Just a Little Self-Promotion...

Self-promotion is not a 4-letter word. In fact, a little self-promotion is often necessary to be seen by upper management, to gain influence, and to build our reputations as results-oriented people.
Help raise your profile and consider the following tactful ways to show others what you have accomplished:

•In the appropriate meetings, mention the positive results f...rom something you or your team accomplished.
•Make sure to send your boss a regular written update on goals completed and the status of current projects.
•Take on a challenging project and share your enthusiasm with others - especially your boss.

In our fast-paced world, people don't tend to know what we have done for them lately unless we tell them. Take a few key opportunities each month to mention what you have accomplished.

After all, hard work and good results deserve to be recognized.
