Hey,

In this week’s episode of The Grant Mitt Podcast (#138), I dive deep into a topic that determines how far you’ll go in business, leadership, and life — Navigating Power Structures & Egos.

Here’s what you’ll learn:

  1. Protect every ego — especially at the top. The higher you go, the more fragile they become. Play the long game: praise publicly, play humble, and earn trust.

  2. Understand loneliness at the top. Titles often isolate people. If you can genuinely support leaders, you’ll gain influence and access.

  3. Align self-interests. Everyone is driven by their own goals — make sure your wins help others win too, or expect resistance.

If you mishandle power, it can quietly destroy your career — but when you learn to navigate it, you can rise faster than anyone around you.
