The very behaviors that help you build a strong career early on can become the ones that keep you from rising into senior leadership.
Assuming your hard work will spontaneously be noticed deprives you of recognition and prevents leadership from understanding your true strategic value.
Mastering every detail of your current job proves you are perfect for that exact role, but advancing requires managing experts rather than being the sole expert.
While women excel at building authentic workplace friendships, they must learn to actively leverage those connections for mutual professional benefit and career advancement.
