I've continued to ask for growth and opportunities to be more strategic in our satellite campus. Traditionally team members at this office have stayed in the same role for 15+ years. In the past I've been advised that the opportunities are limited and snr colleagues will remain in their roles until retirement in 10 years etc. And growth, if possible will be organic. After this last performance review, I've been advised that the only way to grow in the organization is to take on more work load

Wow, that sounds like a lot. I wish I had advice for you, but I just want to offer some encouragement. It sounds like you're doing an excellent job in your current role, and I have no doubt you'll find a way to expand your role in the way that's best for you and the company! Best of luck to you!

Thank you! It means a lot 💜

Over and above the existing heavy load and managing 60+ clients. And that i need look around for ideas within the team to figure out how to take on more and that will be the growth.
I'm really stretched already and am heavily involved in all aspects of the clients products from price, place, promotion etc.
I am now invited to have a meeting with my supervisor to brainstorm what I can take on to grow and to identify opportunities to be more strategic.
I also manage a monthly content piece that is client facing and I typically end up writing all the content too.
I want to make valuable use of my supervisors time next week and am looking for suggestions from current VP and Supervisors for what they would expect from me to drive the bus for the meeting.

Hey All,
I finished a third round interview, and HR contacted me that afternoon saying I had positive feedback across the board and they would contact me the next day regarding next steps. It’s been two days and they finally get back to me saying they haven’t been able to sync with the hiring manager but will keep me posted. Honestly I wish they would talk with the hiring manager and then let me know the decision instead of checking in. It’s messing with my emotions.
