Great article, Gregor! I believe that to grow to senior faster, one should be more concerned with the bigger picture and be proactive in initiatives that can have a greater impact on the team.

Thanks Gregor!

One thing that I would add, because I've seen it too often in people wanting to be promoted: finish your job before starting to do extra. Even if you did something extraordinary, I will never promoted you if you tend to be unfocused and ignore the team priorities to follow your own interest first, even if the company benefits from it.

Great add Fabien! Definitely, it's team achievements before individual. I find it a red flag if an individual is more focused on their own work instead of team's achievements.
