹ Other (share in comments)
💡 Key Insights from our conversation:
• Technical excellence isn't enough - you need to frame it right • Being an introvert can be a leadership advantage • Your "normal" achievements might be extraordinary to others
My favorite takeaway:Â
The goal isn't to become more extroverted;Â it's to become more strategically visible.
Watch the full episode on my channel (link in bio), where we break down exactly how to do this, including specific scripts and strategies you can use tomorrow.
💠Question for discussion: What's one way you've successfully gained visibility at work while staying true to your introverted nature?
