episode 94: 94. Comparison of Bragging vs Visibility
94. Comparison of Bragging vs Visibility
Today’s show is about the differences between bragging vs visibility. Bragging is defined as a pompous or boastful statement, arrogant talk or manner by someone. Bragging in the workplace often involves an inflated sense of self-importance and a desire to diminish the contributions of others. Authentic visibility, however, celebrates achievements while acknowledging the contributions of colleagues and expressing gratitude for opportunities and support. Being authentic and sharing information is easier than you think and would never be seen as bragging.
In this episode:
- How are bragging and visibility different by definition.
- Bragging isn’t the only way to get visibility for yourself and your team.
- Sharing what you do in a way that works for your style.
- The importance of having a plan of what you will share with others.
- How I thought about creating visibility to market The Visibility Factor book.
- Examples of how to say things in an authentic visible way vs a bragging way.
- Using the POSE formula to prepare your story to share with others.
