In today’s episode of the Legal Imposters Podcast I introduce you to the 30 Day Visibility Challenge – a challenge to get you out of your comfort zone and into the spotlight where people can see you, get to know you and keep you front of mind.

I know this is daunting. I know the thought of it makes you want to run and hide. I know if there was any way to avoid it and still get the promotion you’re looking for you would seize it with both hands! (Full disclosure: so would I!)

But there’s no escaping the truth my friend: if you want to progress your career as a black lawyer, people need to know who you are.

This is why being highly visible is step 4 of the 5 vital steps for progressing your career as a black lawyer that I teach you inside BE THE FIRST.

It’s the thing that gets you included and invited, it’s the thing that influences your work allocation, and it’s the number one thing that will get you the firm-wide or organisation-wide support you need to be admitted to the next level.

So why a 30-day Visibility Challenge?

The 30-day Visibility Challenge is what you do during Visibility month inside BE THE FIRST to motivate you, inspire you, support you and hold you accountable to increasing your visibility.

Because it’s so much easier to step out of your comfort zone when you know a) it’s for a limited period of time b) your peers are doing it at the same time (and are similarly uncomfortable) and c) you have a Coach who you trust walking you every step of the way.

So if you want to progress your career this year, join us!

You can do the challenge on your own (in the episode I tell you how), but if you’re a mid to senior level black lawyer and you want to progress your career this year you don’t have to go it alone. Join BE THE FIRST and let’s increase your visibility together.
