How To Find A New Way Of Being When Life Gets Disrupted with Claire Harbour (1 of 2) | Ep7 (Special Series Part 4‪)‬ Make It Work

    • Careers

In Claire Harbour’s own words, she “fits in everywhere and belongs nowhere”. Claire holds French and British passports but really is the quintessential global citizen, having lived in almost 20 countries and can speak 8 languages. Claire started her career in Asia, was once the General Manager for Louis Vuitton Moët Hennessy in the UK, and since entering coaching 20 years ago, she has now coached over 2000 people. All this whilst single-handedly raising four children (who are now well-adjusted adults!).

Amongst the many hats Claire wears, she is currently advisor to the Harvard Business Review,  has written a book and co-hosts a podcast both entitled “Disrupt Your Career”, a program interviewing those at the forefront of talent and career management. Claire is especially special to me because she was one of my first cheerleaders in starting this podcast! I cannot wait to share Claire’s unique wisdom and style in this podcast with you.

In our conversation, we chat about:

🌟The secret ingredient that helped her cope as a single working mother of four: her client relationships 

🌟What she learned from her children as they pursued unconventional paths

🌟Why asking for what you need is so important - and powerful

🌟Setting priorities so you can dump, delegate, delay

🌟Figuring out your values so you can be honest about what you want
