You're doing all the right things—delivering results, taking initiative, working harder than ever. 

So why are you still being passed over for promotion?

In this episode, I'm breaking down the real reason high-performing women in tech get overlooked for executive roles—and how to shift from being overlooked to being seen as a strategic leader so you can take the next step toward your promotion with clarity and confidence.

"Performance doesn't equal promotion. If you're delivering results but still being overlooked, you're playing the wrong game—and it's time to learn how to play like an executive." — Toni Collis

What You'll Learn in This Episode:

  • Why performance ≠ promotion (and what does)
  • The 5 executive skills decision-makers are looking for
  • How to shift from "reliable doer" to "strategic leader"
  • Subtle perception gaps that derail your promotion path
  • What to say and do to change how you're seen in the room

🔍 If you're not getting promoted, it doesn't mean you're not good enough.

It doesn't mean you need to work harder. 💡 It means it's time to shift how you're showing up.
