Build Your Catbird Seat View

 

Translate your expertise into the business language leaders actually use to decide trust, visibility, and advancement.

 

When your work is strong but forward motion has slowed, the missing piece is often not more effort.

It is a clearer read on what leadership is actually solving for.

Inside complex organizations, decisions are shaped by business pressure, risk, priorities, stakeholder dynamics, and how leaders interpret value.

This working session helps you build your first-draft Catbird Seat View so you can begin seeing the system more clearly — and connect your work to what the business cares about now.

 What’s Included

  • A practical working session to help you map what leadership is actually organizing around
  • Guided Catbird Seat prompts to help you read your company, role, and stakeholder environment more clearly
  • A first-draft framework for identifying business pressures, priorities, power dynamics, and say/do gaps
  • Targeted questions and observations to help you test what is true — not just what is said
  • A practical way to see where your work connects to strategic outcomes
  • Immediate access so you can begin building your working draft right away 

Who It’s For

For highly capable women in STEM and Finance who are already delivering strong work and want to understand why some contributions gain traction while others remain peripheral.

This is especially useful if you are:

  • Preparing for promotion
  • Recently promoted
  • Working with more senior stakeholders
  • Moving from technical contribution into more strategic, commercial, risk, product, finance, or enterprise-facing conversations
  • Noticing that excellent work alone is no longer the whole game

Not Another General Career Resource

This is not motivational content, generic career advice, or theory for someday.

It's a practical working session for reading the environment you are in right now — so you can understand what leaders are paying attention to, what pressures are shaping decisions, and how your work may need to be translated to land with more strategic relevance.

Because at the Maverick Inflection Point, the issue is often not your expertise.

It's the translation of your expertise into the business context leaders are using to decide trust.Â
