You work hard, you do your job well, but no one seems to notice or give you credit. Here’s what to do.

Whether you’re looking for a raise, better feedback from your manager, or greater visibility within your company, what can you do to be recognized? It can feel especially challenging if you’re more junior than your colleagues, your ideas are routinely dismissed or mistakenly credited to others, or your direct contributions aren’t easy to show off. Despite your best efforts, what can you do to get the recognition you deserve?

I sought answers from Andréa Long—head of Talent Engagement at Upstart, serial entrepreneur, consultant, and workshop facilitator. If you’re feeling undervalued at work, Andréa suggests clarifying how you’d like your contributions to be recognized, having ongoing constructive conversations with your manager, applying tactics to gain visibility and credibility, and being honest when you’ve exhausted your options and it’s time to move on to another job opportunity.
