The Three Secret Keys to Success

Whether you are looking to climb the corporate ladder, get a Board or committee position, or stand out in an overcrowded market, there are three keys to success.

These three secret keys are the ones we have used to create our own success stories AND to help women to break through glass ceilings and achieve more than they imagined was possible.

$30,000 payrise

Board positions

Six figure client contracts

Promotions

Those are the tangible markers of our clients' successes, but what really matters is they are finally:

fulfilled, empowered, recognised, respected, confident.

They have become Women of Substance

 

The Three Secret Keys

Value

In our own experience, and through coaching and mentoring other successful women, we have found that one of the things women don't do well is to articulate their VALUE. We hold back, not putting ourselves forward for opportunities until we feel 110% qualified. When asked to describe our leadership style in interviews or for applications, we often struggle. You are not alone. Using Ros' science based Women's Leader Archetypes model and assessment, you will discover the true articulation of your value as a powerful female leader.

Visibility

It is sadly not enough to let your work speak for itself. To be a successful female leader in a man's world, to be seen and noticed, to be in the running for the big opportunities, you need VISIBILITY and influence. You need to be front of mind when those jobs and board positions become vacant, or when that business opportunity comes around. The only way to be the one that everyone thinks of, is to have a strategic profile, and be highly influential.

Connections

We are calling it! Traditional networking is dead! Gone are the days when you could show up to drinks occasionally, drop a few business cards, and then sit back and wait for the phone to ring. Business success in the modern world needs real and genuine CONNECTIONS. Its ironic that we are more connected than ever, but it is becoming more and more superficial. As the world becomes overwhelmed with the quantity of connections, quality is now the real key.

Women of Substance - Emerge

The Women of Substance - Emerge program is for ambitious women who "want what she's having". Over 8 weeks online, and a "Success Summit" we will work together as a group of committed women leaders to create the influence participants want and DESERVE.

Vicki's Story

Vicki is one of Ros' long term coaching clients. Over the time we have worked together, we have focussed on honing these 3 secret keys to success. Vicki was actually the very first client to take the Women's Leader Archetypes Assessment and she said "this is the first time I have had the words to perfectly describe who I am as a leader, and the value I add to the business". With my support, Vicki built her visibility fast, with opinion pieces in the local papers, articles and radio. Her network mapping was the basis for her creating new connections, and this led to Vicki achieving not only a high profile, but finally the committee appointments she was seeking. And she got a new job too! 

Hereā€™s whatā€™s included in Women of Substance - Emerge

Alison Haertel's Emerge Story

Alison is the powerhouse founder of Pheonix2Warrior. Alison gives her perpective of Emerge.

 

"It has been a very enriching journey of self-reflection, personal and professional growth. I have had the opportunity to listen and talk to some very incredible women throughout this program and have had many take-away/light bulb moments which will support my growth and development. This course has supported me to step back and look at the bigger picture and Iā€™m excited at the possibilities. I simply just want to say thank you I have truly valued this experience. "

Anita Leighton
Service Area Manager, Baptcare

"The Emerge Program gave me a boost in confidence when I needed it most. To make bold decisions, to trust in my judgement and to question and assess my natural management styles and how it could shape my personal brand. There was great vulnerability in the group as we got to know each other better, ask questions of ourselves and share parts of us that weā€™d like to improve. The group gave me a real sense of camaraderie when I felt quite isolated as a manager within my own organisation. The friendships created and the guidance received will stay with me for a very long time. A great program for those who are just starting out in professional roles, or those who are experienced and would like to re-connect with themselves and what drives and motivates them to succeed. Thank you Susan and Ros!"

Verity Davis
Social Enterprise Manager, Hobart City Mission

"A brilliant program...emergence is exactly the outcome I've experienced. Congratulations on a fantastic offering and being part of it has changed my world."

Jess Tyler

"Iā€™ve met Ros previously, and looked at engaging her for some coaching, which was also one of the reasons I enrolled in Emerge, because I thought it enabled me to get that coaching, but in a group environment, but then also I know Susanā€™s background and I thought that would be a good addition to it. The quality and the content and the two skillsets really complemented and brought different aspects to it. Rosā€™s coaching experience really came through, and Susanā€™s work and life experiences were there as well ā€“ it created balance I think. We had COVID, a new job, I moved houseā€¦ it made me focus on me at a time where it would have been easy not to. I think it did give me back some confidence within me, from a personal and a work perspective. It also made me assess my prioritiesā€¦ I just thought, at the moment I just need to stay on a certain course and on that track and see it through. And the other things are actually distractions at the moment. So there was lots of that, where it kept pulling me back to where I am right now and sticking with it. I thought that bringing in the different personalities and experiences of the guest speakers made it a much more dynamic experience, and made it feel more connected. I would recommend the program, yes! This is for people who are midway through their career - management roles or higher. Getting that confidence and connections around ā€˜Where to from here?ā€™ ā€“ transitioning into the next step of your career. I went in with no expectations and came out having thoroughly enjoyed it. There was a lot in it. "
