Heather Monahan

She has skills that other people don't even come close to.

But she's been told she makes leadership nervous because they think she's rogue, which she says, I have corrected and I now call innovative.

I love that.

Word choices are powerful.

I have them now building me a roadmap, extending my coaching and finding me leadership to advocate for me.

Right.

So this is so good.

She faced a challenge and she found a way to make it into an opportunity.

We all have that chance.

Because Heather, if you forgive me, honestly, F that.

Okay, she's pissed.

I have amazing reviews from everyone at work.

Listen, this happens sometimes when you're in corporate America.

People are telling you you're doing a great job, but when push comes to shove, you haven't been asking for what you want.

When you go in and put that ask in place, they kick back and say no, right?

And that's our chance and opportunity to hold people accountable and say something like this.

I'm confused.

Every review I've received of my work thus far that I have a folder on is exceptional and constantly notes the job that I'm doing.

If that's the case, then why wouldn't we be advancing me?

Right.
