Manage episode 448794395 series 3446361
You want more power.
But, here's what you're missing
Power isn’t earned respect
Power doesn’t mean value either.
This week's conversation with Allison Fragale, best-selling author of Likeable Badass: How Women Get The Success They Deserve, reveals three game-changing insights about power, status, and success.
The Power Trap
> Power without status is like having keys to a room nobody wants to enter.
> Think about it, when did you ever enthusiastically follow someone because of their title?
> Status comes before power - it's what makes people want to give you opportunities, not out of obligations.
The Status Formula
Two dimensions determine your status:
- Capability: Your proven ability to deliver
- Caring: Your commitment to others' success
This explains why some executives get every opportunity
While others, equally qualified, get passed over.
Every interaction either builds or erodes your perception.
The Strategic Truth
The most successful executives build status when they don't need it.
It's not networking - it's status building.
In today's world of remote work and AI, status is the ultimate differentiator between good and great careers.
The Bottom Line:
> Power can be given.
> Status must be earned.
> Which one are you building today?
