I review this video in prep for meeting one on one with senior company leadership. A real boon. Thank you for compiling this and giving to the community
Thanks! Having the first skip-level meeting of my 20+ year career.
I wanna point out that group skip levels are the most moronic things ever. You can't say any feedback because someone else might take it the wrong way and bring gossip to direct leadership. People don't feel comfortable speaking, and at the very least they feel like they're taking time from someone else for issues that might affect them only. Skip levels are done to enhance and encourage conversations and feedback, not just waste time into whatever topic of conversation you feel like talking.
This is incredibly helpful.
This is really helpful

Quire clear and precise ! indeed insightful.
Thank You, you have some great tips on using Primacy, Recency, and Habits in Present Tense that I will use in my upcoming performance review.
Good luck with your review!
Awesomely articulated video. Thank you so much.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great video! I searched this topic on KZread and most of the higher-ranking videos weren’t as helpful or actionable. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you! I'm glad you found it useful!
Thank you, for this video and yes manager's don't have time to baby sit you.
Well, even if they did, taking control and understanding what you want and should be doing is going to help you develope a lot further in your career
Thank you for your perspective on quiet quitting.
thank you!
Hi, Do u need attractive KZread thumbnail designer?
Incredible, really insightful!
Thank you I can very much relate to almost everything you said! Been there done that and arrived at a very similar system. I think an important point that is only implied with the use of a check cadence is: Unless your job is answering emails, DO NOT make your email client ping you, if you get a new email right away. My advice would be to have the mentioned cadence for checking for new mails and not have it notify you at all. If you think you need the reminder once in a while you can set most email clients to only notify/pull emails every x minutes/hours. I also have a kind of email you didn’t mention: digests. For example I am not interested in getting an email for every chat message I get, but if I missed messages for more than 8h I want to know that. This might also be applicable to Jira and other tool. These are usually okay to delete, like other Jira notifications.
Thank you, this is very true! I have to admit I don't have an email client anymore - I just use the web based portal nowadays but not being pinged is a vital part of the process! Also good point on the digests!
@@TheCorporateEtiquette I use the web client most of the time as well. Not enabling push was a conscious decision, switching to web only wasn't, but it works out nicely.
Great video! Have a skip level meeting in an hour!
You got this!
How was your skip level meeting?
Dear Laura, I love your videos since day 1. But please never again add music like this - I can't follow your words 😞
Thank you, Marc, for the feedback on the editing! I will keep this in mind for the next video!
Amazing advice and a topic that is never discuss at lengths. People never want to ask for help. And managers don't even know what's part of their job.
So true! This should be part of the every manager's training in my opinion and they should go out of their way to explain to their direct reports HOW and WHEN to ask for help.
great video! thanks for the tips!
I'm so glad you liked it!
This is great video 👍
Thank you Pavlo 💕
Happened to me and it's super frustrating. Thanks for the video!
Sorry this happened to you!
Love it
Thank you!
Great content! Helpful, thought out, clearly communicated. Keep it up! THANK YOU for making this!
thank you, Kris, for you kind comment <3
I'm not called John Doe, nevertheless giving the thumb up because your videos are great. 😉
haha Thank you Jonas! 😍
I feel like some of the questions will get very unsatisfying answers for jobs with consulting work. I had this in multiple interviews where people only spoke for their past and current customers and projects. They work alone with the customer - maybe w/ one more colleague - and the lines can blur between what is customer company culture is like and what is the actual of the company. Asking for objectives can yield answers like "we do what makes the customer happy" or "it depends on the project". I think, in these cases it might be best to find out how they deal with conflict and negative experiences in projects, assignment of projects and everything around the customer rather then the work at the customer - even if this type of work will take a bigger part the the stuff around. Definitely not an expert on this (yet). But maybe a topic for another video. Thank you for this one!
Thank you for the insight! It's true, consulting work can be quite different both in expectations and in culture since as you say, it's more about the client than the company itself.
you forgot to mention cat expenses as non-negotiable :P
For real, feeding two fluffs is expensive in this economy
For my final question I always like to ask if there is anything that they have concerns with regarding my my experience etc that I can address before leaving so I can tackle anything like that head on
Always a great closing question
You gave a new perspective of why you should have a meeting. More than 3 emails, a meeting and then the meeting to precede with a clear agenda!. Awesome articulation!
Thank you Vijay!
There's nothing better than putting in a resignation for a job that's been sucking the life out of you
AMIN sister!
Great video and a fresh perspective on choosing a career! As someone who works with computers all day and enjoys woodworking as a hobby, it was spot on - if I had to earn my money from woodworking I would most likely not enjoy it as much.
But what if I want the criminal record for my street cred?
Then DM me for more personalized advice! :D
So great! "Should this meeting have been an email?" Also the bloopers... fantastic :)
lil kitty always happy to make an appearance
Insurances usually apply the 'Freework' tactic. Try to squeeze as much out of your network before they even hired you. Also, some software development companies dangle the 'right reasons' over and over, just so they can give you a lower pay.
Very common to see "right reasons" used to try to get you to accept lower pay, lower positions etc. It makes my blood boil that companies use it!
I want to see the full rant unedited 😂
Hahaha I might just post it at one point
Interview practice is so important! And you never know if you'll stumble upon a huge salary/benefits increase in the meantime
Interviewing is one of the most likely skills to increase your comp & grow your career! Love this advice.
