Behind My Work

The science of career momentum.

I didn’t build my practice solely from intuition. These are some of the findings that shape it — and that explain why so many talented professionals hit a ceiling that has nothing to do with their ability.

What we know about careers, leadership, and why even the best people get stuck.

The visibility gap

You can deliver and still be underestimated. Here's why.

The self-awareness paradox

95% think they're self-aware. Around 10–15% are.

Your most accessible value multipler

Your strengths are your unfair advantage, but 4 of 5 people don't treat them that way.

Communication, influence, and EQ

Your performance gets you in the room. Your EQ determines what you leave the room with.

The leadership leap

Up to 46% of leadership transitions fail within two years — and it's almost never about skills.

The first 90 days

Your first 90 days set your trajectory, not just your onboarding.

The negotiation gap

Most professionals never negotiate — and it shapes more than their salary.

Authenticity: a double-edge

There's a version of authenticity that lifts careers, and another that holds them back.

Working across worlds

Cultural intelligence and async communication are core career skills, not just nice-to-haves.

AI and the world of work

AI is changing work, but it won't replace the people who are well-positioned.

The skills that protect your career aren't the ones AI can automate. Sort each card intuitively to assess where you're at.

Shira uses research-backed methods to make strengths actionable — not hypothetical or vague.

I had several personal conversations with Shira, and participated in a workshop she did for one of the professional organizations I'm part of. Highly recommend Shira both for personal professional growth guidance and for managers who want to better understand and appreciate their team members and help them grow — as well as to become a better manager themselves.
