Courtney O'Connell - Invidious

Courtney O'Connell

Career advancement, executive presence, and leadership advice from a former Fortune 500 SVP and Head of HR...this channel is for corporate professionals who want to get promoted without burnout or more hustle.

I'm Courtney O'Connell. I spent 20+ years inside corporate leadership, including a decade as SVP and Head of HR, sitting in the rooms where promotion and succession decisions were actually made. Today I teach what most leaders are never told: how promotion decisions really happen and how to work the system without losing yourself in the process.

🎙️ I also host Inside the Promotion Room, a weekly career and leadership podcast featuring honest conversations with senior executives about the real stories behind their promotions.

Stick around and you'll learn how to take control of your career and get promoted faster.

New podcast episodes weekly on career advancement, executive presence, workplace politics, leadership mindset, and promotion strategy.

I'll see you in the room.
