Your biggest mistake at work? Assuming everyone knows what work you’re doing and how well you’re doing it. Good news? If you’re mediocre at your job, no one knows. Bad news? If you’re REALLY good at your job, chances are no one knows.
If you make it look easy and give credit to the team you might not be standing out to your boss. One of my favorite questions from Tiffany, “If you removed yourself from the project or situation how would it have worked?” A powerful question for anyone at the workplace!
Tiffany divulges some of the biggest mistakes she sees when advocating for yourself at work, tips for building relationships with senior leaders in your organization and how to boost your confidence if you fell short in some way this year.
