LEAKED
Level 1 • Cheat Code #03
Build an Executive Network That Opens Doors
It's not about who likes you. It's about who can move sh*t.
THE PROBLEM
Your "network" is busy complaining about their lives instead of generating opportunities that help you advance.
THE CHEAT CODE
An executive network isn't built from "We had a nice chat." It's built from strategic alignment:
- They bring clarity, not chaos.
- Being connected to them moves your work forward.
- They're building toward the same horizon you are.
Your network should feel like a circle of momentum, not a collection of obligations.
⚡ WHAT TO DO RIGHT NOW
In the box below, list 2–3 leaders whose goals overlap with your strengths.
Not "nice people." Strategic people.
- Look up what they're building or fixing.
- Map exactly how your work supports it.
- Reach out and keep it clean:

THE TRAP
Thinking being "well-liked" is the same as being "well-positioned." It's not.
Your group chat cannot get you promoted.
YOUR SHADOW WORK
Write your reflections in the box below.
- Who taught you that asking is "being a bother"?
- What has your heroic independence cost you in access?
- Which door would you walk through… if you stopped pretending you didn't see it?
THE STRATEGIC TRUTH
Big opportunities don't show up on job boards.
They show up in backchannel conversations the ones that start with:
"Who do we know who can handle this?"
If your name isn't in the mix, it's a signal that your circle needs recalibration.
Write your script
An executive network isn't built from "We had a nice chat." It's built from strategic alignment:
EXAMPLE:
"I've been following your work and realized we're solving similar problems. I'd love to exchange insights — I think we can help each other."
