Episode Summary
In this Ask Katy episode, I pull back the curtain on three common career challenges I see over and over again in my coaching program and community. You'll hear how I coach women through frustrating annual reviews, peers and managers who seem to take credit for their work, and the pressure to be strategic when you're still doing everything yourself.
I walk you through the exact questions to ask your manager so your next annual review reflects your true impact, how to protect your strategic ideas without damaging relationships, and how to balance high-level thinking with the tactical work on your plate. If you're a senior manager or director on the path to VP, this is a powerful window into the kind of support that helps you move faster and feel less alone.
What You'll Learn
The specific questions to ask now so your annual review is clear, fair, and aligned with your goals
How to handle coworkers or managers who seem to be taking credit for your ideas while still protecting your leadership brand
Practical ways to create visibility for your work so people actually see your impact
How to act like a strategic leader even when you don't have a team yet, including how to use time blocking to protect your deep work
Why so many high-performing women feel isolated in their roles and how the right community can change that
If this episode resonates, please share it with another woman in leadership who's working toward her next promotion. The more we support each other, the more women we'll see in VP and executive roles.
