Left Bain for an offer at a small tech company, and it took the new employer a month of pushing my start date, poor communication, and “internal discussion” to pull the offer because they think my US work visa is too risky for them, despite immigration lawyers backing me saying there’s virtually no risk. I’m now out of a job and on my visa grace period due to their incompetence (bullet dodged).

Any advice on potential actions besides jumping back into recruiting? Feeling quite disrespected 😫

My baseline is a data scientist background: stats, data visualization, storytelling with decks

I think I'm really bad at communication, storytelling, active listening etc. I'm good at 1-1 relationships, but really bad in 1-many scenarios. I just sound stupid often. Feel like I'm surrounded by people who communicate so much better. Has anyone improved their comms skills as they progressed in their careers? Any tips or courses that helped you on the way?

Hi,

I’ve been approached my by company that one of our large clients (who im currently project managing for) is looking for a consultant of sorts, and if they hire us, I’d be the first person asked to take on this consultant role. This isn’t something my company typically offers and would greatly change the scope of my role. Has anyone ever taken on a role like this? If so, were you able to negotiate a percentage of the consulting fee? Or was it a bump in salary during the project?

Overall, do male or female agents seem to get more work in the real estate sector... and why do you think this is?

Been for a company for over 2years. The executive team is very much a boy's club. There are a few women in management roles but zero ethnicity diversity there. I raised my concern to HR in feb. And they are just now deciding to do something about it. They want me (white female) to put together a diversity committee. Any suggestions on how to go about it? How to attract volunteers to the committee? I want to make sure I get the right people involved in this, to push for changes.
