Congratulations on all your exciting achievements! As you elevate, such things happen. Just remember you can't control people's actions. Focus on what you can control which is doing a great job, be good at documentation and kind to people. Don't let the haters distract you from your progress, and don't be surprised to have them either :) Focus on also building a supportive system outside work.
Great advice A1 :-)
Do your thing girl! Be aware of the politics and ensure that whatever visibility and exposure you’re getting now is helping your end goal. Don’t know what you do - but don’t rest too much in leadership liking you. Those that are jealous were probably liked by leadership at one point too. Leadership changes and dynamics change that will have no bearing on your popularity. Read the room at all times and look out for yourself!
No weapon !
Stay prayed up and what God has for you - won’t be toppled.
This is called politics and they often occur occur regardless of race and gender. Start promoting yourself to whom it matters most so that you create your own narrative and counter others' narratives behind your back. You have to become as strategic as they are even when you are an inherently good person. Congratulations and good luck!
One thing I’ll caution with the graduate program while working — a narrative that often comes up when someone is doing that typically surrounds bandwidth and their ability to keep up with the team/workload. Be proud of your achievements there, but be selective with who and how you share them. Folks have said it here, but politics come into play and some of the office dynamics I’ve seen play out is akin to sabotage and trying to add additional stressors to prove out a narrative like that. “Oh you have to sign off for a class at 6? Well we have a meeting that starts at 5:30 that may run over.” Be mindful of small things like that happening around you because these pale folks can be shady and they play politics very well. It’s not even racial most of the time, just how it is.
