Career Strategy Map

Map your current role by leverage, autonomy, learning rate, compensation, and visibility. The weak score usually explains the friction.

  • If leverage is low, look for automation, ownership, or a larger business problem.
  • If autonomy is low, negotiate decision rights before negotiating title.
  • If visibility is low, publish concise progress notes and decision records.
  • If learning is low, set a deadline for a role change or side project.
