Listen "Why You’re Not Getting Promoted"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode of Kin & Capital, hosts Mike, Chris, Christian, and Alexis break down what real workplace value looks like—and how to prove it. They map value into four clear tiers (doing the work, unifying people/process, communicating impact, and driving new ideas) and show how to climb those tiers without waiting for permission. You’ll hear exactly how to set expectations with your manager, document wins in a way leadership can actually use, and build a case that survives budget scrutiny.They also get blunt about limits: some roles do cap out. The crew walks through signals that it’s time to push for scope, pivot skills, or change companies—and how to do it without idle threats or burning bridges. Expect practical scripts for promotion talks, a simple “win log” structure, and a reality check on raises (they follow business impact, not living costs).Key Discussion Points[00:01:23 – 00:06:06] What Value means [00:09:42 – 00:11:06] Prove it first — Set goals, track wins[00:16:37 – 00:18:00] How promotions happen [00:21:04 – 00:22:40] When to leave [00:21:47 – 00:22:09] Ceilings are real________________Host BiosMike: Cybersecurity professional and new LLC owner focused on business growth.Chris: IT leader sharing insights on networking, leadership, and career advancement.Christian: Sales enthusiast emphasizing consistency, value, and personal development.Alexis: Creative in graphic design, photography, and videography, discussing passion-driven work and internships.Follow Us Here atInstagramhttps://www.instagram.com/kin_and_capital/Discord GroupComing SoonKin & Capital is a podcast hosted by brothers Mike, Chris, Christian, and Alexis, focusing on personal growth, entrepreneurship, and family dynamics.
