Exiting Gracefully and Asking for More: Q&A with Marty and Em

Episode #184 // Have you ever faced a situation where you were being paid to do a job, but your heart simply wasn’t in it? Even as an individual contributor it’s not a good look… but as a leader it can be almost impossible to get away with. 

In this Q&A, Em and I discuss the difficulties of maintaining your leadership mojo when you aren’t aligned to your organization’s direction—and, of course, we offer some practical tips for overcoming the problem.

We also answer a great question on how to negotiate with your boss to get extra resources. This can be a daunting prospect, so in this episode, we provide deep insight into what your boss is probably thinking, and what she would have to hear in order for you to get what you need!
