The importance of self advocacy for you as a Linchpin Assistant

I didn’t invent the phrase ‘hope is not a strategy’ but I love it and I think it’s particularly relevant for assistants who find themselves trapped in a hope-based strategy when it comes to asking for what they want and what they need AND asking for what their boss wants and needs.

In this episode I explore the topic of self advocacy and how it is one area where being comfortable engaging in difficult conversations is an essential Power Skill that I want you to invest energy in developing.
