4 Year-End Career Moves It Pays to Make
Now that 2019 is nearing its end, it's time to take stock of your career and take steps to set yourself up for a successful 2020. And while you still have a number of weeks to make that happen, with the holidays coming up, it pays to think big picture now, before you're deep in the throes of scheduled time off and year-end deadlines. Here are a few important items you ought to check off your list.
Perhaps 2019 was the year you were aiming to tackle three new projects, or complete one new marketing campaign outside the realm of what you normally do. If you've only finished up two of those three projects, or you've yet to broaden your marketing horizons, the good news is that you still have a little time to make those things happen. But get moving now, especially if those goals aren't just objectives you set for yourself in your head, but rather, ones you also communicated to your boss in the past.
If your company gives out yearly performance reviews, yours probably contained some action points to improve on throughout 2019. And now's the time to make sure you've hit on all of those points, because if not, you have a little time left to make positive changes that leave your boss thinking more favorably of you -- and that prompt your boss to recommend that you get a raise going into 2020.
