I've probably made just about every mistake you can make if you want to have a successful career, and yet I've managed to climb the career ladder to the top.

But how was that possible, even though I
- always talked myself and my successes down
- was not able to do self-promotion or networking
- had difficulty asserting myself and saying no
- never stood in my full power because I always wanted to be perfect
- left parts of my personality at the office doorstep because I wanted to please

I've often wondered how I made it to a C-level role and attribute it to two main things:
👉 I have a strong ambition to learn, I love trying new things and growing. This always gave me the drive to step out of my comfort zone despite my lack of self-confidence and actively seek the next challenging role.
👉 I was simply lucky that my work was widely visible and therefore got noticed without self-promotion. In corporate communication, I had the chance to work on important global projects that got a lot of attention company-wide. This also gave me visibility and I was seen by the decision-makers.

Today, when I help clients advance their careers, it's often about these two areas: Believing in yourself and learning to step far out of your comfort zone and making your hard work visible to others.

What is it like for you? Is it easy for you to step on new ground without knowing what exactly is coming up? And is your work visible enough or do you work in the background and are not recognized for your achievements?

Intuition is a leadership skill that many of us forget about.

Also known as "sixth-sense", "gut feeling" and "inner knowing", it is a key trait that would define your success in the corporate world.

In my latest episode, my guest, Heidi Hauer (@heidi.hauer), holistic health expert and leadership coach, joined me to discuss how you can further grow and leverage your intuition to use it as relatable guidance in your professional and private life.

When I was in my late twenties, I was told for the first time that I was arrogant.

This happened at a time when I had just accepted a new professional challenge. I felt insecure, stressed and was doing everything I could to cope with the new job and my new team.

Therefore, this statement hit me like a blow. When I inquired how exactly it was meant, it turned out that the others perceived me as aloof and thought I was keeping my distance because I thought I was better than them.

But in reality, just the opposite was true. I didn't dare to come out of myself, struggled with massive imposter syndrome, and was trapped in my shyness.

It was then that I understood for the first time how far my self-perception was from my outward appearance. One simply had nothing to do with the other! Nevertheless, for me, my lack of self-confidence and for the others, my arrogance was the "reality" and both were based on exactly the same behavior on my part.

Getting this feedback was painful but was and still is very valuable to me today. Even though it took me many years to bring my self-confidence to a level where I could really open up, it was still helpful to know about my external effect during all these years. That way I could at least deal with conflicts that arose from this (mis)perception.

How about you? Have you ever asked yourself how others perceive you and how your self-image and beliefs affect your outer appearance and your relationships with others?
