Path for promotion is unclear

AAR Response

Thank-you for your work & post. Very much appreciate. Consider a visit with your manager, as that will support a strategy to perhaps push into a flight plan for promotion. On this end, have seen senior leadership members move through 5 jobs or so to achieve their career plans. Always willing to help, so pop a signal flare if HR can help. Blue skies! Straight ahead everybody, G-Man
