Strategic Alliances: Why Essential in the Workplace

Have you ever faced a situation in which you were overlooked for a well deserved promotion?

Have you ever felt as if a colleague with less experience and fewer ideas gets the boss's attention with more ease than you?

It can be SO FRUSTRATING! 😡 You grit your teeth and try to keep your cool; as your integrity wont let you play dirty just to get ahead.

Most of us have been here before... but unfortunately, in the workplace, outstanding performance is not automatically crowned with a promotion. To make it past the middle rungs of management “now-a-days”, who you know is just as important as how well you perform. 🤔

To break through the top you need a sponsor... you should form a strategic alliance with powerful leaders who are willing to advocate and help you propel! With a sponsor advising and cheering you on, you can capitalize on the mentorship and realize your full potential.

So stop 🛑 passively waiting for that next big break through! Instead put yourself out there. Look for opportunities to network, build your personal brand, and win the interest of a sponsor. 😉
