What is
The Messy Middle™?

After working 1:1 with 3,000+ career professionals to date, from Aspiring, Mid-Management, Senior Leadership to Executive/CXO, I've observed that there are very specific, unique caveats and challenges that the Aspiring and Mid-Management to Senior Leadership levels face.
Some of the foremost challenges that come to mind encompass questions such as below.
Do any of these ring true with your search?
-
"How do I craft my branding when I am pursuing various level-roles within an organization?"
-
"I've done it all, and excelled at everything I did, so why am I not getting traction in my job search?"
-
"At this juncture in my career, I no longer want to do turn arounds. I need to address the pigeonholing that is going on and change how the market perceives me so that I can gain traction in pursuing my future-facing career goals, which are pretty specific...how do I do this?"
-
"I need 2 different versions of my resume as I am pursuing both C-Suite roles for a smaller company AND Senior Director-level roles for a larger, possibly Fortune 1000 company. How do I strategize my messaging around this for best traction in the market?
-
"My company has grown exponentially over the past 5 years. As a result, I've worn many hats and jumped in where needed. But now I want to explore other industries and am concerned that my "job titles" are confusing and do not align in a way that makes sense to others outside the company. How can I address this to gain traction in the market?"
These are all very good questions and concerns.
What I've found over the years is that a traditional resume writing-approach or job search-approach cannot effectively address these challenges.
That a new approach is needed to best help and serve individuals facing these challenges. Hence, the founding of TCA Branding Solutions for The Messy Middle™ ensued, which provides customized targeted solutions and strategies to help those who are navigating The Messy Middle.™
To your empowerment & success,
