Say It Skillfully® is a show that helps you to benefit from Molly Tschang’s expert guidance on the best possible ways to speak your mind at work in a positive and productive manner. Episode 194 features callers earlier in their professional careers and what’s top of mind for them.

My first caller, Henry, is right out of college and into his first ever full-time job! He’s wondering about approaching superiors and peers, how to bring up new ideas, find ways to shine and add in a meaningful way to the culture. Hear the incredible maturity of someone new to the workforce (and enjoy a hit of optimism for the future of work). Henry also shares tips for how organizations ensure they don’t miss out on top talent!


Then Robert, who’s been working about nine years, opens up about leaving a company when he realized he wasn’t perceived or treated the way he wanted to be (after attempting to turn things around). Should he have tried harder to change groups vs. change jobs? Did he leave in the right way? We revisit his experience and talk about what he might have considered and what to take into his new role (26:45 ).


Tune in and hear what’s top of mind for early-in-career professionals—learn how to navigate work while being invaluable and true to yourself.
