The ability to work together interdependently is one of our least developed skills. Yet, it is the most vital in today’s landscape. The communication skill of connecting with others – and creating the emotional space for others to open up – requires deep trust. Without trust, leaders and teams struggle to achieve extraordinary results. In two 4-hour sessions, you will discover the underpinnings of trust and how to build trust at all levels.

9 ways to show impact at work

career tips
October 28, 2025•1 min read

You can outwork everyone and still go unnoticed.

I see it all the time with high performers.
They crush deadlines.
Deliver results.
Solve problems quietly.

But when promotion time comes?
They watch others advance.

Hard work makes you reliable.
Visibility makes you rise.

After reviewing dozens of promotion cycles, these are the visibility patterns that move careers:

→ Keep a real-time wins list
Not for ego. For memory. You’ll forget that client save, that process fix, that team rescue by December.

→ Pair numbers with story
“I cut processing time by 30%” is data. “I eliminated the bottleneck keeping sales waiting 3 days” is impact.

→ Connect dots to bigger outcomes
Show how your work rolls uphill. That efficiency improvement helped land the Morrison account two weeks early.

→ Frame before you present
Don’t just share results. Set the stage: “We were hemorrhaging clients due to slow response times. Here’s how we fixed it.”

This isn’t bragging. It’s clarity.

Infographic titled "Results $\neq$ Recognition: 9 Ways to Show Your Impact at Work." It features an illustration of a woman in yellow and green standing next to a list of nine tips in two columns: "DO THIS" (green) and "HOW TO DO IT" (yellow). The tips are: Document your wins weekly; Reframe sharing as service; Tell the prevention story; Quantify the invisible work; Identify your leadership patterns; Add context to every metric; Master the narrative; and Pre-frame your impact.
