3 Reasons You Are Not Getting Promoted - CareerEnlightenment.com

2) Lack of career strategy.  Have you ever  worked in an organization which didn’t have a strategy? Very unlikely. Organization without a strategy is like a ship without a compass. And the same applies to your career. If you don’t have a career strategy, you will only get to experience your career, as opposed to accelerate it. Unfortunately, most of the people don’t have any career acceleration strategy whatsoever or, their strategy is based on a traditional (read: generic and rehashed) career advice such as “I need to put myself out there more” or “I need to network more” or “I need to work harder.”3) No systems  to execute that strategy. As the old saying goes, ‘out of sight, out of mind.’ There result of this  is that everything else gets more priority than your career. Every new email, every new idea of your boss, every new little project…they all start getting more priority and soon you find your self working harder but getting only an average grade at y our yearly performance review…while someone else gets promoted.The way to tackle this is to pay attention to your career acceleration every day. Block 5-10min in your calendar daily. You will use this short time to look at your one-page strategy document and decide on one thing you will focus on today, that will get you closer to your next role.In this way, you prioritize your career first, and only then millions of tasks that easily fill up your day. Every day you will feel one step closer to a job promotion and that you have control over your career.If youre interested to see the whole webinar, you can watch it  here.
