Get Promoted

How Career Advancement Really Works

De: Eric William Cunningham

Narrado por: Eric William Cunningham

Career advancement is often misunderstood. Strong performance, hard work, and tenure do not always result in promotion. In many organizations, promotions are not rewards for effort. They are management decisions made under pressure, shaped by trust, readiness, visibility, and perceived risk.

Get Promoted: How Career Advancement Really Works explains the promotion process from the decision-maker’s perspective. Drawing on experience across public, private, and nonprofit organizations, the book examines how leaders evaluate candidates, why high performers are often passed over, and how career growth is influenced long before a position is formally posted.

Rather than offering motivation, shortcuts, or career hacks, this audiobook provides clarity. It focuses on judgment, positioning, consistency, and professional credibility, and how these factors influence advancement over time.

This is not a promise of promotion. It is a framework for understanding how the system actually works.
