podcast June 5, 2026


Background
share close

What if the way you communicate your leadership is the very thing holding your career back?

In this kickoff to The Execution Series: Power, Pivot & Purpose, host Deneen L. Garrett is chatting with Tanya Spencer — speaker, founder of FCK Being Stuck Coaching, and the self-proclaimed Master of “Bad-Asshery.” From conflict zones to corporate boardrooms, Tanya has spent decades turning complex power dynamics into practical, actionable visibility.

In this episode, we explore:

  • Why credentials alone aren’t enough — and how to make your value felt by decision-makers
  • The Likability vs. Competence matrix and how to find your power center
  • How to stop doing 200 hours of non-promotable work per year
