92. Performance Reviews: Communicating value delivered to go further faster - feat. Warren James
Do you find it challenging to communicate the value that you delivered when it comes to performance review time or when negotiating your salary? In today’s episode, I invited Warren James - former engineer and project manager, turned coach and mentor will share his tips on how to prepare for performance conversations, how to articulate the value you bring to an organisation when negotiating your salary, and the compounding effect salary negotiations can have over time. Warren wrote Further Faster – The Ultimate Guide To Accelerating Your Career for young professionals to encourage them to work smarter, not harder. He is passionate about showing them how, with a little effort and forethought, they can achieve more than they ever dreamed possible. Warren’s own career success in engineering and project management saw him ascend the corporate ladder and put himself in a position where retirement was an option at age 35. A career highlight was delivering $50+M worth of work under budget, ahead of schedule, without any recordable injuries while managing a team in excess of 150 people. As a project manager, Warren discovered that he thoroughly enjoyed helping people reach their full potential. He also experienced the burnout that can come from the stress, long hours and immense pressure, needing four months off work to recharge at one point in his career. Now, as a leader, mentor and director of Rapid Mentoring, what sets Warren apart is his unique approach that balances life skills and resilience, coupled with a focus on performance and career acceleration.
