Слайд 1How to Land Your C-Level Job
How do CEOs, CFOs and other
C-Level leaders get new jobs?
Senior-level leaders don’t get hired through published job ads very often.
That’s not how most senior-level positions get filled.
Слайд 2So how does it work?
C-Level leaders are heads of corporate or
institutional functions like IT, HR, Finance, Marketing or Sales.
At the senior level in any organization, the personality and point of view of a prospective C-level leader are just as important as the job-seeker’s work experience (and maybe more so)!
The fit between the organization, its leadership team and the prospective C-level team member has to be right – otherwise no one will be happy!
Слайд 3If I’m not applying to posted job ads, what am I
doing instead?
C-level job seekers do these five things when they job hunt:
Слайд 41. They don’t apply to published job ads
They don’t respond to
posted job ads. That’s a terrible way for anyone to approach a company, and it’s an especially bad way for C-level leader to introduce him- or herself.
Слайд 52. They choose their next direction and brand themselves for it
Instead of answering job ads, C-level job-seekers decide what they want to do next, fairly specifically, and then brand themselves for the jobs they want (and not just any job)!
That way recruiters can easily find them.
Слайд 63. They consult during their job search
C-level job seekers are also
consultants. They carry a consulting business card.
That’s one of the principal ways they get hired! Consulting jobs turn into full-time jobs every day.
Consulting during your job search gives you more latitude, more and better ‘keyholes’ for conversation and more negotiating leverage!
Слайд 74. They network constantly
C-level job seekers network with old and new
contacts continuously.
They choose organizations to research and to follow and then they pay close attention.
They may end up knowing more about the organization than some of its own leaders do!
Слайд 85. They grow their thought leadership flame
C-level job-seekers grow their thought
leadership flame and raise their profile by blogging, speaking and sharing what they know.
Слайд 9What’s my thought leadership flame?
Your thought leadership flame is your unique
point of view. As a C-level leader, you know more than just the “how-tos” of your profession.
You have a personal spin on it – a set of beliefs about the way your function should be led.
You’ll share those beliefs in blog posts, articles, podcasts, webinars, videos and public presentations.
Every time you share your point of view with other people, your thought leadership flame grows!
