How to beat the inner critic and harness your inner mentor
Our sense of self-esteem and confidence can often hold us back when applying for a new job. We may doubt our skills and abilities and believe that we have to tick all ten things on the job description to an Olympic gold standard before we can consider ourselves worthy of an application. Based on the work of Tara Mohr in her book Playing Big, Liz will explore how we dial down our inner critics and dial up our inner mentors.
With an extensive HR background, Liz has a passion for the health and wellbeing of HR professionals. “The human issues we deal with on a daily basis would require supervision in any other helping profession such as counselling and therapy. “Who HRs the HR is a burning question for me”, reveals Liz.
