How are you showing up in your life, career, and relationships? Are you being complacent and doing the bare minimum needed to maintain? Or are you striving to grow, improve, and go above what is expected of you? Take a moment to truthfully consider these questions and determine, are you being acceptable or are you being optimal?
You don’t want people to just agree to collaborate, have conversations, and build relationships with you – you want them to seek out your expertise, advice, and attention. To become irresistibly compelling and seriously relevant in both your personal and professional life, you need to move beyond average and stand out from the crowd. This means setting your sights on more than what is acceptable and reaching for what is optimal.
At Siegfried, we encourage our employees to be exceptional and optimize their potential in all opportunities, experiences, and interactions they encounter. This includes everything from leisure activities – like golfing – to how you show up in the office and with your clients. By working toward the best version of yourself, others will notice your efforts and you will have a magnetism that keeps you relevant in the minds of those around you and inspires success.
