In one form or another, we all seek recognition. For executives in job search, that means being recognized for the value, experience, and impact you bring to an organization.
But even for proven leaders with a strong track record of results, it can be frustrating and demoralizing when you’re repeatedly overlooked in the hiring process.
So how can senior executives better position themselves to be seen, valued, and chosen by employers?
ExecuNet’s Director of Coaching, Harriette Lowenthal, says it starts with clarity and focus in three key areas:
-
Your Accomplishments: The measurable results you’ve achieved and the impact you’ve made.
-
Your Knowledge: The depth of your expertise and strategic insight.
-
Your Value Story: Who you are as a leader and how your unique combination of strengths and experiences translate into value for the next organization.
Harriette emphasizes that every response in an interview should connect back to your Value Story, demonstrating not just what you’ve done, but how you’ll deliver results in the future. This is what truly determines fit.
