Tips on Gaining Faster Promotion At Work

For many they could work years in an organization and find they are still stuck in a particular position. In the private sector where promotions are not seen as entitlements you would have to do more than the usual worker to get the raise in both position and remuneration you desire on a more regular basis.

If you need faster growth up the career ladder at your organization you need to take matters a little more in your hands and do some innovative things.

Make Sure Your Work is Measurable

When your work has indices by which your performance can be measured it will make it easier for assessment. In your weekly summary reports you can put up data that conveys clearly the impact and level of the work you have done.

Keep Your Work Visible

Following on from the above advice it could make a difference if you make subtle efforts to ensure that your bosses see your work and feel its impact. You could work your ass off but when the people that matter in your organization do not know it’s as good as you do little or no work.

Create and send weekly or monthly (whichever sounds better) situation reports to your immediate and higher level bosses. The key is to make the reports look purely informational (no hyping and unnecessary over bloating of your achievements). Always send feedback to your bosses on assignments completed.

Work as Hard as You Can

If you are new in a place one of the surest ways to cement your value and rise up the ladder is to put in your very best from the onset. Be the first to get in the office and one of the last to leave. Your boss will certainly notice your eagerness and enthusiasm. For the career person that seeks to gain promotions there is no substitute for hard work.
