Do you have ways to stand out from the crowd?
Many of Apifany’s clients are working feverishly to get their ideas heard. They’re also speaking up in meetings, communicating more effectively with their teams, and focusing on their next promotion. Essentially, they are busy, talented people trying to shape their worlds.
Unfortunately, they’re surrounded by many other busy, talented people doing the same. So, when I work with my coaching clients, we talk a lot about how to stand out. Some of my favorite strategies for standing out include (1) being crystal clear on your personal brand, (2) being able to communicate that brand in your proverbial elevator pitch, and (3) solving problems for others rather than looking at every situation as a way to solve one of your own problems.
There are many other strategies for standing out, and you’ll find some of those here in the Apifany blog.
I recently got re-acquainted with an incredible resource for helping you to distinguish yourself so that others pay attention to you. This resource is a short book from my friend Rajesh Setty titled 25 Ways to Distinguish Yourself. I promise you that aligning your thinking with Rajesh’s will create positive changes for you – just as it has for me.
And, if even one of the twenty-five strategies in Rajesh’s book resonates with you, your life will improve.
Here’s an overview of the book.
And, here is a place to download a pdf of the book.
I’m amazed at how the contents of this book, which was published in 2005, still offer valuable insights and strategies to put to use today. While technology and media landscapes have changed enormously in that time, Rajesh’s book offers timeless advice. Check it out.
