Committing these 5 mistakes will hurt your career - Avoid them

 

Happiness within the modern workplace is improving, sure. We talk less about discrimination, and we’re getting closer to equal pay regardless of gender. But that doesn’t mean that workers are thriving unhindered. The big difference is that these days, the barrier to advancing is more likely to be self-constructed. That’s right: Your own worst workplace nemesis is you.

Maybe it’s a lack of confidence to demand the salary you’re worth or the promotion you deserve. Maybe you’re risk-averse, and inclined to hand over the high profile (and high visibility) assignments to someone else. Maybe you don’t have a mentor. Maybe you aren’t a mentor yourself.
But more than ever, each of us is a brand, in competition with other brands, and in order to succeed, it’s important to learn to stop getting in your own way; to create your own path. Here are the top worst mistakes modern workers make, and ways to avoid falling prey to the same traps yourself.
