Secrets Your Boss Won’t Tell You—But You Need to Know
Promotions aren’t simply about checking off a list of boxes
Promotions—getting one, being denied one, or working towards one—are one of the trickiest things for employees to navigate (зд. преодолеть, справиться). But while you may think you’re a shoe-in (наилучший кандидат) for that managerial role, you aren’t the best judge of your own work. Employees need to understand that growth takes time. Usually employees, particularly younger ones, want to move up the ranks quickly and the reality is, experience matters. You may be great at your current role and get glowing reviews but that doesn’t mean you’re ready for that promotion. Get that experience, learn and grow and then talk to your boss about moving up.
You get what you give
Jobs aren’t always fair but it’s fair to assume that if you are only giving 50 percent of your best effort then you won’t be rewarded fully. Passion and grit (смелость, настойчивость) are high commodities these days and fewer and fewer employees have it. Look at this job as more than a paycheck and your boss will look at you as more than just another employee.
