Have you been feeling like you are stuck in a rut and have been looking at reasons why you are where you are?
Don’t ask your employer why you are not promoted. Ask the person who really knows best — yourself
There is only one person who is in charge of your career progression, and that person is you.
Lee Iacocca is said to have written his entire career plan on the back of a business card. On it were the promotions he expected to earn and the dates he expected to receive them -- until he was named CEO of the company. Successful people know that they must create their own opportunities and be ready for them when they arrive.
Some organizations have clearly defined career paths while others are more informal in their approach, but if you study the senior people in the company, you can quickly identify the kind of education and experience you need to advance. If you are with the right company, one that excites and enthuses you, identify the career moves you’d like to make and get to work making yourself qualified for the job you want.
Take stock of where you are now and identify what the next step for you this week will be. The boss isn't going to give you a pay increase if you haven't become more valuable to him. What will you do today, this week that will move you one step closer?
