The Maven Principle: Mastering Power Skills for Personal DevelopmentHeather Newman
Join founder and CEO of Creative Maven, Heather Newman as she takes you through the power skills that are essential to each of us becoming stronger employees and better humans.
We hear the term “soft skills” as the definition of personal attributes that enable us to interact effectively and harmoniously with other people.
However, there is nothing soft about mastering these skills; there is “strength” in the practice of developing these “Power” skills that are more intangible but critical to your working and interacting with the people around you effectively.
The best investment you can make is in yourself and practicing power skills helps you produce the results you want at work, at home, and in the world, building that expertise in the most critical person in your life, you.

Many of us post on social media, share ideas, give opinions, and at times spend more time than we should writing long replies to someone else’s post.
Social media is great, and we all can see its benefits, but a post is fleeting and a moment never lasts...and creating content takes AGES!!!
You need to create content that will RESONATE with your audience in a way that you have NEVER connected before and then to be able to very simply share it.

The C2C Be Tempting Strategy Guide
“What does it take to be successful?”
“How do we build a magnetic personality?”
“How do we actually become tempting?”
To put simply and succinctly, the C2C Be Tempting Strategy Guide equips you with all the tools for “strategies that enable you to enhance your life in all domains"
How to think like an entrepreneur involves a ton of stuff...way too much stuff! Welcome to my brain dump of skills and traits and all kinds of magic that make an entrepreneur successful.
One of the secrets to being successful in business, regardless of whether you want to be an intrapreneur or an entrepreneur, is design thinking. We must empathize with our audience, listen to them, gain insights from them, develop our product roadmaps around their feedback & continuing to rinse & repeat.
In addition to design thinking, we must understand the blueprint of our business, and that is capturing the high level points in the form of a business model canvas. It may seem academic, but it is truly helpful to make sure you understand & can describe your business to others in a succinct fashion. Love it or hate it...it's helpful!
Lastly, we must all understand the buyer of our products and services so we know how to paint a picture around who to talk to when it comes to gaining audience insights, capturing the insights & keeping them fresh in our mind when we go to market.
Is this deck messy and jumping around a bit? Maybe, but I swear there's a method to the madness.
Dr. Sassi's Trifecta of Skills: Your Formula for Future ReadinessDr. Melissa Sassi
Preparing for the future of work is wicked hard to navigate, right? How do you know if you are future proof? According to Dr. Melissa Sassi's Trifecta of Skills, there are three main buckets of skills required to be prepared for the future of work, including: (1) digital skills & readiness, (2) habitudes (habits & attitudes) or a fancy way of saying life skills, and (3) entrepreneurial thinking. Each skill bucket includes eight competencies for a total of 24 competencies. Dig in, choose two to focus on per month, and make yourself bulletproof when it comes to future readiness.

YOUTH ARE THE FUTURE
Youth should be included
at the center of everything
& this includes both
learning & thought
leadership.
YOUTH INCLUSION
7. FOCUS ON MICRO-
MENTORSHIP.
Mentorship doesn't have
to be long-term or
forever. What do you
need now? Why wait?
BITE-SIZED MAGIC
Dive in & out as needs,
problems, or opportunities
arise. Be specific with your

big.

& I often fail here!
TIME MATTERS
10. EMBRACE VULNERABILITY.
Don't be afraid to admit
your weaknesses, fears,
inner thoughts, aspirations,
pain points & whatever else
might be on your mind.
OWN IT
Be open so your Thrive
Hive can help you move
from where you are to
where you plan to go.
LEADERSHIP
Be unapologetically you
with authenticity &
transparency. It makes you
human! Who needs fake
friends or colleagues?
BE HUMAN
11. CAPTURE YOUR ACTION
ITEMS.
Summarize the actions you
plan to take following the
recommendations from your
Thrive Hive.
SUMMARIZE
Communicate with
empathy, diplomacy &
respect when advice from
might be troublesome for
you.
NO ONE KNOWS IT ALL
Use critical thinking &
combine learnings from
your Thrive Hive with
reputable data as you
execute your action plan.
CRITICALLY THINK
12. BE A FRIEND.
Be a friend, reciprocate, but
know when you are out of
your depth or unable to
allocate time due to
competing responsibilities.
SAY NO WHEN NEEDED
Follow through on
commitments. Never over
promise & under deliver. If
you do, apologize & take
things in stride.
FOLLOW THROUGH
Identify hidden talents by
helping to share your skills
forward & continue to add
to your secret sauce.
HIDDEN TALENTS
13. GIVE THANKS.
Say thank you & do it often.
Express gratitude to your
Thrive Hive for enabling you
to build your career &
achieve your dreams.
GIVE THANKS
Don't be afraid to give
your Thrive Hive shout
outs in social media if it
fits your personal brand &
style. Don't be shy!
SHARE IN SOCIAL MEDIA
Document your learning
journey in short videos,
photos, or blogs. Enable
others to learn from your
experience & insights.
LOUD & PROUD
14. #DoTheThing
#Loud&Proud
Make an intention to follow
through on advice from
your Thrive Hive as
appropriate. Don't be a
nothing burger.
INTENTIONS
Use data & critical thinking
to decide how to take
action. Don't ignore your
gut when taking action
from your Thrive Hive.
THINK CRITICALLY
Whatever that thing is that
you've always intended to
do...do it! #DoTheThing
without fear of failure.
Failure is learning anyway.
#DoTheThing
15. A Thrive Hive is one of the most important ingredients to my secret sauce.
If you don't have a Thrive Hive
yet, get started & create one.
16. Mentorship Success
is watching your mentor-mentee relationship turn into SPONSORSHIP where both parties
ACTIVELY ADVOCATE for one another WITHOUT BEING ASKED & often when the other
person is not even present or aware.
