Job Promotion And How To Stand Out From Your Colleagues

Monday, November 9, 2009 | comments

Getting a job promotion at work can be complex but still very simple. The problem occurs when you do not take decisive measures to get the attention of your boss. On the other hand, if you are a boss, it is imperative to look into your relationship with your subordinates so as not to affect your career development.



As a boss avoid being too much of a manager since this will make you lose support from your juniors staff. Also, do not become too close to your subordinates to the point that they consider you as a comrade. Rather, let there be boundaries and your junior staff to realize that they should not cross it. Though it is difficult, try to balance the two extremes and your subordinates will not only perform, but when asked they will say that you have been a fair manager hence propel you up the corporate ladder.



No matter your position, increasing your visibility will help you get noticed easily whenever there is a job promotion. Avail yourself every time there are calls for people to lead key assignments and initiatives especially the ones that others are running away from. This usually proves your leadership qualities and that you take ownership when called upon.



When it comes to career development, having a mentor is crucial but do not limit yourself to just one adviser. It is advisable to have a few informal mentors that you look up to and trust their judgment. Each one of them should positively impact in you differently in regard to your career. The range should be unlimited, from your boss, colleagues or even your juniors.
