Will You Get Ahead?

By Marty Nemko

Answer these true-false questions. The more trues, the more likely you'll move up.
1. You add more value to your organization than most of your co-workers.
2. Colleagues often seek your counsel.
3. Your department is well-regarded.
4. Your boss is well-regarded.
5. You do important work.
6. You're upgrading your skills.
7. You've cultivated important allies in and outside your organization.
8. If you were the boss, you would hire yourself.

Arbitrary scoring system: 3 or fewer trues: you're downsizing material. 4-6: a solid performer. 7: Star quality. 8: Send me your resume.
