I recently had another of my thought leadership pieces excerpted over on the PR Managers site as part of a broader post entitled “How Creativity and Problem-Solving Skills Overcome Career Challenges” (which I have also shared as a screenshot below). In it I share the example of when I founded and subsequently led the first ever Internal Comms Video Team at Meta.
I have an upcoming blog post where I will talk more about how to craft and create the job you want; something I managed to successfully do in almost every company I have worked for. I have also spoken about this in my most popular post about bringing Batman to work.
This particular example at Meta is one of the ones I am most proud of, because I managed to find that sweet spot between what I’m passionate about, what I’m good at, and also what makes sense for the business. That’s rare but it is possible with the right work environment, a supportive manager and an unmet business need. All it required was a bit of ingenuity and some old fashioned hard work.
It still stands as one of my career high tide marks.
