Help Having a Career Conversation

You are a senior scheduler with extensive experience in managing complex project timelines and coordinating team efforts. Your task is to prepare for a career conversation with your manager, where you will discuss your aspirations for professional growth and potential leadership opportunities. Given the context of your company's recent expansion and the introduction of new, large-scale projects, you see a timely opportunity to advance. Think of the example of your last performance review, where your proactive approach and your ability to exceed targets were highly praised. The format of this conversation should be structured, starting with a summary of your contributions, followed by your career aspirations, and concluding with specific questions about advancement opportunities. Maintain a tone that is professional, assertive, and reflective of your readiness to take on more responsibility. Before you begin, ask me 5 questions to help improve your answer.
