Are you stuck in a career rut? Are your former peers progressing ahead of you? Are you doing all the hard work but getting none of the rewards? Are you wondering what everyone else seems to know that you don't?
Asking for a promotion ranks high on the list of life's most anxiety-inducing activities. Putting yourself out there to higher-ups can be intimidating, and competition can be fierce, especially in the current economic climate. And, of course, what if they say no?
But it's also one of the most important things you can do for your career. If you want to move forward in your company or field, promotions are part of the game and they won't just be handed to you - you have to work - and ask - for them. Ready to take that next step? Penguin Experts Series: Get Promoted will give you everything you need to know before the big conversation.

—— ForbesA powerful case for a movement that is gaining traction.
—— Andrew Jack, The Financial Times[IMPACT's] aim is nothing less than to create a new type of capitalism infused with social purpose. The book deserves to be read by anybody interested in such a revolution.
—— Martin Wolf, The Financial TimesA fascinating blueprint for a hope-filled future underpinned by the social power of impact investing.

—— Bono, Lead Singer of U2 and Co-Founder of The Rise FundImpact is a new and very important idea to reshape and save our economic system.
—— Paul Romer, Nobel Prize in Economics, 2018The book is timely, visionary, bold...and thoroughly persuasive.
—— Rabbi Lord Jonathan SacksThis is not only a masterpiece but an historically important book-a powerful intervention in our thinking on harnessing financial resources for the good. It intervenes with profoundly compassionate imagination, and genius, where neither governments nor private philanthropy have prevailed. Each paragraph, each page, brim over with visionary scope and micro-textured examples of exactly what Sir Ronald has been so brilliantly engineering, and the many sectors in which the " Impact Revolution" is so well instantiated and advancing. Written with great lucidity and persuasive power, Impact is the most genuinely hopeful and important work I've read in this arena in decades.

—— Guardian‘Netflix is famous for its unique culture. Reed Hastings has already taken on Hollywood — the most powerful companies in Silicon Valley are next’
