Mental Model

You have achieved career success but what got you here won’t get you there. People continue to see you how you have always been. Your persona has plateaued or is no longer relevant in a rapidly changing world. Re-creating yourself into a new brand is only part of the solution. Selling this new brand confidently with visible signs has a way of influencing people to believe in your new creation. The first person may be you.
