What to Do When You’re Overlooked

Are you the sort of person who works really hard, hits your
deadlines, runs successful projects, wins over clients... but never
seems to get noticed for all that diligence, much less
promoted? Especially if you’re on the quieter and
more understated side, working in an organization where the loud
and showy get the most recognition, this can be frustrating. But
there are ways to
get noticed while also staying true to
yourself, says Jessica Chen. She's a former TV news reporter and
the founder of Soulcast Media, a communications consultancy, and
she shares lessons about more effective communication and
self-promotion. Chen wrote the book Smart, Not Loud: How to Get
Noticed at Work for All the Right Reasons.
