The Key to Getting Your Next Promotion

Are you willing to do the work?

As you move up the “ranks” in leadership.

And you’re striving for that next promotion.

It’s easy to stop doing the work.

To get complacent.

To:

- Rely on your past success: Relying on your past accomplishments as a substitute for ongoing effort and innovation, rather than continuously striving for new heights.
- Staying within’ your comfort zone, shying away from taking risks or exploring possibilities.
- Become resistant to feedback, unwilling to acknowledge areas for improvement, or take action based on feedback received from your team members or peers.

You’ve got this far didn’t you?

All while neglecting the pursuit of continuous improvement. Looking in the mirror, assessing areas of development.

That may work.

Short term.

But it isn’t a long-term strategy.

Not if you REALLY want to achieve that next level in your career.

If you want to hit new heights it requires you to:

- Push yourself outside your comfort zone - seeking out growth and development
- Embrace new challenges - stretching your abilities and development
- Seek out feedback - proactively seeking out constructive criticism or areas for growth
- Self Reflect - asking yourself the same questions you’d ask of your team
- Have a growth mindset - knowing there’s always room for growth
- Look for inspiration and purpose - have a clear vision and purpose behind that vision
- Accept accountability from others - being willing to admit your mistakes or shortfallings

What got you here, won’t get you there.

What are you willing to do to get there?
