Episode #94 Are You Ready To Progress?

The question I want to ask you today is, are you ready to progress? It's not enough to have a strategy to progress. You also need to be READY to progress. Here's how you know you're ready: You balance your time, making time for the other things that matter, meaning you prioritise your self care and you take care of your personal relationships. You handle your day job with calm and ease. Even in the face of tough deadline, even when the unexpected happens. You have confidence in who you are, so you aren't dependent on external validation to know you're good at what you do and you don't make negative feedback mean something negative about you You feel supported, personally as well as professionally, meaning there are people who've got your back and want to see you succeed. Balance. Ease. Confidence. Support. These are the 4 Progression Pillars and, although they are not the core of your progression strategy, they ARE an essential part of it. The 4 Progression Pillars don't just support you to progress to the next level. They help you succeed there and sustain you when you get there so you're much more likely to stay there. One of the common mistakes I see on the road to partnership or other promotion is going for the goal and sacrificing everything else on the way. This is not a clever strategy and neither is it a winning one. Ignoring the 4 pillars while you go for promotion has a cost. It's like pressing the accelerator and the break at the same time - it slows you down, creates friction along the way so everything is harder and reduces your chance of getting there. Today's episode is going to change all of that. In it I explain what it means to be ready to progress and I walk you through what's required. Want to know if you're ready to progress?
