Business
Today we welcome Andrea Clough. If you want to be successful at what you do, you have to go to the edge of what you know. You have to find that space. Successful people discovered that you need another human’s help to get there. Yet, not everybody can help you. Andrea can. She lives in that space every day and she can guide you there. Andrea believes that taking your life & career to the next level is like climbing a mountain. In order to see the amazing view from the peak you have to plan, train, collect your gear and work with a guide. You cannot do it only relying on yourself. Andrea is the Engineer Whisperer. She transforms good Engineers into GREAT Engineers. She is the killer combo for translating their strong technical skills into powerful business & people skills. She creates a simple and tailored roadmap for each of her clients based on their needs and goals. Such a roadmap could include a vision of which mountain to climb, a plan that breaks down the details on how to climb, a list of skill sets for successful climbers, an inventory of physical and mental strengths, and an energy source for when you want to give up. Andrea will turn your confidence up, will find your secret strengths and she will discover your superpower. She is fearless and bold in her work and believes that you can only get to the next level when you have somebody who believes in you – 100%. And she believes in her clients 100%. Andrea has 10 years of well-respected corporate expertise and experience in Finance, HR, Project Mgmt, Strategic Integration, Bus Ops, Marketing and Procurement. She is a Certified Professional Coach and accredited by the International Coaching Federation (ICF). She was born in Europe, speaks four languages, and has travelled around the world. Her perspective on life, laughter and work will pull you in like a good box of chocolate. This conversation traverses the world of our personal stories and journey and how the landscape of that creates pockets for us to dig in to learn and grow and evolve. Andrea leads us on this journey by deciding to be courageous and we discuss... - Choosing to be brave is the action of courage - Smile when crying is expected means giving the unexpected! - It takes strength to love but courage to be loved - Courage feels different. Like you’re doing something unexpected, not fitting in, against the grain - Wherever I go, I am home. Because home lives within me. - Knowing of the self requires removal of layers of false-ness - Being gifted my purpose by other people is how I arrived at this work - If you seek something, give it. - My inspiration, my motivation, comes from the ripple impact of why -how – what I do. - Everyone is whole and capable and resourceful. Nothing is broken or wrong with you. - It’s not about you CAN. It’s about you ARE. - Ask for help – use the people around you – find just one person. - Visualize the ladder between your heart and brain.
