@elite.recruiter: Busy is not the same as valuable 📊 That is the single sentence I wish more senior professionals understood ten years earlier in their careers. The people moving up are not the ones drowning in tabs and back to back meetings. They are the ones who treat their career the way they would treat a business unit. Targets. Strategy. Quarterly check-ins. A clear sense of what success looks like in 90 days, not just what is due on Friday. Corporate is not a meritocracy nearly as much as people think it is 🎯 Effort gets you noticed by your manager. Strategy gets you noticed by the people deciding who runs the next big thing. If nobody three levels above you can describe in one sentence what you are known for, that is not their failure. That is your positioning problem.
