Episode Summary Ever walked out of a meeting feeling like something didn't land — even though you were prepared, accurate, and thorough? In this episode, we break down why high-performing women keep answering the wrong question in executive conversations, and what to do about it.

Key Takeaways

  • When leadership asks "What do you think?" they're not asking for more analysis — they're asking for your recommendation.
  • Most professionals hear questions literally, but executives communicate strategically, compressing bigger asks into smaller questions.
  • If you can't hear the translation between what's asked and what's meant, you'll keep over-explaining while someone else gets the opportunity.
  • The pushback, the rephrased questions, the follow-ups — those are redirects, not requests for more information.
  • This isn't about fixing how you sound. It's about learning how leadership actually communicates and what they're listening for.
