Who doesn’t appreciate the acknowledgment of their efforts and wins, or like to impress others occasionally? It’s equally important to cultivate internal validation: a deeper sense of self-worth that is free from the wavering opinions of others and the momentary dopamine hit of a gold star.

Having clear and consistent communication with your manager is essential to delivering strong results. You need to know their expectations, and they need to have insight into your work to give useful feedback and help you grow. That’s why working with a manager who is too hands-off can be challenging, especially for people in remote environments. If you find yourself in this situation, the first way to improve the relationship is to get clear on your and your manager’s work styles. Once you each understand how the other prefers to communicate and solve problems, you can set up a system that works for you both. You should also advocate for a weekly one-on-one meeting with your boss to make sure you’re aligned on goals. Lastly, it’s in your benefit to network with your manager’s peers. Being connected to other leaders in the company will give you access to cross-departmental opportunities, and make your work more visible throughout the organization.

Many managers only begin advocating for their employees when they’re afraid of losing them or when promotion cycles roll around. It’s a reactive approach, and it often comes too late. Advocacy is about continuously championing your team’s growth by recognizing their contributions, ensuring their efforts are relevant to the organization’s goals, and making their value visible to key stakeholders. Make advocacy an ongoing priority, and you’ll see the ripple effects.
