Stop waiting for your manager to bring it up

If you are not initiating the career growth conversation, it is often not because you do not care. It is because you do not know where to start, what options exist, or what “a good plan” even looks like.

And if your manager is not bringing it up either, you end up stuck in the same loop: do more, wait, and hope to be noticed.

You can break the loop. We will map your situation, make your North Star vision clear, and build an actionable plan you can run in your real week — including how to start the conversation and how to build a credible promotion case.

Most designers are stuck at senior level

You don’t know what to ask for

  • You want to grow, but the menu of options is unclear.
  • It is hard to advocate for an unknown the next step.
  • We’ll map realistic paths (promotion, scope expansion, role change) and choose one.

Your manager won’t bring it up either

  • Managers mean well, but career development falls off their agenda.
  • Months pass, and nothing changes, even though you keep delivering and hoping to be noticed.
  • We’ll prepare a simple, specific career conversation plan you can initiate and repeat.

“Do more and hope” is not a strategy

  • More output does not automatically become “next level”
    in someone else’s eyes.
  • Without a North Star, everything feels equally important.
  • We’ll define your North Star and turn it into a 90‑day plan with clear signals and evidence.
