You’re delivering results, showing up, doing the work. But the way people describe you in a promotion committee or a hallway conversation may not match how you see yourself at all.

There’s risk in that gap. Someone could be deciding right now whether you’re ready for the next opportunity, based on an impression you may not even know you’re making.

And when people don’t have enough information about how you really operate, they fill in the gaps with assumptions, guesses, and stories that may have nothing to do with who you actually are.

In this live coaching session, May walks through how to uncover the gap between your self-perception and your reputation, so you can start closing it before it costs you an opportunity.

What you’ll discover:

  • Why “sugar-coated” feedback often hides the real message about how you’re seen
  • The 3-word exercise to surface the gap between your brand and your reputation
  • The difference between direct, indirect, and “black box” perception – and why the last one is the most dangerous
  • Why noticeable, consistent, and signposted change work together to reset how people see you
  • How a single pivotal moment can shift someone’s view of you for good

You’ll come away knowing how to uncover the gap between your self-perception and your reputation, and have a concrete first move to start closing it before it shapes decisions you’re not in the room for.
