I really enjoyed this!! I loved the reframing of haidt’s axes - purpose hits way closer than ‘divinity’ (though part of me wishes we did get divine clarity at work haha). And to Colleen - I am bookmarking that story for when I need a reminder to track the small wins before review season. Thank you :)
Yes - I did not want to open a can of worms about divinity in the workplace 😂 but agree with you re: divine clarity, especially since most of my time is spent finding ways to decode the unclear and ambiguous.
I love hearing all these POVs. I always think of self-promotion as efficient information sharing -- our leaders and colleagues want to know what we're up to, but don't have time to seek it out themselves. So therefore, let's make it efficient and shout what we're doing from the rooftops!
Yes!! Her advice is great - it speaks to the fact that you can do good work + share your achievements thoughtfully/methodically. She made the case and enabled their decision making.

Colleen’s anecdote is a GEM!

Fair point. Nothing’s more efficient than simply saying “I did this” 😂 after silently moving mountains behind the scenes
Thank you for this Ashley, it was so helpful to read. Colleen's story was especially great - love seeing this pay off with a raise!
