What if you don’t actually want a promotion?

You might be one of those people who love their work, are great at it and you really just don’t want to manage a team, sit in longer meetings, or take on bigger responsibilities that pull you away from the part you enjoy most. If that’s the kind of person you are, then your ambition just happens to look different. Not smaller, just different.
