Introduction:
Most everyone is familiar with the “glass ceiling”. However, what if there is another ceiling that is even less understood and based on biases so deeply ingrained in our psyche that it is invisible even to those who maintain its existence?
That ceiling is the “sociability ceiling” and understanding how and why it operates is critical not just for those seeking career advancement, but also for leaders who continue to look externally for talent to fill their leadership pipelines when, with targeted training, can be found inside their own teams and companies.
The ceiling operates from the bottom up and top down. We all share responsibility for it remaining in place. As a professional seeking career advancement or an executive wanting to develop a strong internal leadership pipeline, there are simple strategies to dismantling it. The impact of doing so can be seen and felt throughout the organization – improved employee engagement, higher trust in leadership, better retention, organizational resilience and grit, and in an improved bottom line – either in one’s paycheck or corporate results.
Your first step takes just 20 minutes.
