FOUNDATION 03

Map your influence.

"Stop hoping the right people just notice."

Visibility isn't a personality trait. It's a network. Map who already advocates for you, who could, and who has the leverage you need. Your career stops feeling like luck.

The Arc

From pain to move, on rails.

Every Foundation works the same way. Name what is actually happening. See it differently. Take one move that puts you on better ground.

01 · Pain

You're invisible to the rooms where decisions actually happen.

You hear about the promotion after it's decided. The right name on the right Slack channel could have changed it.

02 · Reframe

Influence is a map, not a mystery.

Champions, sponsors, peers, gatekeepers. Most people have one of each within three degrees. You just haven't drawn the map yet.

03 · Move

Name your three champions.

Three people who reshape your story for rooms you're not in. Write the names. If you can't, that's the move. Build one this quarter.
