Ep#5 - What should I do if I don't get the promotion I wanted
Manage episode 398441724 series 3528403
This discussion focuses on how to navigate career setbacks, specifically not getting the promotion you’d been hoping for. I discuss our primal need not to be rejected and its impact in this type of situation. There are also effective strategies for handling these situations, like preparing for potential outcomes and being strategic about responses. I also suggest ways to handle feedback to ensure growth. Maintaining a professional demeanour around the office and seeking follow-up meetings for continued discussions and potential resources are also emphasised. Lastly, advice is given on keeping career options open and persevering through disappointment.
