Are you telling yourself a limiting or empowering career story?
What is your career story? When professionals come to me for career coaching, I ask them to tell me their career stories thus far in their own words. I ask them to be brief and only to let me know what got them to this point in their careers and how they see where their career stands at that moment.

B2B startups' lack of buyer empathy can hinder their growth: but it’s not that hard to find
B2B startups are facing a stark reality, as competition increases and funding decreases, the traditional blend of technical and business jargon to promote the latest AI solution isn't cutting it anymore. Nearly half of the metrics that investors consider before investing are customer-centric, placing marketing and sales under the microscope first. On top of that, an overwhelming 60%+ of all raised investment often gets funnelled into marketing support – a huge gamble if it fails to hit the mark.

But too often, the true scale and diversity of “climate tech” is overlooked and underestimated.
