This! I did a rewrite of my resume with this theme 3 years back and it made a huge difference. So stress on the business value added, your role in the team, if you solved a particularly tricky problem etc. These also make good interview points.
A pro athlete resume would list their wins and teamwork and show an ongoing record of performance. It would not list the brands of shoes they wore.
The actual profile for almost every job is “Can add business value, solve problems, work with people, achieve goals.” Match that profile.
