Do the people you work with understand what you’re good at? I don’t mean what you do or what your job description is, but what you’re good at – how you add value to your organisation, how you can help other people do their jobs more effectively.
I sometimes wonder whether everyone I work with understands exactly how Planners can help them understand their target audience better to make communications with them more effective. “We’d better get a Planner in” is no good unless they know why they are doing it. More internal training needed I think.
Ofcourse, people really do not understand at most of the times “why they are doing what they are doing”
Interesting question! Often it is easy to focus on the projects that we work on to the detriment of our own personal profile. But the two go hand in hand … perhaps we need to do more internal “selling” than training.
