What Senior Leaders Really Look For When Promoting Someone

Every January, professionals plan to get ahead. By March, they're buried in meetings and maintenance work while the work that should move their career sits untouched. The issue isn't discipline - it's structure. In this episode, I show you how to build a realistic week using three zones: Focus Time (career-moving work), Maintenance Time (admin), and Messy Time (inevitable chaos). You'll also learn how to protect priorities by trading requests instead of absorbing them. For ambitious professionals and senior leaders who are busy but stuck.
