Getting passed over for a promotion is one of the hardest career moments to sit with, especially when you were certain you were the obvious choice. In this episode, Dr. Janel Anderson walks you through exactly what to do next. She shares a framework for processing the disappointment without stewing in it, and then gets tactical: she identifies five specific gaps to diagnose (visibility, skills, advocacy, timing, and what she calls the invisible ceiling) and walks through how to seek honest feedback from the people who made the decision. She also breaks down the stay-or-go question with clear criteria for both paths. If you have been passed over and are not sure what to do with that, this episode gives you a plan.
