<strong>*</strong><em>This session is for the mentoring program (old and new) participants. However, anyone is welcome to attend if you are interested in the topic.</em><br><br><strong>Mentoring Matters!</strong><br>The purpose of the ACS Mentoring Program is to provide an opportunity for members to help members; to connect individuals with those seeking advice and guidance to develop their careers.<br><br>Effective communication is a critical interpersonal skill; on the other hand, self-awareness is the ability to focus on yourself and how your actions, thoughts, or emotions do or don&#39;t align with your internal standards.<br><br><strong>The Marketplace of Perception: </strong>Imagine yourself in a vast marketplace, selling not physical goods but your reputation, skills, and even personality. Every interaction, word, and action is like a product on display, constantly being evaluated by potential &quot;buyers&quot;—employers, colleagues, friends, or even strangers online.<br><br><strong>The Currency of Judgment: </strong>These &quot;buyers&quot; use various forms of &quot;currency&quot; to judge you. <ul><li><em><strong>Trust:</strong></em> Is your word reliable? Do you follow through on commitments?</li><li><em><strong>Competence:</strong></em> Do you have the skills and knowledge to succeed in your field?</li><li><em><strong>Likability:</strong></em> Are you pleasant to be around? Do you have good social skills?</li><li><em><strong>Potential:</strong></em> Do you show promise for growth and development?</li></ul> <strong>The Power of Perception:</strong> These judgments can have a significant impact on your life. They can influence whether you get a job, make new friends, or land a business deal.<br><br><strong>Not a One-sided Transaction: </strong>However, it&#39;s not a completely passive experience.  <br><br><strong>Beyond the Marketplace: </strong>It&#39;s important to remember that your value isn&#39;t solely defined by external judgment. <ul><li><em><strong>Focus on Intrinsic Worth: </strong></em>Develop your passions, talents, and a sense of self-worth independent of external validation.</li><li><em><strong>Building Genuine Connections:</strong></em> Seek relationships based on mutual respect and shared values, not just perceived &quot;marketability.&quot;</li></ul> The goal isn&#39;t to become a flawless product but to be a self-aware individual who can navigate the marketplace of perception while staying true to yourself.<br><br><strong>Additionally, consider these points: </strong>The Marketplace is Diverse. There is no single &quot;ideal product.&quot; Different &quot;buyers&quot; will value different qualities. <ul><li><em><strong>The Market Fluctuates:</strong></em> Standards and expectations can change over time. Stay adaptable and keep learning.</li><li><em><strong>Not Everyone is a Buyer:</strong></em> Focus on attracting the right kind of opportunities and connections, not mass appeal.</li></ul> By understanding the dynamics of being &quot;on sale,&quot; you can take control of your brand and navigate the world with confidence, authenticity, and purpose. <br><br><strong>Presenter:</strong> Channi Bhullar AACS, Strategic Technology Leader, Insite Pty Ltd, and Mentor at ACS Canberra <br><br><strong>Event run sheet</strong><br>5:30 PM – 5:50 PM (20 min): Arrival &amp; registration.
