As a professional, your X Factor is a powerhouse that can transform your presentations and your professional life.
It’s that special something that sets you apart. Yet defining X Factor can feel nebulous, like trying to nail jelly to a tree, as the possibilities are limitless. X Factor can be expressed as a word, phrase, quality, vibe, feeling, talent, hobby, song, skill, story, or special sauce!
But don’t despair, there is a solution.
Your X Factor is born from your own unique set of skills, talents, lived experiences, quirks, hobbies and interests.
In my latest book X Factor: Unleash your presenting superpower, I guide you towards crafting your X Factor as a statement that embodies three ideas that represent you. My clients tell me the process is simple, effective and delivers great results every time.
In my case my X Factor statement is, ‘the world’s only economist turned Bollywood-dancing business storyteller’.
An X Factor statement expresses who you are in a way that is individual, memorable and original.
The simplest way to wrap your head around this is to think of your X Factor statement as your personal tagline. YOUR SUPERPOWER
This distilling of your X factor as a statement gives you one way of expressing something that is notoriously hard to pin down.
What unique skills or talents could you consider for your X Factor statement?
