Why do talented, hardworking professionals often struggle to get ahead? In episode 239 of IDEAS+LEADERS Podcast, we uncover the hidden rules of career advancement, influence, and power with Michael Wenderoth—an executive coach, Stanford MBA, and award-winning author of Get Promoted.

Michael’s provocative insights, featured in Harvard Business Review and Forbes, challenge conventional career advice by revealing an uncomfortable truth: hard work alone isn’t enough. To rise in leadership, professionals must understand power dynamics, embrace influence, and navigate office politics—ethically and effectively.

In this episode, we explore:

· Why "being too authentic" can actually hold you back in your career

· The biggest misconceptions about power, influence, and office politics

· How to use strategic networking and managing up to accelerate success

· The “Rock, Map, and Snowball” framework for getting unstuck in your career

· How professionals can gain influence without feeling manipulative

If you’ve ever felt stuck in your career or wondered why "working hard" isn't enough, this episode will give you the practical strategies and mindset shifts to take control of your professional growth.
