Stars are driven by significance.
They want to feel seen, valued, and recognized for who they are and the impact they make.
For them, a decision has to feel meaningful, not just technically correct.
One thing to avoid is leading with data alone. Stars need more than a good recommendation. They need to feel like it reflects them.
Acknowledging visibility, reputation, and legacy goes a long way.
Language like, "This decision reflects who you are and the standard you've set," tends to land well.
When Stars feel genuinely recognized, they become some of the most engaged people you'll work with.
