Ep #302: What If Being “Presumptuous” Is Exactly What Your Career Needs?
In this episode of Women Changing Leadership, I break down the concept of being “presumptuous” at work and why taking initiative is actually a key leadership move—not a flaw. Drawing on live coaching with my clients, I challenge common fears around advocating for yourself, networking with senior leaders, and negotiating salaries. I explain how to reframe what seems presumptuous into proactive strategies that set you up for long-term career success, from creating meaningful connections early on to confidently negotiating what you deserve. If you’re ready to get promoted, get paid, and bring your whole self to the leadership table, this episode is packed with practical advice and empowering examples to help you step into your next level of leadership—on your own terms.
