#58: 6 Strategic Moves To Stand Out As A Senior Leader (Even In A Crowded Market)
Are you reassessing how you position yourself in the current market? Or rethinking how to use AI and optimise your CV to land your next role?
That’s exactly what I’m addressing on today’s podcast.
Here’s what I’m hearing in recent conversations with senior leaders and executives: The job market feels tight, competition is fierce — and they’re struggling to stand out when hundreds of candidates are applying for the same role.
One leader spent several hours researching a potential employer and customising their application, only to be rejected the same day.
These individuals are more than qualified. They’re being selective about the positions they’re applying for and taking time to tailor each application — but getting nowhere.
When the market tightens, competition becomes even harder at senior levels. If you’re waiting to be selected or relying solely on job boards right now, it’s time to rethink your approach.
In this episode, I’m sharing 6 strategic moves to help you stand out as a senior leader — even in a crowded market. Discover how to move from competing with hundreds of other candidates to positioning yourself strategically.
You’ll learn:
- The first step to take right NOW if your current strategy isn’t working, so you take control of your job search
- How to cut out the competition and access the 70% of roles most candidates never see
- One of the biggest mistakes people make when networking — and how to eliminate procrastination, so you get results faster
- Practical ways to map the market and align your networking to the right opportunities — rather than relying on scattered outreach
- The most powerful way to build long-term relationships and become part of the conversation before roles are even defined
- My top tips for optimising your CV to clearly communicate your value on paper, so you stand out as a senior leader
So hit play now — and let’s dive in!
