Self-Motivation
Self-motivation can be a great asset when you are pursuing a promotion. This shows that you are a leader who doesn’t require a pat on your back in order to perform at your best. You have set high standards for yourself, and you are responsible to meet them regardless of who is watching.
If you are self-motivated you don’t need to worry about upper management watching you or wondering if you are doing your best. They can instead breathe a huge sigh because they know they can rely on you to do your job and help others with theirs.
Marketers
If you want to impress upper management, it’s not necessary to be the most skilled marketer.
You can provide quality suggestions on how to improve customer relations and promotional activities. You will also demonstrate your ability to collaborate with other departments to provide a consistent, engaging brand experience to customers at all touchpoints.
