Love all these tips. I used to be very nervous talking to C-suite. I knew they were busy and that I needed to make my meetings with them effective because they will be short and often rare. I noticed that because of their lack of time, they tend to prefer meetings that: 1. Move the needle; 2. Benefit from their attention; - I wish you had mentioned here the value of reports. One sheets saved my life in the past. 3. Build relationships with trusted individuals - which goes back to your point on building rapport. Over time, I learn to focus on the relevant information that is not to macro or to micro, but just the key data points they need and I will bring key questions that I need them to answer. I think using dashboards like the ones Hive provides was definitely a gamechanger in the way I approach my analytics and reporting skills with execs. This could be another great point to one of your videos! Whatever you do, just keep them coming. Really good content here!

I would add the higher the person is, the less patience they have for less than succinct communication. They generally value you less as a person and more as a commodity that's either going to add value or not. There's a certain amount of ruthlessness it takes to get up there

[@fineweather4569]

They’re not really ‘higher’ at all. Spiritually and emotionally, they are ‘less than’, just narcissists focused on the delusion of climbing a ladder that doesn’t really lead anywhere. Their lives are all about the ‘bottom line’. Corporations are pits that destroy the soul.

[@davidk4682]

Excellent video & content. Thank you!!

[@hydrantinco]

Mary thank you so much for these videos. They are so perfect.

[@ExplearningCo]

[@Amit.Pustake]

Excellent

[@namitashah8274]

Thanks for listing all what’s but how factor is still difficult.. can you please share how to best make all these things happen?

[@bobfuller5991]

all valid and true points, but all also pretty much common sense.

[@alanakarmiol5768]

Do you have any tips for getting employees to exemplify this for a smaller business? I bend over backwards but... that's a long story.

[@simonxuan]

Aman to that!

[@BlackSaintNiks]

I've done all of this and contact/employment was still ended due to cheap companies not having enough money to keep me. Some times it's the Race Pill but overall during these bad economic times a lot of peopel with these C-suite are still let go.

[@anthonyharmon9265]

Agree...black privilege is real and toxic. The racism needs to be addressed, DEI hiring is killing qualified candidates

[@sunvaj6754]

What would you do when your executive director pays no attention to you? She just ignore you for whatever you say. She oftens put you down and harass you.

[@mandeepbedi4339]

I have seen clowns like that a couple times. Unfortunately you are better off working towards finding a new gig than trying to impress an insecure jerk.

[@anthonyharmon9265]

Punch her in her mouth! That corrects an attitude quickly!

[@Adbee123]

Yup, I agree or change business organization within the company.

[@alexkulla4106]

Oh dear…
