Win your challenges with our unique solutions

Career growth at senior levels isn’t driven by skills alone but also how effectively you navigate change -internally and professionally. At Karmic Ally Coaching, I work with accomplished women professionals who want to strengthen their Executive Presence, lead with confidence, and position themselves for leadership roles. Many high achievers reach a point where progress feels harder than it should. Despite strong performance, they may experience hesitation, reduced visibility, or uncertainty about their next step. Change often sits at the heart of these moments. The Karmic Ally Coaching Change Management Quiz is a short self-assessment designed to help you understand how you currently respond to change and challenge at work.
 

Present yourself to the World, You’ve got the Power!

LinkedIn SlideShare is a powerful social sharing platform

 

Like any business owner, I’m always looking for effective ways content marketing tactics to raise the visibility of my business and awareness about Karmic Ally Coaching’s brand.

Content marketing for me means getting my message out to my audience using mediums that appeal to them. Blogging is one way but there are other mediums where we can repurpose our content to reach a wider audience such as videos, podcasts, ebooks, infographs and sharing slides to name a few.

These mediums enable us to raise our profile and build our brand in the same way that career professionals do.

In my book Get Noticed! 15 Insider Tips guaranteed to improve your Executive Presence  I write about building your own brand and also address looking for opportunities to raise your profile because you’ve got the power to create your world.

 

Get Noticed with these 15 insider tips that raise your Executive Presence at work

 

The same tactics can be used to build your brand and raise your profile with a much larger audience where you might find fellow professionals who can provide you with information for advancing your career.

I’m talking about LinkedIn, which I consider the best networking platform for professionals and businesses.

The best tool you can use is LinkedIn SlideShare (formerly Slideshare) that allows us to upload Presentations, Documents, Videos, Infographics and even create Clipboards with slides from presentations that we like and then share them with the world across social media sites that include Google+, Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn (similar to Pinterest).

When you link your LinkedIn Profile and SlideShare together your uploaded presentation, gets shared in your LinkedIn update which means indirectly, you’re maintaining your presence in front of your connections.

Who knows? One of them may Like, Comment or even Share your presentation with their circle which means added exposure to their network.

You can also add your SlideShare presentations to the summary portion of you LinkedIn profile with a single click (see how I’ve done it here).

SlideShare also has an internal search function that people use to find presentations on topics of interest to them and this increases your visibility in front of professionals already using this.

In case you are new to SlideShare, here is some information that will put my recommendation in perspective.

 

9 Facts about the awesome social tool LinkedIn SlideShare

 

9 facts about the awesome social tool called LinkedIn SlideShare

 

The data and statistics below have been collected from LinkedIn Slideshare’s website, Wikipedia and research on the internet. Figures may change from time to time and this information is relevant as of June 2018.

  • Slideshare was founded in October 2006 and acquired by LinkedIn in May 2012. So once you link the two (the resources section of LinkedIn provides information on how to do this) you can easily reach a wider audience with your uploaded presentations and documents.
  • SlideShare was rebranded to LinkedIn SlideShare in August 2015.
  • LinkedIn SlideShare ranks among the top 156 most visited websites in the world (Alexa ranking in June 2018).
  • LinkedIn SlideShare has 80 million users worldwide.
  • Total number of pieces of content shared to date is 18 million.
  • There are 40 content categories in this slideshare hosting service which is available in 5 languages.
  • In February 2011 SlideShare added a feature called Zipcasts, a social web conferencing system that allows presenters to broadcast an audio/video feed while driving the presentation through the Internet. Zipcasts also allows users to communicate during the presentation via an inbuilt chat function.
  • Google indexes your SlideShare presentations, including notes and transcripts which means you can be found via a Google search that raises your credibility for the topic of your presentation and any keywords that you want to be identified with in relevant queries.
  • If you are in business and want to amplify your lead generation tactics, then the good news is you can insert Calls to Action and live links anywhere after the first 3 slides. Please note, this can’t be done in the description of the presentation.

I mentioned earlier that you can share your presentations on other social media platforms as well as embed on your website.

To give you a live examples, here is one of my presentations on SlideShare.

Meet your coach

I believe the world would be a better place if high achieving professionals accepted setbacks and challenges to their careers as Wake Up Calls to embark on a Journey where their empowered course correcting actions create a New World Order that encompasses achieving their career aspirations & potential with authentic life balance.

If you’re a driven, passionate, talented and ambitious professional  who’s hit a speed breaker in your business or career and want to create your desired breakthrough to reclaim control of your situation, then you’ve come to the right place because we can work together on customized strategies and tactics that deliver results.

When my clients first reach out to me, they are not in a very happy place, needing clarity about themselves, their desires, chosen vocation and what will give them peace of mind. They are drawn to me for the very reasons that I highlight in Who Is Karmic Ally Coaching.

Lack of recognition at work, inability to project themselves with confidence and frustration are just some of their professional problems that are playing havoc with other areas of their life. They know they need to take radical steps to change the status quo but they also know they need support and accountability to get them their desired result.

I really get it, because I’ve experienced that dark night of the Soul. I know firsthand the outcome of getting lost in my work rationalizing decisions that were detrimental to other aspects of my life.

Like you, I’ve struggled with and won battles of stress management, corporate politics, life balance and career decisions to emerge in a place where I can confidently say that I live my desired life according to my personal Manifesto and have created a business that provides me with a platform for my desired lifestyle and self-expression for myself. I want that for you too!

Testimonials

Given me a jumpstart to move on

Thank you Vatsala, for helping me structure my immediate goals to make my presence felt in the Organization. Your calm and composed style of listening to what I was thinking regarding being stuck in my current job, not able to make my presence felt in the Leadership circle of my company, is praiseworthy.

You smartly made me connect with you quickly, asking the right questions, pushing me to arrive at the specific activities I need to take up. You were able to dig in to my natural qualities and make specific mention of them. You have given me a jumpstart to move on, handle my current situation and ideas to make it work for my better future.

 

The power of choice, many times I felt that I cannot control how I felt when someone makes a silly comment, or ignores me. I preferred to keeping away from that person to eliminate any conflicts. but after talking to you and accepting that if it is not practical to eliminate such situations, I have the power to choose, taking small steps to ultimately emerge a WINNER..

I would do things differently than any normal person would have done, thus leading to MAKING MY PRESENCE FELT. Thanks a lot.

One of the best investments in my career

Padmaja Shetty Profile pictureWorking with Vatsala has been one of the best investments in my career. Her personalized guidance, actionable strategies, and unwavering support helped me gain clarity when I was in a career slump.

She challenged me to step outside my comfort zone, provided tools to address issues, and take bold action, which has provided much needed clarity and confidence to handle work situations better.

Beyond the tangible results, Vatsala provided me with tools and insights that continue to benefit me beyond just work. I can’t recommend her coaching enough to anyone looking to take their career to the next level.

Helped me to define both short term & long term goals

Vanita Hork In my experience, Vatsala is a very professional and dedicated coach, respecting the client’s natural pace, while at the same time seeking to maintain momentum and commitment in the coaching sessions.

Vatsala coached me for twelve weeks, and her action plan oriented approach has given me long term results. Each session was followed up with a written session recap and progress report from Vatsala, which was a big help and motivation to me in actually doing the actions we had talked about.

Vatsala helped me to define both short term and long term goals, which is invaluable to me in keeping the right perspective in daily decisions at work and home.

I recommend people to invest their time with Vatsala’s coaching – the benefits are tangible, immediate but also long lasting.

Helped me by making a priority of what needs to be done

I approached Vatsala at Karmic Ally Coaching because of Shiny Object Syndrome. I have always had this distract me and the tools Vatsala gave me to avoid this have been such a great help.

Vatsala Shukla of Karmic Ally Coaching helped me by making a priority of what needs to be done and what can really be put on the back burner. The result was I accomplish more on a daily basis and am finally on track with my business.

One thing I liked was her Time Management Tips because they helped me break down my day where I could fit everything necessary in and even have time for myself. I found the experience exhilarating because I was a procrastinator and now am a doer.

I would recommend Karmic Ally Coaching to people who need guidance in their business and to learn how to plan their days better to achieve their goals.

Good luck going forward.

Love and Blessings,

Catherine
