Are you feeling underappreciated for the work you do at your company? Or are you perhaps struggling to compensate your high-performing employee due to budget restrictions? If your answer is yes to either of the two, then grab a pen and paper. Because in this episode, LaShawn talks about the important role leaders play in advocating for their employees and shares some creative ways to do so other than simply asking for a pay increase. Tune in and learn how to make your employees feel valued, or if you are an employee, how to advocate for yourself effectively.

• What can leaders do to make their employees feel valued?
• The consequences of not advocating for your employees.
