Steps to take to get a promotion
Work on your communication skills
Part of being a leader is being able to communicate well with people.
Communication is a large key in running effective workplace plans; for instance daily, weekly or monthly plans.
Learn how you can improve
Be open to the fact that you may need to improve certain areas of your work place tasks.
Be positive and nice to others
A good leader is positive at work and nice to others.
Actively assist with building revenue, company image and company improvement
The harder you work with your boss and/or co-workers to improve the company for the better the more likely you will become someone who is viewed as promotable.
Explore further training or enrol in a course
This is a step that is very likely to help you in receiving a promotion.
Training in the specific field you are looking to be promoted in shows dedication and a deeper understanding of the job.
What not to do
Don’t burn yourself out
Burning yourself out is when you are overworking yourself and committing to much of your time to work and projects.

Don’t overestimate
In conclusion, be realistic with your skills, knowledge, training, experience and what might be achievable.
