169. Strategizing Success with Alison Fragale, PhD

At this time of year when we are celebrating the holidays with much socializing and networking, this week's guests would likely suggest that, amongst the merriment, we should also be prioritizing self promotion and peer promotion. Alison Fragale, PhD, scholar, author, research psychologist, and award winning professor sits down to discuss how you can demonstrate warmth and competence to become a likeable badass and get the success you deserve.   Alison shares her own journey from management consultant to professor in Organizational Psychology, focusing on helping women navigate career challenges; shares how through her professional experience and research for her book, "Likeable Badass," she's found that status is an important component of personal and professional success; and how through strategic and authentic behavior success is within our reach.
