About this listen
Most career frameworks stop at progression: tick the boxes, climb the ladder, chase the promotion. But what if growth was about more than just the next level?
In this episode, I sit down with Dan Ashby to explore how traditional frameworks fall short and how his approach flips the script by focusing on impact.
Dan shares how to connect your personal growth with company objectives, why tasks alone don’t qualify you for promotion, and how managers and employees can use his five-part framework to make growth measurable, meaningful, and strategic.
We cover:
- Why checklist-style frameworks create frustration and entitlement
- How to reframe growth around impact, evidence, and outcomes
- The role of intrinsic motivation—autonomy, mastery, and purpose—in performance
- Practical tools like skills mapping, growth tables, and Dan’s radar for impact
- How to use this framework as a “career passport” you can carry into any role or company
If you’re tired of frameworks that feel like admin exercises—or if you’re a manager stuck in endless promotion debates—this episode will show you how to build growth strategies that drive results, inspire teams, and actually matter.
