Choosing Well, Saying Yes, and Owning Your Growth

Eve Moore approaches big decisions with a simple test:  she asks what the worst and best outcomes could be, and whether she will regret not doing it five years from now.  She also points to AI as a way to return time to leaders. She reaches out to former colleagues with thank-you calls and texts, and she seeks out people focused on what is going well at conferences.  She also uses the Superpower Pose before high-stakes moments.

Closing Reflection

Eve's advice shows that careers grow through intentional choices.  Choose the people you work with carefully, and say yes before you feel fully ready.  Take responsibility for building the skills you need, and weigh every risk against what you stand to learn.  Ask yourself whether you have given your team what they deserve.  Look back on your body of work and feel proud of what you delivered.
