Make Your Leadership Potential More Visible

You’re ready for the next level of responsibility in your organization. You believe you have the skills and leadership style to be successful. However, someone else gets selected when the opportunity for advancement presents itself.

Can you be better prepared next time?

Suzanne Peterson says that many talented professionals miss out on leadership roles for relatively intangible reasons. However, she believes that aspiring leaders can learn to alter their everyday interactions in small ways to influence their professional reputation so they have a better chance the next time opportunity comes knocking. 

Peterson was interviewed on a recent episode of the HBR on Leadership podcast. Some of the topics she discusses include leadership, leadership development, managing yourself, power and influence, leadership style, reputation management, aspiring leaders, careers.

I found the podcast interesting. Maybe it can help you be better prepared for your next leadership opportunity.
