Good grief no. I’m stuck in the 80’s. My own office is very modern but entrance is hideous. Older female advisor decorated with horrid fake flowers. I’m not there today but will ask assistant to send me a pic. I suggested we modernize and she had a fit 🙄

Hey this is the point of the post - to get you thinking about your image and how you hold yourself out to the public. What would clients think with a facelift? Personally, I feel people want to feel comfortable and when a new client walks in I don’t want them to have a negative reaction whatsoever - on that note, I think being too high end can be detrimental.

I’ve built a reputation I’m proud of @ my company. I’m underpaid for what I do (started as an intern) & recently asked for a market adjustment. Management acknowledged that I’m undervalued & plans to set me up for a promotion. It’d come with more responsibility, which doesn’t align with my goals.

Is it wise for me to remain open to a promotion just for increased pay? Or should I be transparent with management about my goals (& possibly not get the pay I’m asking for)? Or any other tips?
