Agency is a great observation. But also bring up these conversations with your direct management so they recognize the work you do. Employees with less responsibilities outside of work (no kids, no families, etc) might appear to be high-agency while in reality being less effective. When a senior eng with perceived "low-agency" suddenly takes a leave, those effects are felt way more than if a "high-agency" junior does. All's this to say, make your impact know with blunt discussions. Don't distract yourself with blog posts and dashboards solely to prove you have impact.
Having conversations with management is beneficial in other ways too. You might think effort A or task B is really important, but your management can feel differently. They have a wider view of the company and might think that project C is really critical.
That's good info to know. If you know, you can advocate for A and B, or shift focus to C.
