Rent The Runway

Welcome to Work Tip Wednesday with Jeanelle Teves, CCO at Bugaboo and founder of Work Lunch. Every Wednesday, she gets ready and talks about career, leadership and a piece of advice she's learned working with some of the world's biggest brands. Today we’re talking about how to make a strong first impression, for example at a networking event or dinner. Here are 3 micro tips which make a big difference: 1. Enter with purpose and open energy. When you walk into the room, think approachable. Make eye contact, lead with a warm smile, and please put your phone away. People pick up on your energy before you even speak, so set the tone with confidence and open presence. 2. Start with curiosity, not small talk. I like the question “What’s something you’re working on?” It’s a thoughtful question that opens the door to more real, engaging conversations, and it helps you stand out. Other topics I like are "How do you know (the host)?" or "What's your affiliation with (organization)?" 3. Close the loop. If you had a great conversation, don’t let it end there. Ask if you can stay in touch, connect on socials, and follow up the next day with a quick note. Strong impressions last when you follow through.

Welcome to Work Tip Wednesday with Jeanelle Teves, CCO at Bugaboo and founder of Work Lunch. Every Wednesday, she gets ready and talks about career, leadership and a piece of advice she's learned working with some of the world's biggest brands. Today's topic: 3 Tips to Ace a Job Interview! As someone who has conducted a lot of job interviews, here are my best tips to stand out. 1. Know the Company Go beyond the website. Read press releases, check their socials, look at competitors. When you walk in, you want to show that you understand not just what they do, but where they’re going. 2. Practice Your Story Most interviews boil down to this: who you are, what you’ve done, and why you fit. Have 2-3 backpocket stories ready that show impact: times you solved a problem and created results. 3. Prepare Questions that Signal Value Don’t just ask about culture or next steps. Ask: ‘What does success look like in the first 90 days?’ or ‘What challenges are you hoping this role will solve?’ This is also a two-way street, their answers will tell you if this is an organization you want to be a part of.

Welcome to Work Tip Wednesday with Jeanelle Teves, CCO at Bugaboo and founder of Work Launch. Every Wednesday, she gets ready and talks about career, leadership, and a piece of advice she's learned working with some of the world's biggest brands. Today's topic: How to up-level your communication at work. Your best ideas fade when you can't communicate them clearly. Two moves that work: 1. Be concise: decisions happen faster when you get to the point. Repeat the intention of the meeting. Say things like "Our goal here is to..." or "Based on the objective of the meeting, my input is XYZ." 2. Own your nonverbal presence: how you sit, what do you wear, how you pay attention. It speaks before you do. You can find more presentation tips in her masterclass series, Work Lunch, a career growth suite for ambitious corporate professionals. Wearing all Rent The Runway!
