2. (Cont'd) It's in all managers' interest to have people promoted who are already performing at the next level. Makes the manager look good! You're on the same team.
3. Be realistic about what it takes to be promoted above the senior levels. These are usually far more difficult.
4. Set goals to "close the gap" that you have compared to the next level. Act like you would like if you had the title. Keep a work log.
5. Find a mentor within the company. Ask for regular feedback.
6. Don't "blindly chase" the promotion, alienating others. Stay grounded, but put in the work.
7. Don't have promotion be your only goal. Aim for professional growth, over chasing titles.
