When Anthony started his career in recruitment 15 years ago he was the lowest performer at his agency.

→ He did the coffee chats thing

→ He tried all the cold calls

→ He was consistent in the follow-up

But he was still at the bottom in his team. Over the next 5 years he:

→ Fessed up to being the "dumbest" in the room

→ Took advice from mentors

→ Discovered his big why and passion

(Hint: You can steal his approach to grow your career too!)

Things started to improve. He changed industries and began to look for ways to serve the industry. He grew his network and visibility while remaining humble.

He then built the 3 key pillars I recommend to make the shift to leader:

1) Grow your confidence

2) Improve your competence

3) Increase your credibility

Check out this episode for a great conversation with Anthony Nguyen, Aged Care Recruitment Manager and Host of the Podcast "Leaders in Aged Care" series and how after what he calls a slow start (I say normal) he then built on these 3 pillars to create an enviable career where other leaders seek him out!

What can you apply in your career?
