Welcome to the new manager podcast.
I'm your host, Kim nickel. Hello, and welcome to this bonus
episode of the new manager podcast.
Today, I need to talk to you about the skill of learning how
to ask. Have you heard this quote, you
don't get what you don't ask for.
And it makes sense until you then realize, how do I learn how
to ask for things? Especially if you are an
introvert. If you are conflict or
confrontational avoidant, or if you are a person and you just
does not like asking anyone for anything.
If any of those things are true for you, you are probably under
asking. And I want to teach you about
the Of learning how to ask. I want to teach you about
self-advocacy which is speaking up on behalf of yourself at work
and I've decided I'm going to host a free workshop on this
topic. So go into the show notes, you
will find the Eventbrite link where you can sign up for this.
Now, if you are already on my mailing list, you probably
already saw that. I emailed you about this.
Earlier today. But I know that some of you only
hang out with me here in the land of audio and podcasts, and
I wanted to make sure that you are not left out because I
decided to put this together pretty quickly.
It's come up in a lot of my coaching lately and I see that
so many of you are really interested in the topics around
confidence, how to speak up, how to be assertive?
And they all go together and when you learn how to ask how to
advocate for yourself so many things start to make sense and
become easier, including establishing clear, boundaries
accessing money for professional development.
That might be available to you and you just never thought to
ask it also means you will use your time.
Better. You'll be able to protect your
time. You'll be able to ask for
schedule changes accommodations. And it really is one of those
skills that has so many applications.
And I think we just forget that learning how to ask is a skill,
which means it's something you can get better at.
Even if you're an introvert, you avoid conflict and confrontation
and you're someone who doesn't Like, asking anyone for
anything? We'll talk all about that.
So join the workshop. It is this coming Monday?
It is at 4 p.m. Pacific time, so for some of you
I know that's going to be inconvenient but that's what I
had available. So that's what that's where we
get to meet and hang out. And if you want to get emails
from me in the future, so, you know, when additional workshops
and other kinds, Of things come up, then make sure that you get
on my mailing list. If you don't like email, that's
okay, I'll continue to leave notes for you here on the
podcast. That's it really quick note come
