100 Days to Your Promotion:

In today's economy, you might be feeling lucky you even have a job—asking for a promotion could seem like tempting fate. "Better to sit tight," you might be thinking. "Not make waves. Keep my head down."

Possible. But Leonard Lee, Assistant Professor of Marketing at Columbia University, did a study showing that people given coupons before they enter the store will spend more money than people given coupons once they're in the store. ( [ Ссылка ])

Why? It seems if we are given the coupon once we are in the store, we are already in "search-and-destroy" mode-- our goals are determined.

How does this apply to you—and your future promotion? Because if you want to influence your boss' decision-making, the time to start is now-- while he or she is still "outside the store" so to speak— well before he or she has made their plan for you.

Given this, here are 3 must do's and 3 must don'ts to ensure you feel confident asking to move to the next level in the next 100 days.
