Скачать или смотреть How to Grow in Your Career When You Don’t Feel Ready | Lisa Zaythik | From a Woman to a Leader

You don’t need more confidence to grow your career.
You need to stop waiting to feel ready.

If you’re a high-performing woman in tech who keeps thinking,
“I’ll apply when I feel more confident,”
this episode will shift how you think about leadership and career growth.

In this conversation, I sit down with Lisa Zaythik, founding partner at AppsFlyer and Executive Chief of Staff at a global tech company of 1,300 employees. Lisa has transitioned across marketing, operations, HR, and the CEO office, often stepping into roles she had never done before.

Instead of chasing confidence, she focused on creating impact.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• How to grow in leadership when you don’t feel ready
• How to identify the value you bring to your organization
• How to know when it’s time to move roles or leave
• The difference between assertiveness and aggression in executive rooms
• How to build confidence through discomfort and action

If you are competent, over-responsible, and quietly frustrated that your work isn’t translating into growth, this episode is for you.

Confidence doesn’t come first. Action does.
