How One Woman Crushed Her Vice President Interview (and What You Can Learn)

Ep #276: How One Woman Crushed Her Vice President Interview (and What You Can Learn) One of my clients recently sent me a recording of her VP-level interview…and let me tell you, it was a 45-minute masterclass on how to absolutely crush executive-level conversations. This interview was beyond good—it was "smile-ear-to-ear-the-entire-time" phenomenal. So in today's episode of Women Changing Leadership with Stacy Mayer, I'm switching things up. I'm giving you an inside look—a real-life case study—breaking down exactly what made this client's interview so exceptional and how you can use these exact same strategies to knock your next interview out of the park. These aren't your typical interview tips. We're talking mindset shifts, powerful communication strategies, and subtle tweaks that come with huge payoffs. You'll learn exactly what she did—from recording and sharing her interview for direct feedback, to masterfully flipping questions back to her interviewer, to using a brilliant metaphor that had the exec across the table laughing and fully engaged. Whether you're preparing for an interview, promotion discussion, negotiation, or any high-stakes conversation, this episode is packed with the tools you need to show up bigger, bolder, and more badass than ever.
