Wine Down with Philly Tech Sistas: New Normal = New Goals

This month's wine down we’ll be joined by Keita Williams of Success Bully, an elite accountability practice dedicated to supporting high performing “Type A”s who are looking to take their great to GREATER.

COVID-19 has created global disruption unlike anything we have seen in our lifetimes. The way we live, work and connect has been thrust into a new normal of virtual interactions and we have no idea if it will return to its former self. At this historic moment, the individuals that move with expedience to think creatively, adapt and execute will be the standouts.

Learn about Success Bully's coaching methodology called, “Your 90-Day Way,” to help hone focus, create larger impact and achieve measurable results across both personal and professional lives.

What you'll learn:

Create your refined SMART Goal and 90-Day Action plan using the 3 “S” s

• S.W.O.T to S.M.A.R.T. Goals

• Simple planning + tracking

• Structured Accountability & Communication

About Philly Tech Sistas

Philly Tech Sistas' goal is to diversify the tech industry by empowering women of color with the skills and leadership tools needed to work and thrive in Philadelphia’s rich tech community. We do this by providing web development workshops and professional development events that build leadership, confidence, and community. Our vision is to partner with tech companies throughout the Philadelphia area to help bridge the diversity, equity and inclusion gap within the technology field.

We are at that time of year where we begin to evaluate our personal and professional goals. Performance reviews often produce a roller coaster of emotions; excitement if you are on a promotion track, and possible dread if you are unclear on where you stand. At review time, you receive lots of feedback on WHAT needs to be accomplished by the next cycle. The part that is missing is HOW you will accomplish the goals. Hosted by our collaborator Success Bully, this event will provide tips and tricks for successfully navigating your next performance review.

Food will be provided.

Performance reviews often produce a rollercoaster of emotions for everyone involved HR, Managers, Directors, and Direct Reports. Since the review process varies from organization to organization, there isn’t a one-size fits all approach that will guarantee success.

At review time, everyone receives lots of feedback on WHAT needs to be accomplished by the next cycle.  The part that is missing is HOW to accomplish the goals; this is often left as a nebulous process to figure out by oneself.

This interactive Train the Trainer Goal Setting workshop is designed to help empower attendees to teach their team how to create clarity and action plans over a 90-day period.

Since the review process varies from organization to organization, there isn’t a one-size-fits-all approach that will guarantee a seamless experience.  In this 90-minute training, we will provide a different approach that gives YOU, as an individual contributor, the tools to take personal ownership of your goals and success.

Excited to partner with Society of Women Engineers! A new year means new goals and new chances to be a better you personally and professionally. Success Bully and SWE wants to help you be as successful in these new goals as possible. 

Hack the Performance Review Tips & Tricks - Feb 25th
At review time, you receive lots of feedback on WHAT needs to be accomplished by the next cycle. The part that is missing is HOW you will accomplish the goals; this is often left as a nebulous process to figure out on your own. In this 90-minute interactive presentation, we share our tips and best practices to set, track and communicate your progress to your manager and your team to avoid the performance review scramble.

If you are in Savannah, GA, join us for a fun evening!

A Workshop Designed About You—For You.

 In the relentless pace of the day-to-day, and the many hats we wear in life, it is easy to lose sight of the bigger picture of our lives and what we really want. So much of our day-to-day is guided by what other people need or expect from us. This workshop is about envisioning what you want in 2020 and beyond (both personally and professionally) – and building the mindset, community, and actions to get there.

In this workshop, you will focus on…

• Aiming High & Dreaming Big 

• Using your Core values as your guide 

• Uncovering your Passion and Purpose (in the current phase of your life)

• Crystalizing your Vision for yourself

• Having a Plan & Holding yourself Accountable

• Identifying & Breaking Through the barriers that hold you back.

• Building connections with people who can support you along the way (if that’s your jam!)

• And, ultimately…becoming a master manifester!

Now that the “New Year. New Me,” glitter has worn off, are you having a hard time keeping your New Year’s Resolutions? The first few days were filled with such promise, but it is back to old habits and business as usual. Or worse, you make yourself the promise to get back on it next Monday and that Monday never comes.

If this sounds remotely like you, I want to congratulate you on being completely and delightfully human. If you have wobbled, bobbled or fell off completely, you are not alone. It takes time to build a habit.

Modern notions suggest that it takes 21 days to create a new habit. Science has proven that it takes 33 to 66 days to develop a new habit and roughly 90 days before seeing marked results of those changes. According to the American Society of Training and Development (ASTD), there is 65% goal completion if you commit to someone. If there are specific accountability appointments, goal accomplishment goes up to 95%. Success Bully merges this powerful combination of strategic goal setting and accountability for real action. 

We often have big hairy audacious goals, but no roadmap of logical next steps to get there.  In other cases, we are scared by the sheer size of the goal and fail to even get started. Success Bully has a simple solution to break goals down into snackable steps.

This interactive goal setting webinar is designed to help create clarity and an action plan over the next 90 days. We help map out a realistic plan to develop habits that set your team up for a strong rest of the year.

The Goal Setting Exercise: Our goal setting exercise technique is not homework to be printed and thrown away or never completed.  It is an exercise that is facilitated and completed in real-time.  In this 60-minute webinar, we cover the 3 “S”s:

• S.M.A.R.T. Goals

• Simple planning + tracking

• Structured Accountability & Communication

This training is for you because...

·       You have ambitious goals for 2020 and need a strategy to get them done.

·       Every new year you start out strong and fizzle out by early February if not before.

·       You are tired of talking about your big dreams and now you are ready to get into action.

·       You want to achieve your goals, so you can live the life you deserve.

I am excited to start 2020 with a clear vision and purpose. ! Last year was filled with new opportunities, personal growth and totally crushing my big hairy audacious goal with some challenges sprinkled in there to keep it interesting.

If you find yourself stuck year after year in the same place, or you have that brilliant idea that you have not launched, I want to help you get out of your own way to get crystal-clear about your goals, create your own roadmap and help hold you accountable, so you have the momentum to make this the year you deserve!

Join me on Sunday, January 5th at 5 pm PST for the first of my series of GO BIG goal setting webinars to help you jumpstart your new decade. 

Can you believe we are weeks away from a New Year? Correction… We are less than a month away from a new decade. Rather than fall off by mid-February, let’s remember it takes 33 to 66 days to develop a new habit and roughly 90 days before seeing marked results of those changes. With that concept in mind, how we invest our time in the first few weeks of the New Year will set us all up for a strong 2020.

I am excited to wrap up 2019! This year was filled with new opportunities, personal growth and totally crushing my big hairy audacious goal with some challenges sprinkled in there to keep it interesting.

With the start of this new decade, I spent a weekend recapping 2019, organizing to optimize for 2020 and mapping out my own goals and benchmarks for Q1. I feel empowered and grateful to take what I learned this year to level up in the next year.
