The World of Work Project
The PVI model states that three factors that will help you being successful in the workplace are:
How you are perceived
How visible you are
Your ability to influence others
This model states you need to control the way you want others to perceive you. This way you will be perceived in a appreciative way.
Personal branding also argues this and both of them are influenced by marketing and public relations.
Understanding the current state of your own perspective
Validate the current state through external feedback
Define your future state
Move from your previous state of perspective to your new one
VISIBILITY
Visibility is about increasing how others are aware of you. We are able to do that with the help of two paths.
Promoting yourself can help develop the image you potray to others. The model calls out for these 3 tips:
This can be quite hard, but the approach will increase your visibilaty. By putting yourself out there, where people are already looking, will help them be more aware of you.
The model tells you 4 ways of achieving this:
As an aside, the familiarity heurismatics supports the benefit of visibilaty.
People will value a familiar object more than an unfamiliar one.
This is one of the cognitive biases that most people experience.
The last factor that the PVI model talks about is influence. Now that you know how you perceived and you are more visible, you should use that to influence others.
Tell your senior leaders how you've helped shape and deliver their goals
Setting direction, empowering, and creating followership
Collecting favours and supporting your peer group
To develop more how you want to be perceived learn about: personal values, motivation, self-awareness and character.
Consider the importance of showing who you really are in work, by showing your vulnerability.
All of this is important to gain the trust and to lead with authentic leadership.
