Promotion Strategy Coaching for Mid-Career Professionals

This service is designed for professionals who:

• Are already strong performers but feel stuck
• Want to move into leadership or higher-impact roles
• Are told “you’re doing great” but nothing changes
• Don’t want to job hop just to advance
• Want clarity on what decision-makers actually look for
   

If you’re early in your career or actively job hunting, this is not the right service.
If you’re mid-career and serious about advancement, it is.

This service is not designed for:

• Early-career professionals
• Active job hunters
• Anyone looking for long-term weekly coaching
• People who want motivation without accountability

If you’re mid-career, performing well, and serious about advancing, this session is designed for you.

 One of the biggest myths in corporate life is that performance alone leads to promotion.

In reality, promotions are driven by:

• Perceived leadership readiness
• Business impact beyond your role
• Visibility at the right levels
• Timing and organizational context
• How decision-makers see your future value
   

Many professionals fail to get promoted because they:

• Stay heads-down too long
• Assume results speak for themselves
• Focus on execution instead of leadership signals
• Don’t understand how promotion decisions are actually made
   

Promotion strategy coaching fixes that gap.

Our promotion strategy coaching is not motivational talk or generic advice. It’s a practical, experience-based framework built from real hiring and promotion decisions.

We assess where you stand today. Skills, visibility, perception, and risk factors.

We define what level you are realistically promotable to and what decision-makers expect at that level.

We identify what behaviors, outcomes, and communication patterns need to change to signal readiness.

We map how to get seen for the right reasons without politics or self-promotion.

We pressure-test the plan so you don’t make a move that stalls your career.

• “If I work harder, they’ll notice.”
  Hard work without visibility often leads to exploitation, not promotion.
• “I need to wait until I’m ready.”
  Promotions go to people perceived as ready enough, not perfect.
• “My manager will tell me when it’s time.”
  Managers don’t always advocate unless prompted strategically.
   

Promotion strategy coaching helps you avoid these traps.

 This is a focused, high-impact working session, not a sales call.

During your session, we:

• Diagnose why you’re not advancing
• Identify promotion blockers you may not see
• Clarify your next-level role and expectations
• Build a realistic promotion path
• Define immediate next actions
   

You leave with clarity, not homework overload.

LegUp Career Coaching is built on real hiring and leadership experience, not theory, templates or generic advice.

• Director and executive level leadership background
• Hundreds of interviews and promotion decisions reviewed
• No job-search fluff
• No long-term contracts
• Clear, honest guidance, even when the answer isn’t what you expect
   

This is strategy, not cheerleading.
