How To Process Being Passed Over For a Promotion


Listen Later

How do you handle the sting of being passed over for a promotion? Unfortunately, for ambitious women, this frustrating experience tends to be part of the package deal. We’re always pushing ourselves outside our comfort zones—so, of course we won’t get every opportunity we go after. In this episode, I share how to manage the emotional aftermath of this normal but distressing experience without losing your drive.

Tackle these three tips for coming out on top after a promotion pass-over:

  • Why you need to let yourself feel all the feelings;
  • How to get clear on what your career future looks like now;
  • When it’s time to think about moving on.
