In this episode, we will learn about potential strategies for navigating the uncertainty, disruption and fear that comes from mergers, acquisitions and other business transformation. I discussed this and so much more with Jennifer J. Fondrevay, the founder of Day1 Ready™ and author of "Now What? A Survivor’s Guide for Thriving Through Mergers and Acquisitions", on Episode 76 of the Reframe & Reset Your Career podcast.
In this episode, we will learn about:
Pivoting from her initial dream to be the US Ambassador to France to a career in advertising and marketing,
Building your personal brand and digital footprint with marketing principles,
Being thoughtful about your appearance and respecting your audience whether at interview or presenting,
Strengthening connections through finding commonalities,
The lessons she learnt that helped her become a better leader,
Her TEDx talk and focusing on the things we can control such as Talent, Effort & Attitude (TEA),
The power of story telling,
Managing the uncertainty and disruption arising from M&A and business transformation,
Understanding the value you bring to any potential employer, and
Don’t be afraid to move jobs if things are not working out but have a strategy to help you navigate the transition.
Jennifer is the Founder of Day1 Ready™, a consultancy that advises forward-thinking business leaders, owners, and C-Suite executives on how to prepare for the human capital challenges of M&A. As a Fortune 500 C-Suite “survivor” of three multibillion-dollar acquisitions, Jennifer has been on all sides of the deal equation. She saw countless growth strategies fail due to a workforce that couldn’t pivot and adapt as quickly as leadership anticipated.When her Harvard Business Review (HBR) article “After a Merger, Don’t Let “Us vs. Them” Thinking Ruin the Company” went viral, Jennifer recognized the power and interest in a human-centric approach to business transformation, where employees are at the heart of the change. She shares her expertise as a contributor to: Forbes, Harvard Business Review, Thrive Global, American Marketing Association, Middle Market Growth; and as a frequent podcast guest and keynote speaker for HR conferences, associations, and Fortune 500 companies.
Jennifer and I talked about how you can turn things round if you encounter difficulties when leading a new team. She told me "What they wanted to know is how was I going to help them in the present moment, right? They hadn't had a leader in a year and … I worked that much harder to see how can I help this team? What value do I bring to this team? It's not about what I've done in the past, but it's what I can do now to help them in the future, moving forward. It made me work so much harder … it was about what I could do to contribute to their future."

How can insights from a successful career in science and engineering boost your creativity, innovation and career? I discussed this and so much more with Dr Jayshree Seth, Corporate Scientist and Chief Science Advocate at 3M, on Episode 74 of the Reframe & Reset Your Career podcast.
In this episode, we will learn about:
Not worrying about where your career starts and focusing on the journey,
Developing creativity and incorporating innovation into your work,
How learning from failure and being resilient can help your career
The importance of good communication with your stakeholders and managing their expectations,
The mosaic building framework,
Becoming comfortable with change and uncertainty,
Insights to stand out in a job interview,
Strategies to develop your leadership skills and
Not underestimating the impact of luck (good and bad) in your career.
Jayshree is a Corporate Scientist at 3M and currently holds 80 patents for a variety of innovations, with several additional pending. She joined 3M in 1993 after an MS and PhD in Chemical Engineering from Clarkson University, New York. Jayshree was appointed 3M’s first ever Chief Science Advocate in 2018 and is using her scientific knowledge, technical expertise and professional experience to advance science and communicate the benefits of science and the importance of diversity in STEM fields to drive innovation. She is the author of the books, The Heart of Science – Engineering Footprints, Fingerprints, & Imprints, and The Heart of Science – Engineering Fine Print published by the Society of Women Engineers, and all sales proceeds go to a scholarship for underrepresented minority women in STEM. She is a sought-after speaker, globally, on a multitude of topics such as innovation, leadership and STEM advocacy and has featured in local, national and international media.
Jayshree and I talked about learning from failure and she told me: "People are not that comfortable with not knowing and if it doesn't work the way they wished for it to work, it's a failure. Emulating this scientific approach, can benefit career development because you can just adopt a mindset of continuous experimentation and learning … See, we can only learn if we act. And if we act, we can fail. Of course, if you don't act, you can fail too, because you just failed to innovate … embracing failure is part of the learning journey. You build resilience, adaptability, willingness to take risk."

Looking for strategies and insights to help you work with anyone? Amy Gallo and I discussed this, her best-selling book Getting Along and so much more on Episode 73 of the Reframe & Reset Your Career podcast.
In this episode, we will learn about:
Don't be afraid to reach out to people you don't know, people are more helpful than you realise and fortunately, Amy said yes, when I asked her for this episode,
How Amy played to her strengths and shaped her career to align with them,
The potential benefits of facing up to and managing conflict at work,
Why good relationships at work matter,
Dealing with passive aggressive behaviour at work,
Managing a difficult boss, especially an insecure one,
Dealing with a political operator at work and how to get fair credit for your efforts on a project,
The benefits of diverse teams, and
Other principles for getting along with your colleagues.
Amy is a workplace expert who writes and speaks about gender, interpersonal dynamics, difficult conversations, feedback, and effective communication. She is the author of Getting Along: How to Work with Anyone (Even Difficult People) and the HBR Guide to Dealing with Conflict, as well as hundreds of articles for Harvard Business Review. For the past three years, Amy has co-hosted HBR’s popular Women at Work podcast, which examines the struggles and successes of women in the workplace.
She is frequently sought out by media outlets for her perspective on workplace dynamics, conflict, and difficult conversations. Her advice has been featured in The New York Times, Fast Company, Marketplace, and The Austin American-Statesman, as well as on WNYC, the BBC, and ABC (Australian Broadcasting Corporation).
Amy and I talked about managing conflict and she told me: "It is the nature of human relationships that we are going to have conflict, we're going to have disagreements. It's not always going to be perfect, and that's okay … we are just told that conflict has to be heated and mean, and we conflate it with war and with fracturing of relationships, and I would encourage your listeners, choose the three people in your life who you feel closest to, who you trust. My guess is you have conflict with them, right? This is part of being in relationship with other people, and so we have to learn how to embrace it as something that gives us some positive benefits rather than something that should be avoided at all costs."

Looking for ideas and strategies to help you gain a better understanding of yourself and discover insights to improve your career and life? Emilie West, the author of Maximum You, and I discussed this, her work and much more on Episode 71 of the Reframe & Reset Your Career podcast.
In this episode, we will learn about:
Gaining perspective and seeing the bigger picture,
Finding roles which play to your strengths,
Strategies to develop your leadership skills,
Ideas to help you in your job search,
Understanding what makes you unique and articulating this when applying for jobs and interviewing,
Don't put too much pressure on yourself when interviewing as this may stop your authentic self coming out,
The importance of being consistent during your job search and career, and
How to manage a difficult boss.
Emilie is an award-winning coach and speaker who helps her personal and business clients define and achieve their goals through positive change. Emilie combines her coaching experience with her knowledge as a wellness expert to provide holistic coaching supporting mental resilience, physical health and career success. Emilie believes that the key to true inner confidence and life satisfaction lies in taking time to better understand ourselves, learning to play to our strengths and living life authentically.As well as holding a degree in Economics from Warwick University, Emilie is a qualified Nutritional Therapist and an accredited Emotional Intelligence Coach. She is the author of Maximum You, which was recently published and is a great read.
Emilie talked with me about when you're looking for a new job, think about what makes you unique and how you can stand out from the other candidates and told me that. She told me "it's not always the obvious path that gets you where you want to go. Really stop and think about your strengths. You want to go and interview for a job where you are exactly what they're after. If you get very clear on what you're good at, there will be a company out there that really wants what you have to offer. So it's being very good at articulating that, both in a CV, a covering letter, and then with my clients, I will put them through interview practice, and help them get better and better at articulating what their strengths are ... So rather than comparing and despairing ... Think about what advantages do you have over the other candidates?"

Episode 69. How Philosophy Can Boost Your Career & Life – Dr Brennan Jacoby
Thursday Jan 04, 2024
Thursday Jan 04, 2024
Learning about philosophy may seem like a luxury in our fast paced world but it has a number of benefits for your career and life, including developing your critical thinking skills and the ability to solve complex problems. Dr Brennan Jacoby, a philosopher and the founder of Philosophy at Work, and I discussed this, his work with Philosophy at Work and much more on Episode 69 of the Reframe & Reset Your Career podcast.
In this episode, we will learn about:
How serendipity and chance can impact your career,
Plato’s allegory of the cave and how this inspired Brennan’s interest in philosophy,
The benefits of reframing and changing your perspective,
How philosophy can help manage uncertainty and decision making,
Stoic philosophy and controlling what you can control,
Strategies for dealing with failure and regret,
How doing philosophy can develop your thinking and problems solving skills and
Ways of creating space in your schedule to have time to think.
Dr. Brennan Jacoby is a philosopher and the founder of Philosophy at Work, a collective of philosophers that teach the thinking skills professionals need to think their best. Brennan holds a B.A., M.A. and Ph.D in philosophy, and his doctoral work analysed trust in the context of interpersonal relationships and corporate character.
Recent projects include helping Deloitte UK cultivate a growth mindset, supporting The Wellcome Trust to explore trust in healthcare, and enhancing curiosity across Sony Music’s global community.
Brennan works across industries and sectors (examples include groups from Herbert Smith Freehills, Sky, Sony Music, Slaughter and May, Hogan Lovells, Capital One Bank, Deloitte, Media Arts Lab, Ropes and Gray, The Guardian, Nike, and The Financial Times), and with global teams, having delivered sessions in the UK, Ireland, USA, Germany, Belgium, Portugal, Denmark, Spain, Australia and Taiwan.
In addition to his role with Philosophy at Work, Brennan is a fellow at the Royal Society of the Arts. Originally from Detroit Michigan, he studied in Sydney, Australia and is now based in the UK.
Brennan talked with me about the benefits of philosophy and how it helps to develop your thinking and told me “complex problem solving, critical thinking and creative thinking are things that are needed for the future of work, for the fourth Industrial Revolution and that's what you get, those are the muscles that are built up when you do philosophy because you're given a tough challenge … doing philosophy is good for careers because we know that careers these days are so dependent on not just what you know but how you make sense of the data and also how you move from one thing you know to the next right or from one job to the next and so it's good not just for work but it's particularly good for careers because of careers being about how you navigate things right how you move from one point to the next.”
