The real power comes when principles work together:
Visibility + Communication: Your ideas get heard and remembered Communication + Boundaries: Your no carries weight Boundaries + Alliances: Your network respects your value Alliances + Confidence: Your presence attracts opportunity Confidence + Visibility: Your leadership becomes magnetic
Watch how Jennifer combined all five:
She was asked to lead a failing project with an impossible deadline. Old Jennifer would have said yes immediately, worked herself to exhaustion, and hoped for recognition.
Integrated Jennifer: 1. Confidence: Paused, maintained eye contact 2. Communication: "This project has potential. Let me understand the real constraints." 3. Boundaries: "If I take this, I'll need to delegate my current projects. Are we aligned on priorities?" 4. Visibility: "I'll need a small team and direct access to stakeholders." 5. Alliances: "I'd like to bring in Jenny from Finance and David from Engineering."
She turned a hospital pass into a career-defining win—not through heroics, but through integrated power principles.
