Promotions: 10 Tips for Moving Up the Corporate Ladder « Life After College by Jenny Blake

Build your career like a pyramid not a ladder (Carol Bartz) – Don’t be afraid of horizontal moves. Focus on finding work that is soul-stirring (as Tim Gunn would say) and make adjustments along the way. Much better (for most people) to focus on finding work that is a great fit rather than just on getting promoted. Sometimes you have to make a lateral move, but if it leads to greater happiness and productivity, it’s probably worth it in the long run.”
