Young professionals, with their ambition and up-for-it attitude, are such a rewarding audience for me and the Power of Personal. I’ve just delivered a webinar to 230 St. James’s Place Academists, the up-and-coming future partners, on using the Propella grid to identify Ambassadors and other key characters (popular Propella characters with this group are the Mirage, the Prize and the Smiley). I also shared my current top five power of personal techniques (cost = zero, impact = huge) to introduce into their business development. With thanks to Andrew Ward for being my internal Ambassador and to SJP Associate Partner Natalie Parnell DipPFSParnell for sharing her ‘ah-ha’ moments while reading the book in one sitting on a flight back from Australia. Natalie’s story about her newly discovered ‘off-grid’ Ambassador was a first for me and has now gone into my story bank! Thanks also toQuentin Crowe FCIM, MA and Declan Lamyman, Dip PFS for introducing so warmly me to SJP.
