How to Get What You Want
You already know what you want. The question is, do you know how to get it?
On How to Get What You Want, Susie Tomenchok shows you how to navigate the moments at work that actually determine your career. The conversations, decisions, and situations where what you say and how you show up shapes your career growth, leadership presence, and professional advancement.
Because getting what you want isn’t about being louder or more aggressive. It’s about how you think, how you position yourself, and how you handle those moments at work.
And whether you call it that or not, that’s negotiation.
Not the kind that feels pushy or uncomfortable. The everyday kind you’re already in.
When you decide to speak up in a meeting
When you ask for an opportunity
When you handle workplace conflict
When you position your ideas and advocate for your value
Each week, Susie breaks down real workplace scenarios, communication strategies, and mindset shifts so you can stop second-guessing yourself and start getting what you want in your career and your life.
How to Get What You Want
What Changes the Day You Get Promoted
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
You get the promotion and then you show up to your staff meeting, run your one-on-ones, and jump in to solve problems exactly like you always have. You're waiting for the title to do the work of changing how people see you.
Weeks go by and nothing shifts. And it's not them...it's you. The room doesn't change until you do.
That's the negotiation lens most people miss when they think about leadership. You're setting terms with everyone around you every single day, whether you mean to or not. I'm walking you through the three shifts that actually move the needle, and the first one has nothing to do with your title at all.
In this episode, I'll cover:
- What you need to say to your team before anything else can shift
- The habit in your one-on-ones you didn't realize was working against you
- How to borrow someone else's leadership style without losing your own
🎯 Done feeling overlooked while you watch others move forward?
