Ep #163 - 5 Shifts to Develop Executive Presence in the Grind
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
You’re doing more than ever at work.
You’re the go-to person.
You’re delivering, executing, exceeding expectations…
And yet you’re still getting the feedback:
“You need to develop more executive presence.”
What does that even mean?
And why does it feel like the harder you work… the further you are from it?
In this episode of Breaking Free from the Grind, I’m breaking down what executive presence actually is, and the 5 shifts that will help you step into leadership at the next level without burning yourself out in the process.
In this episode, I’m diving in to discuss:
- Why “executive presence” feels so vague—and how overworking, over-delivering, and being the go-to person is actually keeping you stuck at your current level
- The identity shift from executor → leader—and how to stop proving your value through doing more, and start demonstrating it through how you think, decide, and show up
- The 5 key shifts to develop executive presence—including thinking at a higher level, communicating with clarity, and leading without over-functioning or losing yourself in the grind
If you’ve ever felt frustrated by vague feedback…
If you’re doing everything “right” but still not being seen as a leader…
If you’re exhausted from carrying everything—and still feeling like it’s not enough…
This episode will show you what actually needs to change so you can step into your next level without working yourself into the ground to get there.
