How to get a promotion // Which of the key traits are you going to develop to get your next promotion?

[@sooyeong723]

Linda Raynier hi Linda, just wanna to say thank you so much for your sharing. I love your content and insights. Cheers

[@stevestone2900]

Linda Raynier The way you explain Traits 2&5 is amazing. I was working on those already, but you made it easy and smooth to master those. I’m going to be Professional and gain more friends at the work environment at the same time. And I’m going to improve the way I influence my opinion to a group or to my boss. And all the traits are very useful. Thank you again.

[@properdoe3414]

How do u know so much? Seriously. You have nailed so, so many topics that I have been pondering and agonizing over for years.

8- be a top performer -look to help others all the time. -know how to prioritise -know difference between serious and professional -flexible and eager but no doormat. -execute more than your talk -say what needs to be said -get work done before deadline (get high quality) -avoid office gossiping -constantly update and gain knowledge/skills/training

[@AK-ti6lk]

i've done all of this minus the gossip due to 42 rules of power

[@fullpotentialrealized654]

Thanks for this quick list summary - helpful for all

[@DrJonTam]

05:12 - They look to help others...all the time. 06:40 - They know the difference between being ‘serious’ vs ‘professional’. 09:00 - They’re flexible and eager, but not doormats. 11:12 - They execute more than they talk. 12:10 - They only say what needs to be said. 14:18 - They get their work done before the deadline. 15:12 - They avoid office gossip. 16:11 - They constantly training and updating their knowledge and skills.

[@boubou_edu6174]

thanks

[@ananguyen4509]

thanks for your summary

[@TheGoddessNotebook]

One thing that has helped me in the corporate world is when you have the opportunity to voice your opinion on an issue or rules... Dont just complain about it.. Instead voice your opinion respectfully and offer a solution in the same sentence. Not only do they realize you have a voice and not afraid to speak up, but you’re also a problem solver and managers LOVE THAT!!!!!

[@angelikam6647]

[@Tman76]

Not in the construction industry. All they care about is initial cost. You can make a reasonable suggestion and a great solution, but if it will cost a few dollars more they will dismiss it and you will be shunned for making such suggestions. Even if you show them how it will improve the company’s quality and reputation. I have shown the builder I work for a way to save money and keep us from looking like the cheapest company around, but because the money saved does not happen until after the possession of the home they do not care and constantly shoot the ideas down. Even though it will save them money in the long run. It is pure stupidity and stubbornness. And why many have left and I may be next.

[@paolee2730]

There's definitely a plus for being a top performer, but you just can't beat a team of families and friends. They will always hire their people first. I've seen it first hand.

[@coreyanderson7424]

This is very true. Unless you show them that you are the most popular AND the smartest AND can handle stress and pressure well.

[@martinam7806]

Same

[@robindeanna1323]

This is a huge challenge for me because I'm a naturally quiet person that would rather keep to myself more often than not. People genuinely like me, but I'm also not the kind of person that someone would want to emulate or invite out for a birthday. I don't have a choice other than to change, but it's honestly not fair. I like how I am, I like having a strong internal presence and choosing to speak with purpose rather than to put on a performance for others so that they feel entertained. I wish I could be like them, I really do.

[@vadhiasa]

Do you need help

[@vadhiasa]

I can recommend you to someone

[@martinam7806]

Robin I totally agree with you. I am an introvert but have to play it nice and do all those small talks so I am being “seen” by others. The other thing is - this type of communication without purpose is draining me a lot and I am tired from it. But learned the hard way in previous job that I have to pretend to be social just to get where I want. Being simply hard working is not enough.

[@intelliGENeration]

doesn matter how hard you work. dont get stuck with the wrong manager. by wrong i mean someone that’s wired differently than you. you can be a dream come true, but the wrong manager will use a race stallion to workthe land... because that’s the only way they know to use their resources. so run until you find a fitting culture, where people get you. thats it.

[@kikobautista9861]

intelliGENeration so true

[@jay6817]

Exactly what's happening to me

[@fullpotentialrealized654]

Something I wish I focused on earlier in my career!

[@linettelow]

This resonates with so many of us, thank you for sharing :) Best wishes to all on this journey.

[@maryreed2280]

Excellent advice. In my experience, people who exhibit these characteristics do get promoted. And organizations look like they are staffed with clones. Everyone above a certain level has the same demeanor. Everyone below a certain level is an individual with a unique personality. If this comes naturally or you can act, you hit the jackpot. This makes me rethink even wanting a promotion.

[@akirayoung1101]

"The truth is people only promote their favorite person" :(

[@fullpotentialrealized654]

I think you're right, people promote people they like and trust, and they typically trust people who remind them of themselves. But I do think it's possible to form relationships intentionally, even across differences.

[@kingdomperspectivesmindset5595]

that's right, regardless of their ability or lack there of :o/

[@rh7245]

Yes, sometimes it's all about who you know

[@zelloresharrison7035]

Yes so true 💯

[@asadb1990]

my previous boss was too senior compared to my position and he left me in the hand of other underlings in the department. so getting any upward movement was very slow. in 2 years i expected to at least get $10k raise and a promotion with Jr. removed from my title. but it never happened. then layoff due to covid came and i was booted. when i started looking again i realized my last pay was 60% below market. i managed to quickly in few weeks get a job with 30% pay. i could wait for more but i would much rather be working.

[@suihtflava]

Top Performer - Last year I did that and i went to an extent of offering education. And guess who got the promotions? The very 2 new employees i had educated. Sometimes one has to be careful not to be used

[@ilovehouse888]

If you are too good in your current position, what motivation does the company have to promote you? You want to be good but not too good. Learn how to ask and fight for what you want. Also learn your value and don’t be afraid to move on if needs be. Good luck to all. This rat race is crazy out here.

[@googleknows339]

This helped me get promoted from sales representative where I was earning around 50k a year to sales manager where I make double that. I have been with the company for six years and I got the promotion just a month ago. The next promotion will be to director of sales which will double my current salary as sales manager, which I hope to achieve within three years at this rate.

[@mr.atheist8848]

Three years have passed. Hopefully you're now the Director of Sales?

[@javisanchez_]

1.they like talking to you 2.your nose is brown 3.you’re the boss’s relative 4.you’re naive to their shady tactics 5.you’re related to someone in upper management 6.everyone else is comfortable in their position 7.doing minimal amount of work 8.showing up barely on time Edit: number 8 is optional you don’t have to show up, you don’t have to call in either

[@bhagyashrijoshi9537]

All the people reading this comment..pls know it's very important to have a healthy relationship with boss and colleague..remember your boss can fire you in a second for anything if he/she doesn't like you. There's already much work pressure to worry about..so focud on relationship building. Help ur boss succeed.

[@fullpotentialrealized654]

Great point. I agree- your relationship with your manager is key

[@Divergence]

Work smarter not harder. Be more reactive when tasks come in! Or take on tasks you know that haven't been done in a while to go out of your way of doing. That's what managers like the most.

[@ktboarding]

This video is truly fire. I love your insight about the difference between being a strong performer vs. being a top performer. Spot on.

[@heisafraidofspiders]

If you are a top performer but the company has continuously failed to recognize it, you should spare yourself and become the average one until you are able to find a good alternative.

[@etc5274]

YeaH +++

[@JM-kd1mr]

Your manager sets the office tone. If your manager is toxic, look for another job. You will be miserable if you stay. The manager will promote others they like, no matter if you're the top performer, you will never get that promotion.

[@g.m.8828]

If management promotes people they like but can not do the job or don't have the way to get results. That management board is silly and about to crash really soon.

[@stuartkidd7807]

Number 2 is me. I isolate myself in my work, and clearly need to be more interactive with my colleagues and boss

[@Persainlady]

It is very difficult to keep the balance at work with being professional but friendly & at the same time keeping the boundary , when you are with other people in a room for long period of time. And making sure there is no clash of personality. Sometime you just don't fit in the culture of the office. Also,in some organisation, it doesn't matter how hard you work, how helpful you are to others, if they want to pass you they do. Sometime they want to employ someone from outside.

[@jdizzle312]

I know this video is old but I would honestly like to thank you for all your insights and genuine care for helping others. You’re an angel 👼

[@lisavolpe3269]

You are so correct, all the individuals I have ever known that have catipolted with in an organization, had several, if not all of these traits.

[@jirehdalo7468]

Thank you so much Miss Linda! I'm not really after of the promotion (please don't get me wrong with that), but what you said taught me that things doesn't go the way I thought it was. I'm after of the learning, and you open my mind for understanding how "office environment'" should work. And things doesn't go in the same cycle. Every day is a learning process, hence don't be stock on the same ground. So, thank you so much, Miss Linda!

[@monte4955]

Really great points Linda thanks for sharing this. The mindset of working harder = promotion is such a misconception. The points you made all relate to your profile within the organisation. I have seen alot of people being promoted solely based on the time they take in promoting themselves to get promoted. They are seen and act the part before getting the part. If that makes sense. Thanks.

[@desconecta2_]

Linda, please make a video about how to speak out for yourself..I never know when the time is right..I was a doormat so I started to say no and give my oppinions (even negative oppinions) about everything and that haven't been good either..Thanks for your help

[@transitny]

Thanks for this upload. I'm in a different situation at the moment. I'm a supervisor and I want to ask the managers to considering promoting my assistant since she's been here for several years and I want to give her incentive to stay with us. I have not been in this position before and I'm not exactly sure how or when to raise this. Have you made a video like this or can you recommend one on YT? My searches are only giving me videos on how to ask for your own promotion.

[@michaelhynes1730]

Another factual spot on video Linda. Perfect; looking forward to your next one.

[@jons.guitars]

Hello Linda, great content and I am sure very helpful for many of us. Looks like I am good on my way following the 8 steps, just need some adjustments here and there. Your tips would work well in a "perfect world", so my question to you is "What about navigating your way through office politics?", how do you deal with that?

[@nikhilkothari9746]

Thank you for your strong support.

[@allmendoubt4784]

True success is self governance, working to make others rich only helps by social value and/or gaining experience and knowledge.

[@leeklass3907]

If your employer has mentoring opportunities I would recomennd using them . Trying to stand out from the crowd in a positive way . If you get the cjance network in other departments use them

[@calvint3419]

I have one thing that make me not that professional yet although I perform all those most of those traits. I have strong technical skills so I easy to spot who is lying and try to manage others. I easy to get impatience and can't hide my temper. For those moments I can be aggressive and sometime escalated. But I can't stand when seeing people lies for a purpose.

[@awildaortiz5226]

How about when things come in with your name on it n is given to the favorite person to work on like you are invisible.

[@intrapsych1843]

Social science literature clearly shows that performance reviews are flawed. Add this on top of bosses conducting performance reviews with bias and a tendency to rate everyone as "average." Finally, layer this problem with managers conducting reviews without any significant understanding of what it is that the employee does.

[@chinkyfist6655]

So what if i am doing all of what you just explained? Does that mean that this company isn't where I should be and I should look for a different company to work with?

[@devinachoudhary8821]

Right. True. But office politics get you better promoted (such as kissing your boss' ass) than doing any hard work. That's the reality.

[@An-lh3ox]

This video and the advice are instructives for sure. However I am wondering in how many companies this charming intelligent lady has been working and for how long and if she got promoted regularly…? No person who got promoted display 1/3 of the skills she is presenting to us in the corporate world I know….. these skills are great to develop as much as possible but no one can be that perfect and certainly not those who get to the top ! People get promoted mainly because they have the weaknesses that are looking for by those who decide who to promote.

[@caribaez5711]

Having a job makes you more mature. Tells you what you really want for yourself.

[@Yehkaisehotahai]

what does this even mean ????

TL;DR Work when your around cameras and make personal connections with the boss or manager. Remember a human can find out whether your attitude towards them is intrinsic or extrinsic.

Reason i ask im thinking i can fully convey reasons / justifications in more detail and the manager can read it and review it again and again, also so i wont missed anything crucial points .i may perhaps setup a follow up one-on-one meeting ? Im thnking my manager will also have to escalate or defend it to management in case he/she agree with me and with the reasons are already in writing, im thinking would help?

Any advice on how to deal with colleagues (same level as you are) but act as if they are your boss? What to do if they make you a doormat and you perform some of their tasks, but the immediate heads see them more worthy than you are?

[@MrApplewine]

Make sure to spend plenty of time looking at job listings in your area and other cities. Apply for these positions even if they say they want more experience or list more skills. Go on interviews and make an offer and make sure it is enough to live comfortably to pay for housing, food and taxes and ideally not spend more than half of your salary. You cannot fix these other people. Also, consider if you are a young woman (under 40) if this is the time in your life you want to be focusing on making money when you could be having children (in a committed monogamous relationship where the man agrees to having children with you explicitly) and perhaps even home schooling them. If you want to have at least three children in order to grow the population and spend at least 6 years with each of them while they are young full time that is a considerable amount of time that can only be done while you are in your 20's and 30's. Otherwise the civilization continues to decline and you miss out on this enjoyable activity of giving a person all the things they need to be happy and healthy and build a peaceful and prosperous society. The feminist lifestyle, while popular, is not healthy and goes against human nature and is also destroying western civilization, as it was designed to do.

[@michelechurch7258]

[@random19911004]

These are good themes. Still, I am new to work ( just got my first full time job 4 years ago ) and I have seen many examples of incredibly smart and loyal employees being past up for promotion ( while everyone else in the team was bailing - for good reason, given that it looked liked no one was every promoted ). The team was run down to 3 loyal people ( that had been in their roles for 4 years or more ) , whereas the team should have been 9 - 10.
