THE SQUIGGLY CAREER
About this episode

We often talk about the value of having a role model - someone to learn from and be inspired by. But what about the impact of being a role model?


In this week’s episode, Helen and Sarah explore how being a role model can support your development, raise your profile, and help you build stronger connections at work. When you're intentional about how you show up, you attract opportunities and create a community around your work. They explore practical ideas to help you decide your role model focus, borrow brilliance, and put role modelling into practice in your day-to-day work.
