Some of these tips sound obvious. But, often, it is the simple things that work.
Be super clear on what you want in your career.
Setting a timeframe will push you to take action.
Don´t settle for a below-market value rise when you get promoted. Ask for the market rate.
Your CV needs to be a living document, which you update several times a year.
Capture data that showcases your achievements and add that evidence to your CV.
Network externally as well as internally. Be proactive, and constantly nurture your network.
Turn internal decision-makers into fans of you. Volunteer for projects.
Every quarter, discuss your next career step with your manager.
Most senior managers want to pass on the baton, to help people to progress. So, finding a sponsor is rarely difficult.
Public speaking and becoming the go-to person for certain issues are powerful ways to boost your profile and networking.
Post valuable information on social media.
Get yourself a mentor. Do this regardless of how senior you are.
Make it clear that you are ready to be promoted.
