If you’re saying yes to everything at work, that might be the exact reason you’re not getting promoted.

In this episode, I walk through how to identify promotable vs non-promotable work, why being the most helpful person on the team often leads to invisible effort, and how to start demonstrating VP-level judgment before you ever have the title. You’re not being selfish. You’re being strategic.
