Sound familiar?
Being good at your job is not enough to win the respect you deserve.
In the meeting
There’s no agenda and no idea what you’ll be asked, so you wing it. Then the hard question comes, and you over-explain, get defensive or go blank.
With the budget
You know exactly what the money would deliver. The case still doesn’t get through, and the budget goes somewhere else.
With priorities
Your targets depend on other teams. They have their own priorities, and all you can say is they’re not giving you what you need.
With promotion
You’re ready for the next role. The people deciding haven’t seen it yet, so when the conversation comes you’re negotiating from behind.
In the hour
What we'll work through
Read the room before you walk in
Who decides, who influences, and who’s already made up their mind.
Land your point the first time
So you’re not scrambling in the moment, or over-explaining.
Make the request in a way they can’t say no to
Then stop talking yourself out of a yes.
Handle the curly question without flinching
Don’t let one hard question cost you the room.
Get airtime without anyone talking over you
Be the one they consult first.

Who it's for
If you know your results are stronger than your reputation.
You’re one step from your next role. You’re across the detail. And you still watch decisions go to whoever speaks first, or whoever has the decision maker’s ear.

Arabella Macpherson
Arabella trained as an actor and opera singer, then spent the next 18 years in boardrooms, ExCo offsites and multimillion-dollar pitch rooms with CEOs, executives and senior leadership teams across Australia, Asia, the UK and the US.
Her work starts with the person across the table: how they decide, what they'll ask, and what they need to hear. Get that right and the room starts listening.
