The only way to progress in your career is to do things you’ve never done before – aka, sign up for stretch opportunities.

Stretch roles and projects are the rocket fuel that can power your career forward…and the trial-by-fire that can burn you out.

Whether you’re holding yourself back from asking for one (and knowing it’s holding your career back too)...

Or whether you’re actively in one, and trying not to let your imposter syndrome eat you alive…

The 3 skills in this episode are what you need to survive, thrive, and grow in the stretch zone.
