Any IBD or general advice on moving from associate to VP from a personality point of view? Am quite outgoing and always tried to be a “culture-carrier” but now I have to garner respect from the juniors and they look at me like I’m going to ruin their lives. Need to find the line between being taken seriously and remaining approachable.

It will take some time for you to find your own management style that works. I’m outgoing and friendly to (most) everyone in the office so I’m pretty approachable and have an open door policy. But when the serious has to come out and I have to drop the hammer, I do it without losing my cool. Obviously we all lose our cool sometime and when that happens, I’ll go back to the person the next day and talk it out. It will take time for your team to get used to the way you work, and that’s ok.

Lead by example. Be a role model. Stay hands on. Give frequent feedback - both good and bad. Listen as much as you speak. Think back to the great role models you had when you were more junior and try to take the best attributes from them.

I have offers from both United Health Group and Atlassian for a Senior Financial Analyst position. Similar Comp (Atlassian slightly higher due to stock options). Coming from another healthcare company as a SFA, does anyone have experience at either company? In the long term, does Atlassian look better on a resume/work experience due to the Tech/Software space? Seems like their culture is great, but a much higher work load due to the nature of the company. Thanks! Happy to answer DM's too

Offer 1: Non-profit financial advisor, awesome culture, design process & ethos align with mine, but still beholden to some outdated backend systems. Basically won't be able to innovate for a while

Offer 2: Consultancy focused on spinning up startups in large corp. Seems like cool work but I know very little about the culture/ process. Very sales-y HR but haven't talked to designers yet

bizarre situation. Working w older male partner and younger male associate on precedent- setting litigation, super important to client. Client’s entire mission is this litigation. Older male partner and younger male associate are buddy buddy and blowing off all my concerns. I point out writing deficits, problems with our arguments, areas we need to tighten up and they see me as annoying and overly pedantic. Not sure if I should go to female dept chair abt this or just keep quiet.

It’s frustrating. I am V qualified, talented and capable, but this thing is killing me. Everyone I know is getting ahead and I’m constantly struggling even though I’m ambitious.
