The Difference Between High-Performing and High-Leverage Leaders

Why Your Excellence Is Actually Limiting Your Advancement

They need you where you are. That's why you can be the highest performer on your leadership team and still watch others get promoted ahead of you.

In this episode, I'm sharing what really happens in succession planning meetings and why companies distinguish between high-performing and high-leverage leaders and only promote one of them.

If you're a Director or VP tired of being the most reliable person in the room but never the first name mentioned for strategic opportunities, this episode pulls back the curtain on how the game is really played.

You'll learn why your excellence might be working against you, how to shift from performance to leverage positioning, and what it really takes to be seen at the strategic level you're already operating at.

The work speaks for itself. But they're not listening. It's time to reframe the conversation.
