Being the smartest person in the room doesn’t automatically make you sound like the strategic leader. In this episode, Jill Griffin breaks down the analysis-to-authority gap and why the way you communicate your expertise may be affecting how your leadership is perceived.
• Why your best thinking may not be getting the reaction it deserves
• The subtle habit that can position you as the expert in the work, but not the person making the call
• What changes when you stop trying to prove you’ve earned the right to have a point of view
