IN CONFIDENCE: EPISODE 63
What to Do When You're Left Out of Strategy and Someone Talks Behind Your Back (Part 2)
EPISODE GUIDE
Have you ever felt trusted to get the work done but never included in the decisions that shape it? Or discovered that someone at work has been talking behind your back and had no idea what to do next? Before this season launched, Lisa asked you to send in your real work problems. Now she is answering them directly.
In Part 2 of the Work Problems series, Lisa tackles two of the most personal challenges you sent in, drawing on hard earned lessons from her own career and a book she is currently writing on trust and betrayal. In this episode you will learn:
* How to move from being seen as an executor to being seen as a strategic thinker
* The exact approach Lisa's own chief of staff used to become an indispensable thought partner
* What to say when a fully baked plan lands on your desk and you can see what is missing
* How to have the conversation with someone who has been talking behind your back without making things worse
* Why trust is rebuilt in small consistent steps and what those steps actually look like
If you missed Part 1, Lisa covered being excluded from meetings and navigating a power struggle at work. Go back and listen.
