Ever wondered how to get promoted? Don’t wait for someone else to do something about it! You will have to put yourself ‘out there’ and advocate for yourself!

This week’s guest, Laura Terrell is a coach and advises her clients on how to make partner or get promoted. Before this her promotions include a trip as special advisor to the President in the White House so she knows a thing or two! Her wisdom in this episode includes:

Question Everything: Want that promotion? You’ve got to ask the right questions of the right people.

Ladies, Listen Up: Apply for the job even if you don’t check every box. Your potential is far greater than a checklist.

Be Your Biggest Advocate: Embrace a role as your own PR person. Familiarize yourself with your accomplishments.

Seize Your Moment: Waiting for someone to tap you on the shoulder? Don’t.

Context Matters: Sometimes, it’s not about you. It’s about the environment, the team, or the situation. You might need to leave.
