In today´s episode of the âProfessional Success Podcastâ, host Sheila Boysen-Rotelli, a Master Certified Career Coach, Recruiter, and Talent Development Leader is talking about the power of saying no, and how we can set better professional boundaries. Sheila is going to share some examples of how we can set clear boundaries at work and how saying no can be key to wellness and self-preservation.
Episode Highlights:
Sheila suggests defining your boundaries at work with clarity of purpose. Saying yes to everything is the lazy person's path and a strategic âNoâ is the best way to maximize the value you deliver. There are a lot of subtle and graceful ways where we can say âNoâ without being a jerk. There's a whole spectrum of responses that lie between yes and no. One of the ways to say âNoâ would be that instead of you having feelings of insecurity with a âNoâ, be honest and acknowledge that you are not the most competent in that particular work and suggest another name who can do it more efficiently and ask if he/she can help out? If your boss asks you to take extra responsibility, then try to pose some questions to her to understand exactly what she needs. By better understanding what your manager needs to achieve, you might be able to recommend a much simpler solution to the problem. Sometimes you're asked to do something you can't manage and there may be a way to add value without taking on the weight of the entire project onto your shoulders.3 Key Points:
Instead of saying no directly, you can work with graceful responses like we want to resist taking on a cumbersome project by getting a better understanding of why it's necessary and possibly suggesting alternative action plans. Additionally, we may want to contribute a smaller percentage of our time to a project instead of tackling 100% of it. Stick with your purpose to focus on what you're uniquely hired to do. Sometimes there's an emergency, or something's on fire, or sometimes we need to earn a few points with someone who's asked a favor. In such situations where the request is a challenge and we've been trying to get our hands on it, in such scenarios use your judgment. Sometimes letting take us off purpose is the right thing to do, but this should be the exception and not the rule. If you're being asked to take on something cumbersome and it would take you days to complete what they're asking for. Your response starts with recognizing that your time is a company asset. Let her know exactly how much of your time and attention this task would require and what might not get done as a consequence. Then ask her if sheâd be open to exploring more efficient ways of getting similar results. So by asking those probing questions, you might be able to protect the investment of your time and energy while also delivering real value.Resources Mentioned:

In today´s episode of the âProfessional Success Podcastâ, host Sheila Boysen-Rotelli, a Master Certified Career Coach, Recruiter, and Talent Development Leader talks about how to become a purpose and belonging informed leader. Purpose and belonging informed leaders prioritize genuine care of their employees above all else. Even when employees leave to continue their careers elsewhere, these leaders continue to act in these people's best interests.
Episode Highlights:
The mass resignation triggered by the global pandemic has made recruiting and retaining talent, one of the biggest challenges for leaders and organizations. Young professionals have become pickier about who and what they work for rather than quit working altogether. As tires need to be aligned to keep the car going, so do purposes. Purpose and belonging informed leaders act on purpose by making decisions that have put people in purpose before the performance, and profits, even if that requires sacrifice. These leaders cultivate transformational and not transactional relationships. Transactional leaders rely on rewards pay titles, perks, or punishments to keep employees in line.Resources Mentioned:

In today´s episode of the âProfessional Success Podcastâ, host Sheila Boysen-Rotelli, a Master Certified Career Coach, Recruiter, and Talent Development Leader talks about how to communicate with a critical Manager. She discusses the ways that we can handle a very critical boss.
Episode Highlights:
We may have had bosses who inspired her, challenged and pushed her. She has had some that have bored her, and some that have even made her cry. Begin by understanding what might be triggering the bad behavior in your boss, so we can do this by starting with empathy. Without excusing the critical delivery mechanism, it might help to see if you can look past the criticism to the content in terms of figuring out why your boss is trying to communicate. You can say that you have some specific changes to suggest that might enhance your relationship with your boss and make both of you even more positive and productive as you work together. Make that request for better, and more balanced feedback and communication from your boss. You have the right to feel safe and respected at work, if a boundary has been pierced, don't ignore it. These are complicated times and the job market might feel a little intimidating but if your relationship with your boss isn't improving, itâs time to start planning your next move.3 Key Points:
Recently, Sheila worked with two separate clients who have brought this as the main topic of struggling with an overly critical boss. The idea is that bosses can really vary in their style and how they like to work with others. How they communicate might just come down to the fact that some bosses really are better than others. Sheila suggests that first, we need to assess the situation. Your boss does not have the right to behave badly but you do need to have some degree of control over your response to their behavior. So we can empathize with this critical boss. Sometimes understanding or imagining what the other person might be experiencing allows us to replace some of our emotions, anger, and defensiveness, with instead empathy and recognition. So begin by understanding what might be triggering the behavior and see if you're able to take some of your own reactivity off the table. At this point, use language that's typical for your company's culture. So you might say that you would like to discuss your career development, or just sit down for a one-on-one. These are all legitimate reasons for meetings. So choose what feels most authentic to you and in line with the language that your organization uses. So feeling judged and criticized all the time can really weigh on us. Your goal in the conversation is to focus on the professional impact of what you've been experiencing, and lean into the opportunity and not the complaint. -
In today´s episode of the âProfessional Success Podcastâ, host Sheila Boysen-Rotelli, a Master Certified Career Coach, Recruiter, and Talent Development Leader is talking about what we can do when we start to feel completely overwhelmed by that to-do list that probably most of us have experienced several times.
Episode Highlights:
It is important to focus on what we have control over when we reach the state of overwhelm with our to-do list. It's important to be confident when you raise the red flag stating that you can't handle everything because you are taking accountability for ensuring nothing falls through. Feeling overwhelmed on occasion is normal, but we want to try to keep the overwhelm from touching others. The next time you are feeling overwhelmed, but the strategies we discuss into play to help you move to a better place.Resources Mentioned:

In today´s episode of the âProfessional Success Podcastâ, host Sheila Boysen-Rotelli, a Master Certified Career Coach, Recruiter, and Talent Development Leader is talking about how to change careers.
Episode Highlights:
Whether it be big or small, making a career change can feel intimidated because it feels like such a leap of faith. Specific credentials might not be fully transferable. However, they can show that you're capable of mastering and applying new skills. Most hiring is now done by keyword matching which is a challenge today and HR departments love it because it gives them the illusion that they are getting the right candidates. Be prepared to network your way into that new career. Let everyone know what kind of opportunities you're looking for. Ask them to share their knowledge and ask for their advice. -

In today´s episode of the âProfessional Success Podcastâ, host Sheila Boysen-Rotelli, a Master Certified Career Coach, Recruiter, and Talent Development Leader is talking about five simple steps that we can take to master a new skill in just 30 days. This involves developing a 30-day program using incremental bite-sized progress steps.
3 Key Points:
The first step is to identify the key elements to master.Start by finding the most important components of a skill, the basics that underlie everything else. The second step would be to grab a blank calendar and design a 30-day challenge for yourself to practice the foundational skills. Decide how much time you'll do each day learning, and then write down 30 incremental things youâll do each day to move along the learning curve. Each day you should focus on just one new skill but those skills combined should add up to real progress. Brains learn best when they can focus on a problem. During your practice, deliberately choose one thing to master and put your attention there. Each day of the challenge should push you a little past your current skill level. You don't need to practice the same elements of a skill every day.Resources Mentioned:

In today´s episode of the âProfessional Success Podcastâ, host Sheila Boysen-Rotelli, a Master Certified Career Coach, Recruiter, and Talent Development Leader is talking about something that is particularly important because almost everyone seems to be experiencing this at least at some level of their career where we feel that everything is a priority. She discusses a few points on what we can do when it feels like everything is a priority.
Episode Highlights:
These days we are all feeling like everything is on fire, and as more of us are working remotely or in a hybrid fashion, we're missing those in-person cues that help us to interpret where our leaders are feeling their greatest anxiety. You're the only one who knows how much is on your plate; no one else can track that. Therefore, it's on you to step up and manage your boundaries and energy. The reality is that what's important today might be less important or even irrelevant tomorrow, the backend by or the following day, everything is relative. It's all about the context in the bigger picture and having those important conversations. Whatever tips you follow, before you start, do a little research, and dig around. Sheilaâs final tip is to consider the options beyond just yes and no. The key is to recognize that there're lots of ways to add value without taking on the entire burden.3 Key Points:
The first step is to start with being bold. Sometimes overfilling our plates can leave us feeling like superheroes. Pushing for clarity takes courage and energy and it takes a willingness to be vulnerable to admit that you can't handle everything because youâre a human being. So start by recognizing, and raising the flag. If you were to look at each task on a project or everything that is on your plate, each of them would come out as a high priority. But the key is relativity, so look around you what's going on today, if anything important popped up. So, given everything that's going on our plates, we could pop into looking at what is taking place or whatâs the context. High achievers are many things, but leveraging things built by others often is not one of them. We don't need to always reinvent the wheel. Borrowing from others doesn't make you lazy, it makes you strategic and it frees you up to invest your energy where it matters most. consider borrowing some of the great work that someone's already done, of course, give credit where it's due. As you look at your plate, identify if your workload is manageable, or if you're feeling overwhelmed, consider borrowing one of these strategies and test out how it works. -
In today´s episode, host Sheila Boysen-Rotelli, Master Certified Career Coach, Recruiter, and Talent Development Leader, talks about her process for creating and delivering her TED talk.
Episode Highlights:
In 2019 Sheila Boysen was invited to give a TED talk. When she wrapped her head around the idea, and she was about to get into the entire process of directing and memorizing her talk, it is then that the pandemic hit. Sadly, due to the pandemic, the event that she was going to speak at got canceled. This has been a goal for her, and when the TED talk got canceled, it really took a hit on her. She somehow managed to push through the ocean of her emotions. Sheila heard some good news in the summer of 2020 when she got another opportunity to get featured as a TEDx speaker. She knew the recording of the event was not going to take place until March. As the first step of preparation, she wrote down her ideas. The next thing she thought about was, âWhat she wants her audience to leave with?â When Sheila had the idea, it is, then she started writing about the script. She wrote the first draft of the script towards the end of October. Sheila Boysen got her confidence boost when her sister read the script. Finally, when she had just 2 months left for the recording, she buckled up and revisited her script. She recorder herself while practicing the script. It was a robust process, which helped her. It is then she made the first modification to her script. During her next practice, she recorded it in-camera. This gave her a new perspective about the places that she should emphasize more. At this point, she made more edits in the paragraphs. It felt like, finally, the script was falling into space. In February, Sheila got the opportunity to rehearse with the planning community of the event. Aside from her sister, this was the first time anybody else heard her script. Post that, Sheila receives some excellent constructive feedback from the planning community of the event, which helped her. She was finally able to memorize the script, and then she got to the point where it felt like now, she must sound natural. Sheila recorded the video on Wednesday in an empty hall, speaking to an audience that does not exist. It is impressive how she started to feel comfortable, and she ended up delivering the entire talk in one take. The most important thing about âTalksâ is that one should always speak on a topic they are sincerely wholeheartedly passionate about. The topic for Sheila Boysenâs Ted Talk was âChange the question: What do you want to be when you grow up?â The question implies that we integrate a part of ourselves into our work. Sheila talks about the change she made in her career script instead of thinking, âWhat I want to be when I grow up?â She started focusing on her values and what was most important for her, and the impact she wanted to make. While doing research, she came across numerous quotes that impacted her. âDo not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.â - A quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson really caught her eyes. Sheila talks about the three questions that one can ask to determine their values truly.3 Key Points:
Sheila Boysen shares detailed insights about what steps she took to prepare for the TED talk. Write down the free flow of thoughts and start to pay attention to those common threads. From the thread, think about âWhat do you want to talk or share about the most?â For Sheila, it was about the idea of enjoying work. Sheila is not a nervous speaker, but the process of memorizing the script under 12 minutes did not come naturally to her.Tweetable Quotes:

In today´s episode of the âProfessional Success Podcastâ, your host Sheila Boysen-Rotelli, a Master Certified Career Coach, Recruiter, and Talent Development Leader talks about how to ask great questions at work. Sheila gives her insights on what a great question can do, and how you might benefit from asking one. She also discusses the underlying reasons keeping you away from asking the questions that would help you to make progress.
Episode Highlights:
A great question is the ultimate and fastest path to an answer or cool discovery, mentions Sheila. Maintaining connections to a community or a purpose is a hot topic. Asking questions can be a simple way to keep connection right there at the forefront. Sometimes it's not that you don't know something or can't figure it out. It's just that you've been spinning on it for a while and you need to break that cycle. Asking questions to allow someone else to showcase their thinking or their willingness to think out loud can be an incredible gift as it can help them to grow and demonstrate their capability as a leader and someone or following.3 Key Points:
Sheila mentions that when you ask questions strategically, it has the power to connect, expand ideas, and develop your capabilities. Asking a question can showcase your idea, but also invite people to weigh in. You are not just asking for approval instead, you're genuinely seeking input and their ideas. Asking questions can challenge or develop someone else, so there's this thing that Sheila does, sometimes when she is facilitating a meeting she will pose a question to someone specific. Not because she doesnât know the answer, but because she sees an opportunity to shine a spotlight on them.Resources Mentioned:

In today´s episode of the âProfessional Success Podcastâ, your host Sheila Boysen-Rotelli, a Master Certified Career Coach, Recruiter, and Talent Development Leader talks about âExecutive Presence in 2022â. Sheila thinks that 2022 is a great year for us to be thinking about our executive presence.
Episode Highlights:
We all have an opportunity to groom our ability to connect, work well with other people, and face challenging situations. Authenticity doesn't mean expressing every emotion you feel to the fullest extent, it means being willing to state your honest opinions. The second element in the Trust Triangle is Empathy. Empathy is essentially the degree to which you can appreciate and tend to the experiences of others. Demonstrating empathy is grounded in listening fully and actively. Stay away from the âBumper Stickerâ Ideas when youâre striving to dial up your logic. One such Bumper Sticker Idea is living each day as if it was your last; itâs inspiring until you think through the consequences. You can present a solid plan that still carries uncertainty, just be sure you acknowledge that uncertainty with a promise to resolve it, rather than pulling your way through an evasive answer.3 Key Points:
The world was a little bit upside down until the rules have changed. She also thinks the drivers of executive presence have shifted, and this is something that she often coaches people on. She talks about how leaning on three things that are key to executive presence can help you. Those three components are known as the Trust Triangle - Authenticity, Empathy, and Logic. Research shows us that it's not fair that women are disproportionately penalized for displaying negative emotions in the workplace, and black men are burdened by the false stereotype that they're predisposed to anger. So when people see you expressing yourself verbally and physically it opens the door to a true diversity of opinions, ideas, and approaches. It unlocks imagination and makes the debate industry feel safer. Listening matters now more than ever, because we're continuing to head into uncharted territory. Even the most experienced leader doesn't know what's coming next. There are a few ideas to work on or to think about to dial up your empathy. It's hard to demonstrate empathy when you're distracted and focus on what others need to get out of the meeting.]Resources Mentioned:

In today´s episode of the âProfessional Success Podcastâ, your host Sheila Boysen-Rotelli, a Master Certified Career Coach, Recruiter, and Talent Development Leader talks about whether a 40-hour workweek is still required if you want to earn a full-time salary. She gives her views on the other options than a 40-hour workweek.
3 Key Points:
There are three questions to answer. First, which 40 hours? Secondly, how do you spend those 40 hours, and then what is the impact you're feeling or the lack of impact you're feeling from your 40 hours? It is not so much a matter of how hard we're working, but rather how much we have exerted all of our energy. One thing that we can do here is to examine specific tasks or activities or things that are just soul-sucking for you. If you're feeling a little bit exhausted by your work there are several ways you can infuse little bits of meaning or purpose into your days that just might recharge you and this includes monetizing your hobbies like starting a blog, offering guitar lessons, photography, or teaching finance, etc.Resources Mentioned:

In today´s episode of the âProfessional Success Podcastâ, your host Sheila Boysen-Rotelli, a Master Certified Career Coach, Recruiter, and Talent Development Leader talks on the topic âHow to Explore Other Career Options without Losing Your Jobâ. She discusses the ways to start exploring alternative careers without putting your current career at risk. If you've been feeling stuck, looking for a change, but you've been a little bit scared about making a dramatic change, these tips would inspire you to take some low-risk action.
Episode Highlights:
In the last few weeks, for various reasons, Sheila has talked to people about unemployment, overwhelm, disengagement, and reprioritization of what matters most professionally. Before you jump into that level of commitment of making that career change, the first step could be talking to some teachers about their experience of what they do, being thoughtful about it. Sheila and her consultant friend had a conversation and Sheila encouraged him to register for an online introduction to analytics class. The final option is to define your passion and find your transition in the house where you are right now. See if you can start networking and learning about the different roles you're interested in and maybe make a smaller step within the organization.3 Key Points:
Sheila mentions that before you take a leap of making a big career move, choosing someone whose perspective feels relevant to where you are in your journey could be a little bit better. So, think about asking questions that will bring legitimate insights, try asking deeper questions. The answers to these types of questions might reveal a deeper layer of insight to help you make informed decisions. Remember your contactsâ answers don't have to define your choice. They're simply a part of helping you make an informed decision. If your passion or what you want to be doing might differ from what you're doing right now. It might be an option to see if you too can jump into the gig economy, without needing to make a huge transition all at once.Resources Mentioned:

In today´s episode of the âProfessional Success Podcastâ, your host Sheila Boysen-Rotelli, a Master Certified Career Coach, Recruiter, and Talent Development Leader talks about how listening can help your career. She says whether your goal is landing a new job, getting promoted, building better relationships, or greater productivity, listening is something that you want to focus on improving.
Episode Highlights:
Famous author - Kate Murphy while conducting many interviews in her book-learned that nearly everyone can describe a bad listening experience. Key tip: Let the other speaker finish. When someone is speaking, our brain works to actively try to finish their sentence or idea. The next thing to focus on is we need to let go of pre bubbles, it is a very common practice to begin formulating a response before the other person has even completed their idea. The final tip is to summarize, it's a great way to make sure you've understood the other person. Use the language of the other person, even if it's not necessarily the language you would commonly use. Sheila talks about some scenarios about getting a new job, or getting a promotion at work. She discusses what you need to do in these cases. Half listening or making assumptions can get you to the finish line sooner but you might be heading towards the wrong finish line. Sheila refers to a story that Kate shares in her book wherein the 1950s Betty Crocker launched a new product designed to appeal to busy homemakers and how the product sales soared.3 Key Points:
Focus and try not to multitask like checking your phone. Recognize listening as an active process that requires your full attention. The truth is human beings are not good multitaskers. Our brains simply cannot listen, and formulate at the same time which means as soon as we start thinking about what we want to say, instead, what we're going to say, it cuts off our ability to actively listen. So the idea is don't think about how you're going to respond until the other person has finished speaking. It's okay to give yourself a moment to think about what you want to say before responding. Asking some questions about what's working and what's not, and then listening to the answers can provide all the inspiration required. There are many opportunities we leave on the table every time we don't ask questions and then just listen.Resources Mentioned:

She stresses that it is a great time for people who are considering switching careers, to make a transition.
Episode Highlights:
Avoid potential things that could cause ageism. Unfortunately, assumptions that people make about age referred to as ageism becomes a problem. Drop email addresses including AOL, Hotmail or Yahoo as they are considered outdated and shift to something that's of much more importance like Gmail. Due to the recent pandemic situation, it could be a really good time to play-up your remote skills in the resume. Even if a person doesn't necessarily have experience working remotely, there are other transferable experiences to highlight in this section. âThis really is a particularly good time to refresh your resume and to start looking for that new position.â It is a great time for people who are considering switching careers, to make a transition.3 Key Points:
You don't need to include every single thing you did on your resume. She says you can always include other important things in a cover letter or discuss those during an interview conversation. Other than limiting occupational history that contains dates to 10 or 15 years you also want to omit any graduation dates omitting any graduation dates. She also says that showcasing objectives on top of the resume is a very outdated practice and should not be used anymore. Beyond people switching positions within their industry, the current job market could really also provide prospective job seekers with the ability to test a new career path. This current pandemic situation is highlighting more companies to consider transferable skills and skills-based hiring, as a way to hire new talent.Resources Mentioned:

In today´s episode of the âProfessional Success Podcastâ, your host Sheila Boysen-Rotelli, a Professor Master Certified Career Coach, Recruiter, and Talent Development Leader talks about âGrit at Workâ. One common thing most successful and famous people have is that they keep going even after multiple failures. It's like they have the feeling of grit and determination that they would succeed.
Episode Highlights:
JK Rowling was rejected by more than 10 Publishers who just didn't see that magic of Harry Potter and Oprah was fired from her first-ever Anchor job on TV. Angela Duckworth, a Professor of Psychology at the University of Pennsylvania introduced the concept of grit in her 2016 book âGrit - The power of passion and perseverance. If you're striving to grow in your career, Grit, definitely matters, and there are a few key ways that we can cultivate it. When most people practice, they focus on the things they already know how to do but deliberate practice looks a little bit different. This is because it entails considerable specific and sustained effort to do something that you can't already do well. One tactic that works well is to keep a journal of your progress somewhere where you're writing this down in a consistent way.3 Key Points:
Sheila talks about a few successful people who even in their moments of setback or even feeling a little bit devastated kept going because there's one thing that they all have in common which is Grit. She refers to this concept of grit as a leading force behind what it takes to stick to it. Grit is the quality that allows an individual to work hard and maintain focus and this is not just for weeks, or months, but for years. It's that will, it's that commitment, and it's that perseverance to keep pursuing excellence at something even in the face of multiple setbacks. By developing an ability to commit and persevere, starts with our motivation to do this. We have to begin with something that we care about improving. When we talk about developing Grit, it means practicing something that you're striving for. We have a chance to improve Grit, so what you want to do is look for the people around you who can cheer you on, because the power of that collective can help us to all standpoints.Resources Mentioned:

In today´s episode of the âProfessional Success Podcastâ, your host Sheila Boysen-Rotelli, a Master Certified Career Coach, Recruiter, and Talent Development Leader talks about âIntrapreneurshipâ. She discusses what is intrapreneurship and why should we consider it.
Episode Highlights:
MIT Sloan School of Management defines âIntrapreneurshipâ as acting like an Entrepreneur within an established company. You might consider âIntrapreneurshipâ if you feel like you have an untapped level of talent or passion that you could use to make an impact at work. Begin with the problem and then set out to solve it, seeing the pain point within your organization. Intrapreneurs don't wait for invitations, they make things happen.3 Key Points:
Intrapreneurs develop new programs, products, services, or innovations within an existing organization. However, both use many of the same skills, things as creativity, agility, leadership, and persistence. So it's like behaving like an entrepreneur but within the safety of an established company. Before you start duct-taping widgets or switches together, begin by defining an outcome you want to deliver, or a problem that you specifically plan to solve. So to do that, look around, see what challenges exist right now, and what needs to be solved where you can make a big impact something you'd be excited about working on. As an Intrapreneur, you want to socialize your ideas. So once you've got this idea, you've maybe thought there are some solutions or possibilities. It's almost time to kind of move into that sales mode that's selling. Unlike entrepreneurs who have no choice but to pound the pavement and find clients or customers for their business.Tweetable Quotes:
