Challenge:
Wants to go for the promotion but feels uncertain and hesitant to step out of her comfort zone.
Background
Kerrie (not her real name) has been a manager for less than 2 years and wants to move up to Senior Manager. She is well liked but does not usually speak up and is “afraid to rock the boat,” by making her desires known.
Planning is Key
Most people do not plan. And this includes planning their career. This time spent on thinking through your career steps can mean the difference between a retirement that carries you through your life comfortably or not.
Even if you stumbled into your current job or you feel like you are “past that,” it is never too late to plan your next career move. In fact, it is essential you think about your next move and be intentional in your actions.
