from SisterSmart Leadership

You’re up for the VP role.On paper you’re the obvious pick. You have the results, receipts, and a team that would follow you anywhere.And still there is a voice in your head that keeps you a half step back.It tells you to check that deck one more time before you send it. To hold the work close because your team is maxed out already.That voice feels like the very thing that got you there, your work ethic.But what if you’ve been successful in spite of that voice and not because of it?There are ten of these voices. One master and nine accomplices. Most women have no idea which ones are running the show.So which ones are yours?Jill is joined by SisterSmart coach Monica for this one.Tune in to learn:• What a ‘saboteur’ is and why yours shows up hardest at the director to VP line• The two that almost nobody guesses about themselves• What to do the moment you catch one in action👋 ABOUT MONICAMonica is a SisterSmart coach covering the UK and European time zones.
