The Silent Engine: Why Your Most Impactful Women Are Hiding in Plain Sight
HI The million-dollar cost of the loudest voice in the room I recently sat in a board meeting and watched something fascinating—and a little bit dangerous. For forty minutes, one person dominated the room. They had the "presence," the volume, and the confidence. But in the corner, a woman sat quietly, observing. When she finally spoke, she didn't just join the conversation—she dismantled a structural risk the rest of us had missed. In three minutes, her "quiet impact" saved the project millions. It made me think: How many "Silent Engines" are currently sitting in your meetings, unheard? I’ve just published a new article exploring why we consistently mistake volume for value, and the devastating "Potential vs. Proof" gap that keeps our most impactful women from the leadership table. In this piece, I share: The cautionary tale of a "loud" executive whose ego-driven projects cost an organization millions. The Q.U.I.E.T. Framework to help you identify high-performers who don't shout about their wins. A downloadable Interview Guide to help you bypass charisma and hire for true competence. You can read the article here. I’d love to hear your thoughts—have you ever seen a "Silent Engine" save the day? Best wishes Liz P.S. I’ve included a 1-page "Quiet Impact" Interview Guide in the post. It’s a game-changer for your next hiring round!
