Growing your career within your current organization

You don’t necessarily need to leave an organization to grow and develop within your career. 

It’s possible to create and manage your career path within one organization as opposed to multiple organizations that span your overall career. Remember that promotions are not always an upward trajectory. In our current market, and with your new skillset, it’s important to recognize that growth and development may mean a lateral shift to a new department or functional area.

To begin exploring what promotional opportunities are available within your company requires care to sustain or develop your reputation as a committed professional.  Be ready to have an open dialogue with individuals at your organization to make them aware of your career ambitions. 

Check out these resources to better understand how to maximize your career development and map a plan to network internally.
