When you get the promotion that you want, you feel like your works are being appreciated as well as your existence. But this is not easy and is not happening instantly. Promotion is earned because of hardwork and dedication. However, there are factors that keeps you from promotion.
What are these factors? Female Network shares the 5 reasons why you are not still promoted until now:
1. You Haven't Done Much Yet
The time that you stayed in the company will not determine your promotion; it is within the work that you've done whether you are already years on the company or not. Time does not define you work, your works will define you. Ask yourself if what have you done, or is your work really enough to get the promotion that you deserve.
2. You Have To Develop The Soft Skills For The Position
Being good in certain things is great, but being responsible in the things that you are good of is beyond great. If you are achieved the things that you really need to do in a certain time, that means your skills and your ability to be responsible are enough to get the promotion.
3. You Are Not Proactive Enough
Doing your job that beyond your boss' expectation, means proving that you are worthy of the promotion. Keeping passive and not sharing thoughts will lead you nowhere. But when you make a contribution in meeting, you are already making a step towards your promotion.
4. You Are Easily Hurt By Negative Feedback
You are afraid to receive negative feedbacks and negative criticisms. You never listen and always defend yourself when you did something wrong. But when you accept these feedbacks and constructive criticisms, it only means that you welcome the improvements in your life.
5. You Are In The Wrong Company
Sometimes, it is not enough if you did a lot of things; it is also important if you know where you want to be. Being with the wrong company or wrong field of work will likely to lead you in making bad decisions and may affect your work. If you think that you are not getting your promotion in your company, then, it's time to move forward and be with the place that you think that you deserve.
