Ep #66: Passed over for a promotion? Here’s how to move forward

So, it’s happened. 

You’ve been passed over for a promotion.

And now you’re left feeling frustrated and struggling to understand why.

I get it.

Being passed over for a promotion can really, really hurt, especially when you feel like you were the perfect person for the role.

But here’s the thing:

If you had your head down doing your work and looking up only to see opportunities pass by (when it was way too late to do anything about them)…

…then you were showing leadership that you weren’t ready for a higher level role.  

Landing that next-level promotion requires you to be strategic.

It means throwing your hat into the ring and doing the work.

And when you do that, you will become the perfect person for the role.

So if you’ve ever been passed over for a promotion and didn’t know how to bounce back…

OR if you want the tools to avoid it in the first place…

…then you need to listen to this episode.

In this episode of Maximize Your Career with Stacy Mayer, I’m going to show you why getting passed over for a promotion has the potential to be the most amazing thing that’s ever happened to you.
