If you are a senior leader, it can be tough getting to a more senior position, or perhaps to a board, or to a much larger organization. That is because most organizations today are shaped like a triangle where there are more opportunities at the lower level and fewer opportunities as you get to the higher level.
We spoke with Brad McMahon, Managing Director of Optimum Consulting, about how leaders can continue to evolve their career given that their jobs are more competitive and there are less opportunities in the market.
For 25 years in recruitment and consulting, Brad has been helping business leaders about how to improve their career and in this video, we will hear more about:
- Where do you find these leadership jobs?
- How can you get the best possible chance to get the jobs when you find them?
- How many leadership jobs are out there?
- What should you do to get them?
- When is the best time to be preparing for a higher leadership role?
- Some of the common reasons why people missed out.
- Is cultural-fit a factor in getting these jobs?
- What is the best advice to get these leadership roles that are not advertised?
