You are working hard. Showing up. Doing everything you were told to do.
So why does it feel like no one is actually seeing you?
Visible Strengths gives you the answer, and more importantly, the strategy to change it.
You were not taught this in school.
Nobody told you that technical excellence alone would not be enough. Nobody warned you that in rooms full of high achievers, doing good work quietly is not a strategy. And nobody gave you the playbook for how to make the right people notice you, for the right reasons, without losing yourself in the process.
That gap is not your fault. But closing it is your responsibility, and that is exactly what this book is for.
What Visible Strengths will teach you
Capitalise on Strengths
Discover what you are naturally gifted at and learn how to build your work around it, not around what you think others want from you.
Contribute Value
Understand what truly matters to the people and organisations you serve, and deliver results they cannot ignore.
Communicate Results
Master the skill of telling the story of your work, so that the right people know who you are, what you do, and why it matters.
At any stage of your career, in any industry, it always comes back to these three things.
About the Author
From invisible to Executive Director
Mary Mosope Adeyemi spent the first four years of her career being told she was technically strong but not visible. As a Black woman in a predominantly white, male investment bank, she assumed visibility was the one thing she already had.
What she discovered changed everything.
With over 18 years in corporate banking and finance, including roles at Deutsche Bank, Bank of America, and a leading global investment bank where she rose to Executive Director, Mary now works with ambitious professionals across the world as a Career Clarity and Advancement Strategist and Learning and Development Consultant.
Visible Strengths is the book she wished she had at the start.
What readers are saying
“A vital career guide… not only a pragmatic and principled career guide but a manifesto bound to yield quick results.”
