In this episode, Jordan and Stephen discuss:

  • The 5% Zone when you’re talking to your bosses boss, and how to drive that conversation

  • The cultural rules of the corporate game are unwritten, so you have to ask the right people to figure out what they are 

  • Make sure you have something of value to add when you speak.

Key Takeaways:

  • If you are not visible in your organization, you are invisible. Always think of ways to become more visible.

  • Being “authentic” means different things in different situations. Acting differently doesn’t always mean you are not being authentic.

  • You will always be compared to the person before you and the one coming after you, so if you want to be great, you have to continuously learn and grow.

"You can be authentic, but it's for different roles. Even as a parent with your younger kids, you cannot tell them in the same way as you would having a discussion with your spouse or your partner. You have to change that communication. And that's very important." —  Stephen Krempl
