I also worked tech support. I will absolutly judge if you yell at me before I have even opened my mouth. And I reserve the right to not think highly of your IT skills if you need handholding through writing in a new password.

Good vid!

This is so useful--thanks for the video and for sharing your amazing template! I've duplicated and can't wait to start using it. Grateful for all your thoughtful content, Elena. 🙏

This is a really helpful guide. Do you share your notes with your team members? Or are your notes from the 1:1 and check-ins just for the manager's reference?

Excellent content. You deserve a lot more subscribers. Looking forward to many more content around life management tool kits for mitigating corporate world anxiety..

You did a good job in summarizing the whole MBA experience.

Hi Elena, the link to your web doesn't work. Do you use Jira in your projects? Can you make a film about how to use Jira and provide some example?

That was more fun than I thought - what should I try next?

Thanks Lena! Good research, explanation and personal learnings. Very useful and relevant

This is absolutely amazing and deadly accurate! Thank you

Hi, this is so helpful and I can't wait to start using it! I have one question though - the retros section seems to be gone from the template. Do you plan on re-adding it? Thank you!

I've seen many videos about Notion and this one of the best.

I love all : the way you are talking is so calming yet engaging, the way you are explaing is making so much sense, the video idea is so interesting and real and so much more thank you 🙏

Wow I love this video so much , i’m surprised it doesn’t get more attention! Thank you for making this it’s really helpful and reassuring as a person who’s new to networking events :)

Ahh thank you to youtube for recommending this to me! I have always hated networking, more so because of social anxiety than introversion, but I really need to get comfortable with it as I look at doing more freelance work and social media promotions. It feels like people that like and understand networking have this way of getting places and connections that I have just never understood or had come naturally to me. Thanks for making this video, will definitely be checking out your channel!

I felt crippling anxiety watching this video

I very much trained my social muscle but big groups are still very hard. I "ended up" back in academia but there was one year between my postdoc and my first faculty position where I considered going into industry (I did physics and computational neuroscience) and was told that only networking really works because many positions are filled like that. I went to two events and luckily had a person I knew who became my sort of guide to the first one. But it was still very hard. I was 29 at that point and had never done professional events outside of academia. And I even struggle in academic settings outside of the actual talks and scientific interactions. I got a data science consulting job fairly quickly so I gave up on networking events and now, in my mid-30s, I feel I bit sad that I never put a bit more work into it because even if it's uncomfortable, I feel like it might have been an interesting experience.

Elena, thank you - i feel like you made this video for a fellow introvert like me, right at the perfect time when i need it (i'm trying to build my own consultancy) ....you are a thoughtful, intelligent, courageous, interesting and self-aware person (with superb English language skills!) ....i'm sure people at networking events would welcome the introduction!

Do you do networking? Did it ever bring anything good in your professional life?

I love this video, cause it is my pain and weakness - I don’t know how to network and where’s this line between networking and sticking to people and annoy them 😂😂😂😂😂

Jajaja i love that you use anime chatacters names as an examples 😅

I have a boss that is primarily red-flag 1 type,

How do you find a workplace where you don't get sexually harassed?

My work Owner was exactly as you described cut hours down where we had to work solo 3hours everyday in a busy shop and still expecting the work to still be completed to a high standard he was constantly asking for stock takes/re takes daily, stock ordering to be be done on time the deliveries to worked the shop to be fully filled/ tidy and even the shop to be cleaned. If you ever object to doing it on time he would tell you it’s not that difficult and to stop moaning about it just just get on with it and if it’s not done you should look for another job also he doesn’t need to reward or thank you as he’s paying you to do your job. He’s only thanks you once you’ve done what is asked but if you ever go question it or refuse to do something he turns toxic and unprofessional. I told him to stick the job last week and feel like a big weight has been lifted I’d rather be unemployed than be treated like that and I don’t miss the stress burnout it was causing me both mentally and physically.

Thank you.

I resonated so much with you said! Every.single.word-except for the sustainability- I truly believe that it’s not greenwashing and that it has real tangible impacts and the right way to move forward in business! I believe that wholeheartedly. Amazing video! ❤

Hi! Thank you for the video! I have a question - you've mentioned that saying "we are the family" is a red flag. Why is that?

some of these are so triggering lol

What was the worst thing you've heard from your manager?

Excellent

Thank you QUEEEN! So helpful !

Beautiful thoughts, having someone acknowledge the behavior is not OK is validating. Of course coworkers have already been narrowed down to people that can live with the problems.

Hi , why do I think it's too late yo shift career at 30s?

it look like you are saying my story right now .Your words are so true.I decide to quite from the current recently.

If you have a bad manager don't even waste another minute in that job. Quit the job. Guaranteed you will find a better job. It's like the Universe wants you to identify when you are being mistreated and take steps to get out of dysfunctional situations. It works for me. Every time. If I discover the manager is bad or narcissistic, I quit without notice.

Great video! My boss somehow cycles through all 3 of these! Not sure how they all go together but it’s happening. I handed my resignation in this morning 😂

Love your channel! Thank you so much for the content. The way I deal with it and use it to feel comfortable asking for things from my team is to have the mindset that I don't ask for things that I would not ask from myself. Usually following this approach I can get the effort I need to get out of my team without feeling guilty.

your thumbnail is awesome. you have an eye for it, made me really wanna click

Just subscribed 🎉

How about you? How happy are you with your summer? ☺️

You seem interesting

Have you ever had a calm manager? How was it?

your video is so comforting! Especially your mentions about "preparedness" and self-motivation!

Golden nuggets. Some deep aspects which we don’t find in other videos. Thank you Elena.

Introverts, what work advice you wish you'd learn sooner?

Excellent information!! I really appreciate it. There are so many tips and pointers in this that apply. But my favorite is how an introvert such as myself should evaluate the job offer or promotion.

Thanks for this video and for the template, I’m about to become a manager and this will help me a looooot ❤

What is the best advice / lesson you've ever received about managing others?

I love how practical you are. Thanks for the template
