As high-performing women, we're often focused on what's next.

The next project.

The next deadline.

The next responsibility.

But how often do we stop long enough to ask ourselves how leadership actually experiences our work?

In this episode, Shannon shares a simple reflection designed to help you see your career through a different lens.

Instead of asking how hard you're working, she asks a more important question:

If leadership had to describe the value you create today, what would they say?

That one question can reveal the gap between the value you're creating and the reputation you've built.

In this episode:
✔️ Why workplace reputation influences promotions
✔️ The difference between effort and positioning
✔️ How leadership forms perceptions over time
✔️ Why many high-performing women are known for reliability instead of leadership
✔️ The connection between reputation and career growth
✔️ How to identify the gap between your current reputation and your desired leadership identity
✔️ A simple reflection exercise to prepare for your next level of growth

This episode also sets the stage for next week's conversation about leadership visibility and how to help decision-makers recognize the value you already bring.
