What’s Blocking Your Potential?
If you’ve ever worked in an organization of any size, you’ve probably seen it: the talented geniuses with all the right credentials who don’t really seem to be going anywhere in their chosen careers. Sometimes that “talented genius” is us, and we are hard-pressed to understand what’s blocking our ability to advance.
In her powerful book, You — According to Them, Sara Canaday draws on her years of corporate experience and research to not only explain WHY smart people can end up with stalled careers, but also HOW they can fix the problems (or avoid them in the future). The timing for this insight couldn’t be better, given today’s increasingly competitive work environment.
About Sara Canaday
Speaker, Consultant, and Author
Sara Canaday is a recognized expert in leadership development with bottom-line impact, helping companies’ leaders and high potentials integrate the leadership skills that research proves are critical for corporations to succeed. Her corporate clients include Allstate, Johnson & Johnson, Charles Schwab, Edward Jones, Dell, Lockheed Martin, Starbucks, and more.
Her insights come from her real-world experience and a surprising phenomenon she noticed in her own rise up the corporate ladder: The most successful people aren’t necessarily the ones with the highest IQs or best job skills. Career advancement is actually more closely linked with how people apply their knowledge and talents—their capacity to collaborate, communicate, and influence others.
As a keynote speaker, award-winning author, and executive coach, Sara propels individuals from light bulb-moment insights to strategic change, helping them identify barriers that prevent them from taking their careers―and their companies―to the next level.
