Building Better Managers New Level Work

Have you ever felt stuck in your career, unsure whether to seek a new job or embark on an entirely different path? The latest episode of Building Better Managers is a treasure trove of wisdom for anyone standing at this crossroads.

Alisia Gill, the founder and CEO of Navista, joins host Wendy Hanson to discuss a topic that resonates with many: career navigation. With over 15 years of experience guiding professionals, Alisia dismantles the traditional notion of climbing the career ladder and introduces us to the climbing wall model – a more dynamic approach to professional growth.

Alisia emphasizes the importance of self-awareness and understanding one's values, goals, and priorities. She urges listeners to consider not just the job title they desire, but the kind of work that genuinely excites them. It's about identifying your 'personal North Star' – a unique combination of your strengths, interests, and values that guides your career decisions.

Meet Alisia:
Alisia Gill is the Founder & CEO of Navista, where she is dedicated to empowering professionals to make decisions about their careers with authenticity and confidence. Alisia is a former Chief People Officer with over 15 years of experience as a human capital leader in Fortune 100 and Inc5000 firms, as well as the New York City government. She now happily wears multiple hats – as an executive coach, speaker, and business advisor. She holds a master's degree from Princeton University and an undergraduate degree from Columbia University.
