“I am not a life coach. I’m an outcome-based business coach with 35 years of experience. My clients often double their incomes in three years or less.” – Colle Davis
The closer to the top of the power structure you are, the less support you receive. Help can be hard to find and even dangerous to ask for within an organization. HR is not your friend; they can leak confidential information, and they are not vested in your success. Your eventual triumph depends on your ability to leverage your assets, become a force, and make your bosses look good.
Here are the top challenges for leaders:
Inspiring your reports to increase their enthusiasm, productivity, and value.
Building your bench strength and encouraging your reports to build theirs.
Interpreting signals with accuracy and responding positively.
Creating opportunities for moving up within the organization.
Preparing for the possibility of being recruited by a different division or organization
Negotiating a raise. Negotiating an exit package. Negotiating a hiring package.

Interview Skills and Tricks – by Coach Colle Davis
The person who interviews you for a prospective job may have been through their typical interview process hundreds of times while you may have a couple of dozen interviews in your entire working career. The interviewer is far better prepared and holds all the cards, but wait, they are still human, and they can be influenced and yes, manipulated.
Coach’s Note: If the wordmanipulateholds a negative connotation for you, let me explain the importance of understanding it’s use during a job interview and hopefully, you’ll see the logic in my premise.
Please be aware, we are all manipulated by media and advertising every day, and we spend our lives manipulating others in order to coerce or sell them on your point of view. Manipulation (blatant or subtle) is natural tendency we all use on some level to get our outcomes.
The word manipulate is not a dirty word. Instead, the word describes the process for presenting an argument or point-of-view so you can get what you want from an interaction.
