Podcast 8. Seasons. Spring. Part 1! (subtitles in 10 languages) Времена года. Весна. Часть первая

Robert, a talented but interview-anxious software developer, landed his dream job interview. He had the technical skills, but his past experiences with open-ended questions left him feeling unprepared.  To help, I, his career coach, introduced him to the power of behavioral interviewing.

We started by dissecting the job description. We identified key skills like problem-solving, teamwork, and communication.  Then, I crafted mock behavioral questions targeting those skills. For example, "Tell me about a time you debugged a complex coding error while collaborating with a team."

Next, I introduced Robert to the STAR method (Situation, Task, Action, Result).  We practiced crafting compelling responses using his past projects.  For the example question, Robert described a project with a critical bug impacting user experience. He highlighted how he collaborated with his team, broke down the issue logically, and ultimately identified the root cause, leading to a successful fix.

The coaching didn't stop there.  We role-played the interview, focusing on clear communication and confident delivery.  I encouraged Robert to use action verbs and quantify his achievements where possible.  Instead of simply saying "fixed the bug," he could say "identified and resolved a critical bug, improving application performance by 20%."

The interview day arrived, and Robert aced it!  He later told me the behavioral questions felt familiar thanks to our preparation.  By showcasing his past experiences using the STAR method, he convinced the interviewer of his skills and fit for the role.  Robert's success story is a testament to the power of behavioral interview preparation.

[손님]: 안녕하세요. 한국 음식은 처음이라 무엇을 시켜야 할지 잘 모르겠어요.

[직원]: 안녕하세요! 어떤 맛을 좋아하시는지 여쭤봐도 될까요? 매운 음식은 괜찮으세요?

[손님]: 저는 매운 음식을 잘 못 먹어요. 한국 음식은 매운 게 많다고 들어서 걱정돼요.

[직원]: 맞습니다. 다행히 저희는 매운 정도를 조절할 수 있어요. 예를 들어, 비빔밥은 여러 나물, 고기, 계란, 그리고 고추장을 넣어 비벼 먹는데, 매운 맛을 고객님께 맞춰 드릴 수 있습니다.

[손님]: 비빔밥은 제가 원하는 만큼 덜 맵게 해주실 수 있다는 말씀이시죠?

[직원]: 네, 맞습니다.

[손님]: 그러면 비빔밥 하나 부탁드릴게요. 그리고 김치찌개는 어떤 음식인지 설명해 주세요.

[직원]: 김치찌개는 발효된 김치, 돼지고기, 두부, 야채 등이 들어간 찌개입니다. 약간 매콤하면서도 깊은 맛이 특징이고, 역시 매운 정도를 조절할 수 있어요.

[손님]: 김치는 배추를 발효시켜 만든 음식이죠? 어떤 맛이 나는지 궁금해요.

[직원]: 네, 김치는 신맛, 짠맛, 그리고 약간의 매콤함이 어우러져 있습니다. 처음 드시면 특이하게 느껴질 수 있지만, 다른 음식과 함께 드시면 맛이 더 좋아집니다.

[손님]: 그렇군요 그러면 비빔밥과 김치찌개, 두 가지 메뉴로 주문할게요.

[직원]: 알겠습니다. 혹시 해산물 요리도 경험해 보고 싶으시다면 해물파전을 추천드립니다. 해물파전은 해산물과 채소를 넣어 부쳐낸 전으로, 겉은 바삭하고 속은 부드러워요.

[손님]: 해물파전도 한 번 먹어보고 싶네요. 하나 추가해 주세요.

[직원]: 네, 비빔밥, 김치찌개, 해물파전 세 가지 메뉴로 주문해 드리겠습니다. 추가로 물이나 음료도 필요하실까요?

[손님]: 물 한 잔 부탁드려요.

[직원]: 주문은 곧 준비해 드리겠습니다. 메뉴에 대해 더 궁금하신 점 있으시면 언제든지 말씀해 주세요.

[직원]: 즐거운 식사 되시길 바랍니다!

I want to speak English; this is the wrong goal!

Do you want to be more motivated to achieve your English-language-related goals but sometimes feel demotivated?

Do you feel the desire to achieve the goals faster but see yourself at a slow pace?

And do you believe there are methods to help you?

If you'll turn to psychology and look at solutions for your English language-related goals, you'll find something I am here to help you gain—the understanding of secondary gains!

In psychology, a secondary gain is when you benefit from a problem. It’s when you receive advantages from unwanted conditions, circumstances, or limitations. In other words, you benefit from not overcoming problems. 

It doesn’t mean the problem is positive, but the benefits of having the problem support you in keeping it rather than solving it.

Secondary gains are guides to help you get unstuck. They’re an invitation to understand the advantages you receive from retaining problems instead of solving them.

In simple terms, you crave attention and accidentally injure yourself. As a result, people care for you. You get what you want (attention), but at the expense of what you don’t want (injury).

Is it now clear to you? What are your secondary gains from not following through on your language learning goals that you benefit from?

This might be a game-changer for you in learning to communicate in English confidently and fluently.

Give it a go and allow yourself some space to think and resolve some uncommon issues. Good luck.

Mastering Confidence: How to look confident in an important meeting?

Confidence is essential for success in any high-stakes meeting. It’s not just about outward appearances; it’s deeply rooted in your self-image. Your self-image is the mental picture you hold of yourself – your skills, strengths, and values.

A negative self-image can manifest in weak communication, a hesitant tone, and unconfident body language. These traits can hinder your ability to express yourself effectively and project your worth in important meetings/ job interviews / IELTS speaking tests.

By working on your self-image, you can cultivate the inner confidence that translates into powerful communication. This involves recognizing your strengths, challenging negative self-talk, and building a positive belief system about your abilities.

My mindset coaching programs help individuals awaken their inner success potential. Through targeted training, I empower clients to overcome limiting beliefs and develop the confidence necessary to thrive in demanding situations.

Are you ready to unlock your full potential in meetings? Dive into this transformative journey and prepare for change!

Mastering Confidence: How to look confident in an important meeting?

La mouette rieuse.
Bonjour, je suis Rieuse, la mouette rieuse. C’est mon vrai nom. Je vis surtout à la mer. J’adore jouer avec les vagues, en poussant des cris perçants ! En hiver, je préfère les villes et le bord des fleuves. On me jette du pain et des restes de repas. Je suis très gourmande.
Ce matin, j’ai rencontré une souris. J’allais l’attraper quand elle a crié:
- Je suis la souris verte, une souris magique. Si tu me manges, tu seras transformée en corbeau !
Moi, la mouette rieuse, changée en corbeau ? J’ai préféré quelques vers de terre pour mon dîner. Pourtant, je crois que cette souris verte était une farceuse. Qu’en penses-tu?
