Scaling Your Business: The Key Considerations and the Importance of Purpose-Driven Growth, an article written by our Founder Kylie van Luyn for Women Thrive Media's May issue. As a female entrepreneur, scaling your business can be exciting yet daunting. The prospect of expanding your operations, reaching new markets, and increasing your revenue can be incredibly enticing. However, scaling requires careful planning, strategic thinking, and a steadfast commitment to your mission and values. Kylie expanded Elevated Coaching & Consulting Global from Australia to the USA in July 2022 and has learned so much about identifying gaps in the global market, scaling internationally, building partnerships and a business ecosystem of trusted advisors, maintaining brand integrity and operating across global time zones. In this article, Kylie explores the key considerations when scaling your business and why it is crucial to remain purpose-driven throughout the process. Remember, people don’t buy what you do, they buy why you do it! #WomenInBusiness #Entrepreneurship #PurposeDriven #BrandIntegrity #Expansion #Partnerships

As a job seeker, your mindset can be your greatest ally or your most formidable adversary. Adopting a growth mindset can be a transformative tool in your job search journey. Positive psychology emphasizes the nurturing of talent & making everyday life more fulfilling. In the context of job hunting, applying positive psychology means focusing on your strengths, maintaining a positive outlook, & persisting even in the face of numerous rejections. Positive psychology and a growth mindset both advocate for resilience, optimism, & perseverance. They both encourage individuals to view difficulties not as obstacles but as stepping stones towards success. When you embrace a growth mindset, you focus on the process rather than the outcome. You don't see a job rejection as a failure but as an opportunity to learn, grow, & improve. How a Positive Growth Mindset Helps When Seeking Employment * Enhances resilience: A growth mindset helps you bounce back from setbacks. Instead of wallowing in disappointment, you view each rejection as a chance to learn & improve, making you more resilient. * Boosts confidence: A positive mindset can significantly boost your confidence by focusing on your strengths & potential for growth. * Encourages continuous learning: With a growth mindset, you're always open to new ideas & experiences, which can help you acquire new skills & increase your employability. * Promotes healthier stress management: A growth mindset encourages healthier coping strategies, reducing job-hunting-related stress and promoting overall well-being. Remember that the road to success is always under construction in your job-hunting journey. Embrace the detours, learn from them, & keep going. Unlock your mind, unlock your potential! Our Elevated Mindset® program specializes in supporting people experiencing unemployment to overcome limiting beliefs, develop confidence, feel empowered, reframe their thinking & adopt a growth mindset to support goal achievement & success.

I am looking forward to presenting for the Veritux community of independent female consultants today on "Integrating Yourself In A Team As An Independent Consultant." As I was preparing this morning I reflected on my years of consulting and the importance of combining emotional intelligence and organizational awareness for maximum consulting impact and success. The most basic and powerful way to connect to another person is to listen.  JUST LISTEN.  Perhaps the most important thing we ever give each other is our time & attention. Organizational awareness is having the ability to read a group's emotional currents and power relationships and identify influencers, networks, and dynamics within the organization. As a consultant, it is crucial to your effectiveness and credibility to develop a deep understanding of the workplace dynamics, norms, structure, and culture to successfully connect across an organization. For years, I have believed that the soft skill piece of organizational awareness is a key to success and can be the root cause of many issues. Most importantly, it is a coachable skill. There are different spins and contexts to this competency, but all have one thing in common and that is that strong emotional intelligence and organizational awareness skills have a positive impact on individual performance, company objectives, client outcomes and customer service.  Every function, position and individual within the company plays an important role in contributing to the results of the company. People who perform consistently excellently typically have a well-developed sense of organizational awareness. As a consultant, your focus is on learning to Do it Right, Do it Efficiently, and Do it Excellently. There are two elements to organizational awareness:  1. External: Understanding of how the organization interacts and presents itself to the outside world. Individuals with a keen understanding of organizational awareness regarding the external world around the organization can represent the company well, prioritize, and serve the customers using this sense and understanding. 2. Internal: Understanding of both formal and informal processes of the company, the culture, and how roles and responsibilities impact others and company outcomes.  Understanding how an organization functions and the workplace dynamics requires emotional intelligence, reading between the lines and picking up on unspoken norms and cues, which helps consultants navigate the workplace culture more effectively. #OrganizationalAwareness #EmotionalIntelligence #Consulting #TeamDynamics #Leadership #WorkplaceCulture

The Workplace Psychological Safety Act (WPSA) in Rhode Island recently passed a Senate floor vote, and the House Labor Committee heard our testimony in a public hearing but held the bill for further study so they can read through the testimonies before taking a vote to decide whether to move the legislation forward to a House floor vote. Elevated Coaching & Consulting Global are deeply committed to this cause and is working closely with End Workplace Abuse to build awareness and have the Workplace Psychological Safety Act passed. Rhode Island is positioned to become the first state in the country to pass workplace anti-abuse legislation as was touted in a Boston Globe article about the Rhode Island legislation. Public outcry is growing, which is critical to collective movement. But we have less than two months left in the RI legislative session to make our case to the House Labor Committee, whose members heard opposition from powerful corporate interest groups. We need an outpouring of support by May 31 to put protections from psychological abuse at work on the Governor's desk. Every voice counts. Let’s not let this opportunity slip through our hands. Let’s get a win in Rhode Island and leverage that win to pass protections in other states — because we ALL deserve safer workplaces. Take action TODAY: Submit your own written testimony in support of H8044. It will be publicly posted on the RI State House website: https://lnkd.in/e24euPnq If you’re concerned about anonymity, email your testimony directly to the committee chair at rep-corvese@rilegislature.gov. Many thanks for speaking up. Every voice counts. #PsychologicalSafety #PsychologicalAbuse #MentalHealth #WorkerRights #WorkplaceFairness

We are delighted to be featured in this month's IssueWire magazine. Elevated Coaching & Consulting Global is a change-management company addressing workplace psychological abuse and harm. We specialize in developing inclusive workplaces and trauma-informed leaders to ensure maximum DEI engagement at micro, macro, and company levels. We are proud to have successfully positioned ourselves as an inclusive problem-solving expert while coaching leaders to enhance emotional intelligence skills to foster safer workplaces. Our Founder Kylie van Luyn recently sat down with IssueWire to discuss why she started the firm, our mission to empower organizations to cultivate healthy and safe work environments and our global expansion to achieve this goal. All people - regardless of their gender, race, disabilities, sexual orientation, gender, identity, age, income, faith, religion, and political affiliations – deserve to lead healthy and productive lives and to work in psychologically safe environments free from abuse and oppression. Governments regulate the environmental health of the workplace, but who’s making sure the U.S. workplace is psychologically safe? People shouldn’t have to quit their jobs to stop tolerating abuse at work of any kind. We accept nothing less than basic respect at work. We won’t stop until we eliminate psychologically abusive behaviors from workplaces. We strive to protect and promote workers’ right to psychological wellness, critical to physical health, by advocating for the elimination of such abusive behaviors from the workplace. We lobby for protective legislation and policies, raise public awareness about psychological harm at work, build leaders who campaign for abuse-free workplaces, and collaborate with other organizations advancing workers’ rights. Because bias and prejudice are often an integral part of workplace abuse, we advocate for protections against discrimination.
