In episode 131, we're talking about why getting great reviews and getting promoted are two completely different decisions — and what it actually takes to win both.

You are doing the work. You are hitting your goals. Your manager thinks you are incredible. And you are still not getting promoted. That is not a reflection of your performance. It is a reflection of a system that no one explained to you. And in this episode, I am breaking it down.

In this episode, I cover:
→ Why promotions are not decided at your review and when they actually are
→ What strategic visibility means and why the right people need to know your work
→ How timing is the truth teller when it comes to your promotion cycle
→ Why your manager is not the sole person who gets you promoted
→ What it takes at each level: individual contributor to manager, manager to director, senior leader to VP

Key Takeaways:
– Great reviews and promotions are two different decisions. You can be acing one and not even be in the room for the other.
– Promotions are shaped and planned months before your review. By the time you sit down, the conversation has already happened.
– Strategic visibility is not bragging. It is making sure the right people know your work before the decision is made.
– Your manager is not the sole person who gets you promoted. Multiple decision makers are part of that process.
– Planning in advance is not optional. It is the whole game.
