planning to succeed

human capital department is not doing justice to me. my colleagues all got promoted, but me. i am a senior but not being appreciated. my contribution has no value to them. human capital department failed in planning my career....

what went wrong here?

actually to explain further, it's not human capital department's role to plan one's career. there are career paths provided as a guide that an employee can follow. however, what is it going to be in the next 3 years, 5 year or 10 years is beyond human capital department's control. HRD can provide training and development. the staff must be able to tap his or her own potential, identify his or her interest, discuss with his or her supervisor as well as HRD on his or her next career move, and most importantly possess the right attitude to grow in the company. indirectly, you need to promote yourself, show your supervisor and HRD what you have and can do further, willing to take bigger challenge, willing to lead a team of staff working together and possess the right attitude to hold higher position.

so, you cannot blame others if you are not being spotted as a talent in a company by keeping quite, not to let others know about your potential, afraid of taking more challenge and keep blaming others when something when wrong.

so, plan your own career, work that out with your boss, talk to HRD. with the right attitude, you'll succeed.
