Don’t let your work speak for itself—start building your visibility by advocating for yourself. At [ Ссылка ], hire Joel for a inspirational speech or corporate training on this topic: “The Invisible Leaders: How to Find Them and Make Them Shine.”
After a certain point in your career, you can’t let your hard work speak for itself. Instead, you need to take action to get noticed:
• Promote your work
• Make your voice heard
• Share your great ideas.
One client, Judy, received three promotions in five years, and then none at all for the next four years. Why? It didn’t make sense to her. She’d been getting excellent performance reviews and ratings. Why wasn’t that enough to take her to the next level?
A careful review of her performance over the last four years revealed that she’d been letting her work speak for itself. That had worked up to a certain point in her career, but not at all after that. Now she needed to learn to self-advocate, promoting her own accomplishments and gaining more visibility. And that’s exactly what she began to do.
Instead of sitting on the sidelines and taking careful notes, she started to show up at meetings with a much more decisive, clear stance, voicing her own ideas with confidence. As a result, others began looking to her as a leader. In turn, her confidence grew. When she heard her company’s CEO saying that she wanted to see innovation and new ideas, she got straight to work. Over the next month, she generated exciting new ideas. She then brought them to the CEO, who said they were exactly what she’d been looking for. At a meeting of over 200 senior leaders, the CEO told them all about Judy’s great ideas, presenting her as a model for others. Other senior executives began messaging her, commenting on her wonderful ideas. Raising her visibility and taking initiative had benefited everyone.
Like Judy, stop letting your work speak for itself and start getting proactive about promoting yourself. You’ll be doing everyone a favor—your boss, senior leaders, and your whole company.
