Who let the guy in here?! Hi! I'm Elliott, Career Contessa's first male mentor. I'm excited to meet you! A few things about me: - I'm currently in Charlotte, NC, but I've previously lived in 6 countries on 4 continents. - I have a wife and baby boy who both love to swim. - I love a good run and I'm working towards a 10K one day. - I've kicked my candy habit like... 37 times. It's a problem. - My favorite things to do professionally are coaching and running workshops for clients. - I've worked at or consulted with some of the coolest tech and consumer product companies in the world If you're looking to get more out of your work, you've come to the right mentor. To help you win at work, I specialize in these three areas: Career exploration/transition: If you want to change industries or functions to better align with your skills, passions, and goals, then I can help you successfully make the switch. Don't underestimate the change in perspective necessary to make past experiences appear attractive to future opportunities. Managing up (and down): If you want to get scary good at reading a room, intuiting what colleagues and managers mean by the things they say and do, motivating misaligned teammates, or building more high-value relationships at work, then I will give you the tools you need. Remember: it's not "what" you know or even "who" you know, but how well you understand the people around you. Pursuing YOUR goals: If you're not getting as much personal benefit from your job as you'd like (think: personal/professional development, fair compensation, growth opportunities), I can teach you how to meet YOUR objectives and company objectives without any additional stress or strain. Let's get smart about advocating for YOU. __________________________ Feel free to reach out on LinkedIn (https://www.linkedin.com/in/elliottdavis1/) if you'd like a FREE 15-minute vibe check before booking.
