1 Prepare Thoroughly

Before approaching your boss, arm yourself with a well-prepared plan. Research your idea or request thoroughly to anticipate any questions or concerns they might have. This preparation shows that you're not only passionate but also pragmatic about your proposals. Make sure to outline the benefits, potential challenges, and how they can be addressed. Your boss will appreciate the foresight and effort, which will help build your credibility and make a persuasive case for your ideas.

Prepararse, prepararse, prepararse es la primera, la segunda y la tercera opción, para hablar con el jefe y con lo que sea que queramos hacer en la vida. Más que defenderte a ti mismo y a tus ideas me gusta pensar en vender una idea, al final del día es lo que hacemos, queremos que nos compren lo que ofrecemos, planes, ideas, productos, servicios. Conocer lo que quiere tu jefe será un paso muy importante, lo que necesita y qué solución le voy a aportar con mi idea o propuesta. Previo tendrás que ponerte en su lugar y validar esa idea, tú la comprarías, hacerse esa pregunta es muy importante. Recuerda: Si tú no te compras a ti mismo el resto no lo hará. 1- Conoce a lo que el otro necesit, escucha 2- Cómo le ayudas Los primeros pasos.

2 Timing Matters

Choosing the right moment to advocate for yourself can significantly impact the outcome. Look for a time when your boss is least likely to be distracted or stressed. Consider the company's current situation; if it's undergoing major changes or facing critical deadlines, it might not be the best time for personal requests or new ideas. However, if your proposal aligns with current business goals, it could be an opportune moment to highlight how your idea contributes to the larger picture.

3 Express Confidence

When you speak with your boss, confidence is key. However, there's a fine line between confidence and arrogance. Approach the conversation with a positive attitude and express your ideas assertively, but remain open to feedback. Confidence comes from believing in the value of your ideas and your ability to execute them. This self-assurance can be contagious, making it more likely that your boss will believe in you too.

Expresar confianza tiene que ver con ese proceso de validación previo que hacemos de lo que vamos a ofrecer. En este punto es cuando nos conocemos a nosotros mismos, nuestras fortalezas y aspectos de mejora, con lo cual, con humildad y confianza en lo que hago es lo que te permitirá tener esa mente abierta a la escucha y el feedback de tu jefe. Una vez presentada la propuesta estar atento a lo que plantea al otro desde la empatía. No supongas, no des por sentado, si tienes dudas o crees que no se te ha entendido o quizás se ha malinterpretado lo que propones, pregunta. Preguntas abiertas: - que facilitan la comunicación - promueven el diálogo - facilitan el intercambio de opiniones y puntos de vista. Asegúrate que hay sintonía. -

An expression of confidence doesn't stand strong if it is only an outer layer. Get out a pen and paper, set aside some time, and write out what reasons you have to be confident in all of the relevant areas of your life. As you process through, you will strengthen the reasons you already had, and integrate & internalize reasons you uncover along the way. Confidence isn't to be a mere expression on a superficial layer, but rather a reflection of a strong internal state. It's more important to be very confident in a small number of things, than slightly confident about many. Confidence is a natural expression of that which we are competent at.

4 Listen Actively

Active listening is as important as effective speaking. Pay close attention to your boss's feedback and questions. This demonstrates respect and shows that you value their opinion. By engaging in a two-way conversation, you can better understand their perspective and address any concerns they might have. Remember, advocacy is not just about getting your point across; it's also about building a mutual understanding.

Understanding the needs of your superiors will help you tailor your message and objectives to meet their interests. If your ideas do not meet their needs, solve their pain points, or make their life easier — it may be a great idea, but without room to be implemented. Once you're on the same page as the individual who will be listening to your idea (by your first listening to their situation, needs, and interests), you will be able to more naturally fit your idea into their worldview.

5 Follow Up

After your initial conversation, don't let your ideas fade away. Follow up with an email summarizing the key points discussed and any agreed-upon actions. This not only keeps your proposal on your boss's radar but also provides a written record of the conversation. A follow-up shows that you are serious about your advocacy and helps maintain momentum towards achieving your goals.

6 Adapt and Evolve

Finally, be prepared to adapt your ideas based on the feedback you receive. It's rare for a proposal to be accepted without any modifications. Show that you're flexible and willing to evolve your ideas to fit within the company's needs and constraints. This adaptability not only increases the chances of your ideas being implemented but also demonstrates your collaborative spirit and willingness to work within a team framework.

Para gustos los colores, dicen por ahí. Que tu propuesta no sea aprobada o aceptada, no quiere decir que no sea correcta, no podemos gustar a todos y por supuesto, nuestras ideas tampoco. Tener esa capacidad de aceptación te pone en un muy buen lugar para demostrar esa adaptabilidad y flexibilidad tan necesaria en los entornos actuales. Todo cambia, nosotros cambiamos todo el tiempo, con lo cual mi propuesta en este momento puede no ser la más acertada aunque con ciertos cambios se puede adaptar a lo que necesita tu empresa. Mente abierta, curiosidad para escuchar y aprender de los otros, humor, son algunos facilitadores que te ayudarán en un futuro a poder implantar tus propuestas con éxito. Recuerda: Es un trabajo, no eres tú.
