Case File No. 001
The bit I can't say on camera.
Filed here instead.
Two free tools, straight out of the case file: the Work Wins Template and the One-on-One Meeting Template.
You've seen the pattern. Now here's the paperwork.
Everything I post gets cut down to fit a minute. This is the part that didn't make the edit — the actual documents I'd hand someone if they were sitting across from me instead of scrolling past.
Two files. No charge. Take them before your next review, not after.
Filed by a practising employment lawyer, drawing on years advising both companies and the senior women inside them.
Contents of this case file
Exhibit A — The Work Wins Template
A running record of what you actually did, kept in the language decision-makers respond to — not a diary entry, a document. Built for the six months before the conversation, not the six hours before it.
What it's for: promotion cases, performance reviews, the moment someone asks "so what have you been working on."
Exhibit B — The One-on-One Meeting Template
A structure for the meeting everyone treats as a formality and no one prepares for. Keeps the record straight on what was said, what was agreed, and what quietly got dropped.
What it's for: managing up, protecting yourself on paper, remembering what was actually promised.
No newsletter you didn't ask for. No funnel. Just the two files.
