I know you think your manager knows what you are doing, but you need to know the truth, they don’t.
They are in as many meetings as you are and don’t have the visibility to all of the things that you are doing. They can’t possibly stay completely up to date with the latest status of your projects and your team unless you tell them.
You may want to ask them how they would like to stay updated. You can choose from a variety of options such as status reports, teams messages, texts, emails, and one on one conversations. Whatever method you choose should be easy for you and for them.
The important thing is to share the information that will help your management see the great things that you and your team are doing.
This additional communication may feel like extra work, but if you have an interest in getting new opportunities, it is crucial. You have to be visible to the decision makers in order for them to see what you can deliver and how you are leading your team. Take the initiative to equip them with the latest updates so they can see that you are ready for the next opportunity.
