Approached
Stop Applying. Get Approached.
Some senior professionals get approached for the right roles. Others apply.
I help Heads of, Directors, and C-suite executives across Australia, NZ, UK, US, Canada, Singapore and Japan become the ones who get approached.
At senior level, the roles worth having usually tap people for conversations long before they are advertised. They initially identify potential candidates through the peer layer above the recruiter. Between decision-makers who know your work, and the peers they trust to recommend you. Quietly. Before the search is briefed.
If the people who could hire you do not currently know your work, they will not recommend you. That is why applying stops working at senior level.
The Approached Method is a specific four-move framework:
Position: how you appear at senior level.
Signal: what decision-makers see when they scan.
Target: the specific decision-makers who create your opportunities.
Relationships: how you become known to them.
I give the entire framework away for free. In my newsletter, in my content, in my book (coming soon). Then I help senior professionals execute it.
