Ep 143 - How to challenge upwards without damaging your career
There are these unspoken rules about the world of work that most of us buy into without questioning. One of those rules is that we don’t say no to our line manager or disagree with senior stakeholders. As a result, people end up frustrated, overworked and demotivated because they’ve never learnt how to challenge the thinking of senior stakeholders without challenging their authority. They’ve never learnt how to speak truth to power.
In this episode of the Influence & Impact for Female Leaders podcast, I will be sharing 9 practical strategies to help you to disagree with someone in authority without negatively impacting your career or your relationship. Whether you are dealing with your line manager, senior management team or your board you will find practical insights you can use to learn how to challenge in a constructive and career building way.
