Before you work out how to ask for a promotion at work, make yourself ready to be promoted. Think about the skills and experience you need to demonstrate for the role you want to be promoted into.  How do you compare right now? Work out your gaps and close them before going for a promotion at work. I share 5 methods for working the gaps out.

Getting promoted at work is showing you can do a lot of the role before you ask for your next promotion. Think about the tasks, activities and responsibilities of the role and the level at which you need to operate at. Work out how you are going to demonstrate this - key steps to get your next promotion at work. Make yourself ready for a promotion at work!

Next, build your list of achievements and how much value (revenue and profit) you add to your business. This is really important for your conversation with your boss and your bosses conversations with others deciding on promotions. Achievements that make you stand out really help with promotion at work

How to ask for a promotion at work includes preparing for objections. There will be objections: there is not a role available, you are not ready yet, we don’t have budget etc. These can all be big blockers to your next promotion at work. I share tips on how to prepare and overcome objections to your promotion. 

When to ask for a promotion is also important. There is never a perfect time. There are plenty of bad times to avoid which I go through. Choose a good time and book a meeting in with your boss and ask for that promotion. 

Good luck!
