How to Run a Career Autopsy After a Missed Promotion
from Career Compass with Fexingo: Daily Career Advice, Job Search Tips, and Professional Growth · host Fexingo
When you're passed over for a promotion, it's tempting to either spiral or shrug it off. But there's a smarter middle path: the career autopsy. In this episode, Lucas and Luna break down how to conduct a structured, evidence-based review of a missed promotion—shifting from 'why me?' to 'what next?' They walk through the three autopsy phases: data collection, pattern analysis, and decision framing. You'll learn how to gather feedback from multiple sources, separate fixable gaps from structural dead ends, and decide whether to stay, skill up, or move on. Real talk on why most people skip the autopsy and settle for a shallow narrative, and how a 72-hour rule forces clarity before emotion fades. Whether you're mid-career or just starting out, this episode gives you a practical tool to turn disappointment into a strategic career move. #CareerAutopsy #MissedPromotion #CareerAdvice #JobSearch #ProfessionalGrowth #CareerStrategy #Feedback #PerformanceReview #CareerDevelopment #Workplace #Leadership #Careers #Business #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #CareerCompass #CareerPivot #SelfImprovement Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
