In today’s episode, we’re diving into a simple yet powerful phrase that can reshape how you navigate workplace challenges: “That’s above my pay grade.” Far from being dismissive or defensive, this phrase—when used thoughtfully—can set clear boundaries, safeguard your professional integrity, and help you approach tough situations with confidence and clarity.
I’ll share a personal story highlighting the importance of maintaining boundaries, especially when your values or role are being tested. We’ll discuss how to identify the right moments to escalate issues to higher-ups, and I’ll give you practical tips to ensure those conversations are productive and professional.
Effective communication is at the heart of workplace success, and I’ll reflect on a past mistake where a poorly worded comment derailed an important relationship. Together, we’ll unpack how to approach tricky interactions with a problem-solving mindset to strengthen trust and collaboration.
Join me as we build Your Mid-Career GPS. By the end of this episode, you’ll feel more equipped to set healthy boundaries, foster stronger professional relationships, and take control of your career trajectory.
