-
You're operating well above the manager pay grade already, but not recognized or valued accordingly
-
You suspect that you aren't being seen in the right way, because you are rarely invited into the more strategic conversations

You don't have an advocate at work, and you're wondering what's being said about you in those closed-door meetings
-
No one has given you the specific feedback you need, even though you wish they would

Hi - I’m Beth Correll, Founder and Career Strategist at Step Function Coaching. Before starting my coaching practice, I spent my career inside large organizations in roles across supply chain, procurement, and finance leadership. Along the way, I had a front-row seat to how promotion decisions actually happen, and how early senior leaders begin identifying people with Director-level potential. One thing became clear: the professionals who move into leadership roles aren’t just strong performers. They demonstrate certain signals that executives notice long before a promotion discussion begins. Today, I work with ambitious professionals who know they’re capable of more and want to navigate their careers more strategically. Through my coaching and workshops, I help them understand how leadership really evaluates talent and how to start demonstrating the behaviors that open doors to bigger opportunities. For this workshop, I’ve also gathered insights from several C-suite leaders, including CEOs, CFOs, CPO's and CHROs - about the signals they personally look for when deciding who to invest in and develop for future leadership roles. I’m excited to share those insights with you.
