You are an accomplished professional. You've been doing financial analysis, software development, professional training, or managed your department for a while, and you are really good in what you are doing. However, you are ready for more. You want to move to an adjacent professional area, get a higher title, become a people manager, or a business executive. How do you make this happen? How do you escalate this process, given how professionally strong and how hardworking you are? This section of our site will help you in making the next step in your career happen organically and as fast as you are ready for it.

Each week, we will share new tips coming from our experience with running Leadership University for career professionals as well as personal experience working as a consultant and a permanent employee with multiple organizations. Those tips will be followed by detailed explanations, real life examples, and thought provoking questions. We expect you to also contribute and share your questions and personal experiences.

Let's begin out journey by sharing the first 10 topics we will cover - see our next posting.

The first ten most important topics for career advice for advanced professionals ready for the next step in your career that we identified are listed below. We used a number of criteria to come up with this list. This included basic expectations setting such as "Sharing your professional aspirations", statistical criteria (topi 5 reasons why you are overlooked for a promotion) as well as emotional intelligence (targeting your communication to your audience and ability to read your audience) that are another frequent failure points.

Every week, there will be two new tips posted so that this site has its first 100 tips by the end of 2016. We will structure these 100 tips in such a way that there may multiple tips related to one competency, so the way titles will be organized is <competency>:<tip>. While competencies will be mostly familiar to you, the tips are intended to be fresh and as practical is possible with a lot of examples from our personal career as well as stories shared by students at our Leadership University sessions and visitors to this web site. We will share questions and exercises that will help you assess whether you are on track.

Your input into the topics and the content is greatly appreciated. Let's make this conversation interactive, as every conversation should be. Share your experience, ask questions, make this helpful to you in your career growth.

Having that said, the list of the first 10 topics includes:
1. Sharing your professional aspirations
2. Getting to know the shadow that you cast
3. Giving and receiving feedback
4. Creating your elevator pitch
5. Using your emotional intelligence for competitive advantage
6. Establishing your professional presence in the office
7. Establishing your professional presence outside of the office
8. Setting and communicating clear goals
9. Innovation on the job
10. Finding a partner in your manager

See you soon with the topic #1: Sharing your professional aspirations

    About the Blog

    The difference between our career advice site and many others on this topic comes from the fact that it is not written by a career consultant who has limited experience with achieving career growth in a professional environment. This site comes from an industry expert who achieved career progression step by step and learned the lessons that are now generously shared with you.
