Ever wondered why some careers seem to rocket upward while others plateau despite stellar performance? The answer lies in a hidden power structure rarely discussed openly: executive sponsorship.

Beyond skills and performance metrics exists an invisible infrastructure that determines who advances to leadership roles.

Yet those with sponsors are 65% more likely to receive career-advancing opportunities.

This episode unveils the mechanics of this hidden system, and how you can navigate around it without playing office politics.

Revolutionary transformation awaits Black introverted women who've been stuck in the cycle of vague feedback and missed promotions. What my clients are discovering upends everything we've been taught about career advancement.

The solution isn't working harder or waiting longer – it's revolutionizing your approach through the three Ps: positioning, perception, and power.
