"Filmein sirf teen cheezon ki wajah se chalti hain... Entertainment, Entertainment, Entertainment" (Three factors that make a movie successful are Entertainment, Entertainment, Entertainment). Likewise, Salary/ Increment/ Promotion bhi sirf teen cheezon sey hota hai ... "Visibility, Visibility, Visibility"(three factors that are key for ones's salary increment are : Visibility, Visibility, Visibility).
Yes, visibility is the key differentiating factor impacting your salary/ increment/ promotion.
Let us understand this with an example: We often come across people who are hard working, committed and sincere. People who go out of their way to make sure that the job is well done and that the job/ project/ assignment is successful, yet, at the end of the appraisal cycle these are the folks who complain that they didn't receive their due and the salary increment is mediocre.
If they worked hard then what went wrong? They have no clue. WhaT theY Dont ReAlize is the fact that they failed to highlight their hard-work, sincere efforts to the right people in the right manner at the right time. In a nutshell, they didn't get any visibility.
Infact, they were so busy with the project delivery that they never got time to fill the self appraisal with accurate details. Really?
Also, they always cribbed of slogging at work but they never got time to update their Resume. Really? (this is applicable to those who think that their manager is not capable to appraise them)
So, next time you see someone (or yourself) cribbing about salary/ increment/ promotion. Ask them when was the last time they spent at-least 4 hours working on their self appraisals? or When was the last time they updated their resume and circulated in the market? just to check their own market value (forget about job change).
Coz we all know "Where There is a Will there is aWay Pay"
