Internal Networking Playbook
Network with Purpose and Get Promoted
(minus the awkward coffee chats)
You’re great at your job, are the right people noticing?Â
Getting promoted isn’t just about performance. It’s about visibility.
Hiring leaders consider who they know, who they trust, and who they see as a future leader.
Most people think networking means sending small talk at the team happy hour or grabbing coffee with senior leaders.Â
The truth? It takes a whole lot more to build internal advocates for your career.Â
When you have the right people in your corner—decision-makers, influencers, and advocates—you stop hoping for a promotion and start positioning yourself as the obvious choice.
Hi! đź‘‹ I'm Donna Lin, Founder of On Target Learnings.Â
I navigated Corporate America for 20 years and achieved 9 promotions culminating in my roles as Area VP at Salesforce and Director at American Express.
I’ve achieved President’s Club 3 times, won my division’s “Leader of the Year”award and was sponsored for 3 international relocations (London>San Fran>Toronto). I now leverage the skills I gained over 15 years in Leadership to Coach salespeople.
The goal of this Networking Playbook is to demystify how to build internal relationships to get promoted faster. My tremendous career success is a result of the support I’ve received over the years from my network. Sponsorship doesn’t just happen, you need a strategy.
I’m glad you’re here and you can steal mine 🔥 Â
