Teamwork is great … until it isn’t.
Your workplace might run on collaboration, but when it comes time to dole out raises and promotions, it’s not your whole team being judged — it’s you.
If you’re toiling away at your desk and then letting your group (or worse, one dude in your group!) take credit for your work, you’re going to have a tough time moving up in your career. Let’s talk about how to claim credit without feeling like your ego is doing the talking.
Jennifer Dziura founded GetBullish in the 2010s to provide a feminist take on careers, entrepreneurship, and boldly managing personal and professional relationships. Since then, the blog has spawned a gift store offering thousands of items, including hundreds designed by Jen herself. Jen studied philosophy at Dartmouth College, later received a masters degree in education, and is a former standup comedian and adult spelling bee host. She has spoken at Yale, Harvard, and many other universities and conferences and organized six Bullish Conferences. She lives in Brooklyn and writes from a planty corner of the GetBullish warehouse.
For over a decade, Jennifer Dziura has written here about careers and business from a feminist POV, using philosophy for better living, and taking no bull in our relationships, both personal and professional. Welcome!
