Many people ask me about the value of being part of a networking and professional development community. And what is the value of being or having a Chief of Staff.

I find it fascinating that we are a people deeply connected to relationships, yet in practice we often lack a clear vision that investing in building and nurturing relationships is worthwhile. It can sound like fluff (or something \u201ctoo expensive, too much work\u201d). As if it would just happen \u201cnaturally.\u201d Would it?.. All I know is that, for a Chief of Staff working constantly on the frontlines, loneliness strikes\u2014and it strikes hard.

When I embraced the possibility of becoming a Chief of Staff more than 10 years ago, I had no idea what it meant: would it be projects, initiatives, governance, complementing the founder, acting as a bridge between departments, the \u201cglue\u201d that holds crises together, the guardian of strategic alignment\u2026? The fact is, I sat in the ambiguity of this role for many years\u2014and I received many nicknames, some affectionate (like \u201cPMMom\u201d lol), others not so much (\u201chere comes the luxury secretary\u201d).

Today, after becoming a member and more recently Regional Director LATAM of The Chief of Staff Association<\/a>I am certain that the mission of supporting the development and blossoming of this role\u2019s (often \u201chidden\u201d) potential in Latin American countries is far greater, more honorable (and why not fun!) than I could ever have imagined.

If you are a Chief of Staff here and are not sure about the value that a qualified network can add to your career, just take a look at the insights from the session called \u201cCircle of Influence\u201d, held today with dozens of Chiefs of Staff from The Chief of Staff Association<\/a> across the Americas and worldwide. The theme was\u2026 \u201cDefining Success: Measuring Impact & Value in the Chief of Staff Role.\u201d Oh, if only I had known this 10 years ago \ud83d\ude07 \ud83d\ude09

Key takeaways:

\u2013 Takeaway #1: Embrace the broad nature of the role \u2192 a Chief of Staff must know how to communicate the value they generate within the organization rather than just listing the tasks performed on behalf of their principal.
\u2013 Takeaway #2: Act as a gravitational pool to talent \u2192 a Chief of Staff must bring leaders and teams together around the organization\u2019s strategic objectives and not hide or cover up problems.
\u2013 Takeaway #3: See your ambiguity as a feature, not a bug \u2192 a Chief of Staff must act \u201cinvisibly\u201d to facilitate change management and cultural evolution, rather than expecting trophies for individual achievements.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
