Identifying your limits and setting boundaries
At some time or another we have all been sat in front of a client and had that heart sinking moment when a topic arises outside of our comfort zone or right on the limits of our capabilities.
Perhaps you have done a personal SWOT or even asked a client to do one, but one of the most satisfying ways of spring boarding your business forward is to look at your skills gaps and then address how these are helping or hindering you! and more importantly what you can do about it.
Being comfortable with your own limits also helps you set healthy boundaries personally. This includes your day to day time management and dealing with that client who gets increasingly closer to crossing a boundary, maybe even trampling all over it calling or messaging you day or night and expecting you to respond.
This Words of Wisdom Q & A session will address all the above topics and add some valuable tips and techniques to both your own and your client’s toolkit.
