Management Mums NOT wanted!
Are your 9am meetings telling parents they're not management material. For many parents it's difficult to make a regular 9am meeting and drop kids to school.
Give Women the Stretch Roles
Give Women the Stretch Roles
Management Mums NOT wanted!
Women might be run ragged but often part of that is not getting the 'good' roles and being left and the boring, mundane stuff. Women haven't lost their ambition, they're just tired of not getting the energising roles.

Hi I’m Fiona Kearns and I help top tier professionals to break through the glass domed ceiling and fully realise their potential.
You’re in the Crystal Maze. You’ve completed all the challenges and received all the Swarovski time crystal balls you need. You’re successful. You’ve earned your place in the dome.
This is your moment but when the fans get going all you seem to accumulate are silver tokens, no matter how much you grab and jump the gold ones are out of reach.
At the reckoning, you have a bag full of silver tokens and the few gold foil tokens you managed to grab are cancelled out by the silver. So near and yet so far.
I get it. I know what it’s like to believe you have nothing left to offer. I’ve been there when you just run out of steam and I don’t want anyone to feel the way I did. I don’t want you to lose confidence in your ability to advance without limits.
I want you to know you’re limitless.
That’s the word I want you to hold onto. Limitless.
You’ve had a glittering career. You’re successful, established and rightly proud of your achievements. Deservedly you’re well paid. You’re in the metaphorical dome and it’s within your grasp to fulfil your potential but self-doubt gets in the way. Why does it feel like you’re always one step away from where you want to be?
Trying to decide what’s missing is driving you nuts and stopping your productivity to boot. You don’t know it yet but you’re worth your salary as soon as you walk in the door. You feel like you’re missing a trick that your colleagues know but didn’t send you the memo.
It doesn’t help that your peers are ambitious, appear over confident and are in it for themselves rather than team players. That doesn’t fit your ethos at all and yet the higher management leave the day-to-day decision making to them. It’s baffling and it makes you feel you don’t belong there. After all, why did they hire you if they don’t want to take your input seriously? You shouldn’t have to shout to be heard. My proven steps to success will make you more visible while keeping your authenticity intact.
CEO CONFIDENT will take you from feeling your way to sailing every day of the year. No shouting required. Just a cool, calm and measured approach.
I’ve helped many professionals unlock their potential and elevate their position. Stay authentic and true to yourself. Personality transplant not required. You are enough just as you are. You are limitless. You deserve all the gold foil tokens and I’m going to help you get them.
BE YOU – BE CEO CONFIDENT
My proven authentic methods will influence the team around you to act with more integrity and a value driven approach that’ll turn your whole working environment around.
