Welcome back to our Episode #69 of The Daily Interaction podcast. Today’s topic is Leapfrog to Success at Corporate with 8 Smart Boss Strategies. Let’s talk about navigating the corporate landscape and how you need to interact with your boss so you can move up that corporate ladder. Remember, your boss is your gatekeeper so understanding these strategies is going position you ideally for that next promotion.

I learned a lot in my nearly 12 years at Corporate America, and this was no small business. I worked for a multi-billion dollar Fortune 100 company and I was determined to build a career.

For the first half, I was fumbling along, even if it pains me to admit it. For the latter half, I was leapfrogging, and working half as much, and building my other dreams on the side while earning the most money and enjoying the best perks. You know the difference? I figured out how the system works, and yes there is a system and no there is not a manual.

Do you know how the system to promotions and advancements and upward mobility at your company works? Are you taking the right steps to ensure you are positioned well for that next promotion or raise?

And do you know the role that your boss plays in your career and in your success at the workplace?

Let’s jump into the podcast to talk about these 8 Smart Boss Strategies that you can start implementing to-morrow!
