Why accomplishments alone won't earn you a promotion:
If you’re on the promotion track, you’ve likely already been told some things that will be expected of you in your new role. But don’t stop with that short list of obvious skills.
It can be enlightening, even surprising, to talk to people already working in comparable roles, both inside and outside your organization, to find out what new skills they’ve needed to develop. Use this conversation to push past those obvious answers and dig into the unexpected aspects of the job and how you can best equip yourself. When you’re an individual contributor, growing in your job is all about gaining new hard skills and developing a deeper expertise in your chosen area.
Human skills are important to everyone but become even more important when you transition into management. Yet many organizations wait until an employee reaches management to offer support developing these skills, if they do anything at all. By that point, it’s too late.. You’ll need to develop emotional intelligence, understand how to give effective feedback, learn to make difficult decisions, and much, much more.
Therefore, you might have to be a little more deliberate in calling attention to your human skills. At my company, we’re lucky to have an internal website where people give kudos to their coworkers on a regular basis. Relationship-building is another important human skill, and this is where you can bring it into play: by finding sponsors in your organization who will speak up on your behalf and make sure the right people are aware of your talents.
Upskilling is obviously a critical component of becoming promotion-ready, but that’s just the beginning. In fact, lifelong learning will be the fuel for all of your future career growth.
