Inhaltsangabe

‘This is the practical book that shows you how to step out of the work shadows and into the spotlight you deserve’ ―Michael Bungay Stanier, author of The Coaching Habit

You know you’re good at your job. You hit your targets, solve problems and consistently go above and beyond. Yet somehow, when projects and promotions arise, you aren’t the one given the opportunity. In today’s workplace, good work no longer speaks for itself; you need to make your talent visible. Work Fame is the playbook for any professional who is ready to get the credit they deserve.

Being work famous means your reputation opens doors before you even knock. Workplace expert Leanne Hughes shares her three-spotlight framework and shows you how to diagnose exactly where you need to shine a light. Each short, practical chapter shares five-minute actions you can apply right away, as you build momentum and create measurable transformation in just 90 days.

Inside, you’ll discover how to:

• turn everyday work interactions into reputation-building moments
• talk more about your work and ideas (without the self-promotional cringe factor)
• use scripts and templates that you can personalise immediately
• build a network of advocates who mention your name when you’re not in the room
• create career insurance that protects you through restructures and leadership changes.

This book offers a smarter alternative to personal branding, one that will make you easier to remember and harder to overlook. Work Fame replaces ‘just work hard and hope for the best’ with a deliberate approach to being seen, trusted and chosen. Start making sure your work gets noticed. Get work famous.
