Any tricks to help focus? It’s becoming almost impossible.

We have a big project going on and I am the only point person(initiate it, did lot of work, and knows the deets well), seems like my mgr wants to get a headcount. But I want to use this opportunity to get promoted, how can I get this across? Mgr is new(they fired my old mgr), mgr’s mgr is new too(re-org). So not sure if I should/can make a case, or how.

Industry imposter here…How do you show progression on your resume when your internal levels changed, but the title doesn’t indicate a promotion to the rest of the workforce. (e.g. a senior product manger to a technology strategist)…It seems like a lateral move unless you were internal and knew it was a level 7 to level 8.

I love what I did in physiotherapy but two years into the career im struggling to see progression or long term future satisfaction. What have people shifted to from this career?

I am applying now to remote jobs in the U.S. but would love to connect with companies operating in the region.

Hi. Looking for info reg how log in and log out card swipe data is monitored at TCS. Who can access this data ... managers and team members? Do HR conduct an audit of the log in details of associates?

Is there anything more discouraging than the realization that it’s late and all you did today was answer questions from interns, associates, clients, and the manager... and you had no time to get your actual work done 🥺

My wife works at a school with kids with behavioral issues. The kids are abusive to the teachers/paras and have hit, kicked, pulled hair, as well as have grabbed the privates of teachers/paras. Nothing is ever done about it by higher up. Recently, the principal got kicked in the leg, and it turns out that the superintendent is “pressing charges” against the kid, but won’t do anything for the teachers/paras. What actions can my wife and the teachers take if the superintendent won't do anything?

Any thoughts on an MBA vs MS Project Management. I was planning on doing an MBA but and MS Project Management seems like the better option now. I will be an international student and was planning on making a career shift into project management itself. I thought MBA would give me the best chance but I came across some good MS Project Management degrees. Also, I already hold a MS but in another field. Any thoughts?
