How to Get a Promotion
Kuhusu kitabu hiki cha kusikiliza
This is a game plan for getting the promotion you’re after. It’s not a book. There’re no chapters, no chapter headings, and there’s no table of contents. There’re twenty-five sections, one after another.
Each section is a clear, concise, specific thing to do, to get the promotion you’re working hard for. Use them to nail it down, before somebody else does.
Every section is a piece of a game plan from the frontlines of business. None of the sharp corners have been rounded. This is how things really are. No one’s going to give you a promotion. You’ll have to earn it with your persona, skills, and willingness to pay the price.
Don’t let anyone or anything throw you off-course. Stay focused on what you’re doing, on your deadlines, and on what you’re after: a bigger job, with bigger responsibilities, and a bigger paycheck.
Start today. Master every one of the twenty-five sections. You’ll get good at the promotion game. Then, play to win, always play to win. You’ll get the promotion you’re after.
