Editor's Notes
- #2 Tuesday, April 28, 2020 | Amplify Your Accomplishments Nora Denzel says, “It’s not what you know and it’s not who you know. It’s who knows what you know.” Your company and colleagues can’t fully appreciate how to leverage you as a resource if they don’t know about your track record and unique talents. Find the approach to amplifying your accomplishments and value that fits your style and is effective in your organization. (Training) Speaker: Jo Miller, CEO, Be Leaderly
