Why aren’t you getting the promotion you’ve worked so hard for? Many mid-to-senior leaders focus on surface-level fixes like improving executive presence, being more engaged, or stopping micromanaging. But these are often symptoms of deeper patterns that hold you back, no matter how much you try to “work on them.”
In this episode, I’ll uncover the three hidden barriers that could be quietly affecting your career growth, including:
1. Take things personally and consider how they impact your leadership presence.
2. Failing to set boundaries, which prevents strategic focus.
3. Pursuing promotions that might not align with what you truly want.
