Asking for Growth
It's essential to advocate for your own growth by openly communicating your needs and desires. When seeking training or support, don't assume others will recognize your aspirations; raise your hand and ask directly. Remember, people are often focused on themselves, so taking the initiative to express your goals can lead to valuable opportunities. Treat others with respect and approach situations with the belief that they may not be aware of their impact on you.In this clip
