Career Advancement
“What got you here won’t get you there.” (Goldsmith, M.)
Career Advancement requires more than just doing a good job in your current role. You have to acquire new skills and broaden your perspective in order to be ready to advance to a bigger or broader job. Clearly different roles require different skills, but some apply to almost all jobs. Part of the challenge is that the world is changing at a drastically more rapid pace than ever before. Because of that people have to become adept at constantly learning and adapting.
To be more promotable, enhance your skills in:
- Thinking strategically
- Complex decision making
- Influencing
- Working across functional lines
- Managing conflict
- Effectively communicating your thoughts and listening to others
- Disagreeing constructively
- Managing your emotions
- Managing change
On occasion, advancement stalls because of a perception issue. If you are perceived negatively for one reason or another, you are likely to need help to get past it. Individual coaching can help you change negative perceptions and rebuild your reputation. As you demonstrate your value to the organization, you will become more promotable.
