Sarah is a middle manager who thrives on the traditional office environment.

She believes that face-to-face interactions and formal presentations are essential for her success.

Sarah feels a lack of relevance and struggles when she's unable to book meetings and ensure that her ideas are heard through PowerPoint slides.

Pains

• Difficulty in capturing attention and conveying her ideas effectively without in-person presentations

• Fear of being overlooked or overshadowed by more adaptable colleagues

Goal

Sarah's ultimate goal is to regain a sense of relevance and control in her role as a middle manager.

Benefits

• Increased visibility and influence within the organization • Improved ability to capture attention and convey ideas effectively • Reinforced status as a trusted and valuable middle manager

Sounds about right from what I’ve seen :,)
