I think the common theme though is to add value to the organization beyond what your paygrade is. In so doing, the company (actually, the manager who has the power to promote or fire you) will see you as a "good deal," or "valuable" and seek to keep you on board as long as possible (or promote you). These tips are good, specific ways to accomplish the goal of adding value to yourself. By doing that, a person also takes an active role in ensuring their own job security. -Kyle All of these tips are good.
