3 Reasons Why Emphasizing Your Commitment To Growth Won’t Get You Promoted

Ep #237: 3 Reasons Why Emphasizing Your Commitment To Growth Won’t Get You PromotedThere is a popular career advancement technique that is holding a lot of women back from getting the promotions they deserve. And I know many women are unfortunately still falling into this trap because three women in the past week alone have told me they’ve been using this technique in their recent job interviews. This technique seems like a golden ticket…but it’s not. That technique is: Using your commitment to personal growth as a selling point for why you should be promoted or hired. Your personal growth is crucial for your self-motivation and resilience. It helps you do hard things and push past your comfort zone.  But here's the kicker: Hiring managers and bosses don’t value your personal growth the same way you do. And they also don’t see it as a reason to promote or hire you, either. In this episode of Women Changing Leadership with Stacy Mayer, I’m breaking down the three key reasons why relying on your personal growth as a selling point is a bad strategy AND what to say instead so others immediately understand the value you bring to the leadership table.Unlock the missing piece in your leadership development.
