Looking for a move upwards but not sure how to get it? Here, company bosses and recently promoted executives offer their advice on climbing the ladder.
In the workplace, going the extra mile will help you stand out from your competitors for a plum job. Keller defines this as demonstrating a passion for quality and pursuing innovative ideas and solutions.
"Does your company have a promotion readiness document that you can review and complete? If so, start there. If not, then try to find the official job posting for the level you're trying to get promoted to. Then start crossing off the skills that you already feel you're strong in, and the skills that are left over are the ones you'll need to focus on to be ready."
She suggests finding out from a trusted mentor which skills are used to evaluate people on the next rung—and then looking for opportunities to demonstrate some of those skills in your job."If at the next level strategy is a big component of success, work with your current leader to find an opportunity to demonstrate this skill in the work you are doing today.
You might have to wait because of a company policy about promotion timings, or because you need a particular professional designation or new skills."Regardless of the reasons, make sure they're clear to you so you can begin working on bridging any gaps. Meet regularly with your mentors and sponsors and make sure they know what your goals are and get their input on the areas you need to work on.
