How can you build influence, gain recognition, and advance your career while remaining authentic to who you are?

Join Alison Fragale PhD, organizational psychologist, UNC Kenan-Flagler Professor, and bestselling author of Likeable Badass, for a fireside chat on power, status, influence, negotiation , and how people can gain recognition, respect, and opportunities.  Her academic research on status, power, negotiation, and influence have been published in her field's top academic journals as well as national media outlets, including The Wall Street Journal and The New Your Times. 

During the conversation, we may explore:
1.  Building influence through competence and connection.
2.  Communicating your value with impact.
3.  Advocating for yourself and your work.
4.  Navigating workplace challenges and difficult conversations.
