When Youāre Told Youāre Not Ready
Youāve done the work. You ask for a promotion. And then your manager says:
āI hear you, but youāre not quite ready yet.ā
Promotion conversations can feel petrifying because thereās so much at stake. But the way forward is to focus on what you can control.

š” Turning feedback into your fastest path forward
Hi there, this is Octavia, the founder of Fire Memos.
Iāve coached people through that exact moment, when youāve done the work, but still hear ānot yet.ā
And itās the reason why I created the 10-Day Promotion Plan.
I know how important it is to be prepared for pushback. This is what I want you to remember.
