282| Quantifying Your Impact Without Hard Numbers

from Future Female Leaders

Addressing a common roadblock, Nichole helps listeners whose roles don't come with obvious metrics find the numbers hiding in their work anyway. In this episode: Why roles outside of sales often feel harder to quantify, and why that's not actually true Thinking in terms of time: how long something used to take versus now, and time saved through a process or shortcut Thinking in terms of volume: how many customers, projects, or people were handled, especially as volume grows without quality dropping Thinking in terms of frequency or consistency: hitting every deadline, zero errors, or repeated positive feedback as its own kind of number Thinking in terms of comparison: being the go-to person or having your work used as the example, done carefully and tactfully Using scope when no number exists: how many people, departments, or process steps your work touches Why an estimated number, stated confidently, is still far more compelling than leaving it vague Today's task: apply one of the five lenses, time, volume, frequency, comparison, or scope, to one brag document entry that currently has no number attached Download the 7 Days to Ask for a Raise Challenge to help you confidently ask for a raise here.
