Many capable, high-performing women assume promotions and raises are simply a matter of working hard and delivering results.
But in many organizations, performance alone isn’t what drives advancement.
Promotions often depend on how clearly leadership understands your impact.
That means visibility, positioning, and the ability to communicate your value in a way decision-makers recognize.
And this is where many incredibly capable women get overlooked.
Not because they aren’t talented.
Not because they aren’t working hard enough.
But because no one ever taught them how to translate their contributions into the kind of leadership language that gets noticed, trusted, and rewarded.
So they keep doing excellent work…
while someone else gets the promotion.
The good news is that this is not a talent problem.
It’s a positioning problem.
And once you understand how leadership actually evaluates value, you can start showing your impact in ways that accelerate recognition, influence, and income.
If you're creating real value at work but still feel overlooked for promotions or raises, you're not alone.
This quick quiz is designed for high-performing professionals who want to understand how leadership currently perceives their value.

This quiz is especially helpful if you:
Consistently deliver strong results but feel seen as reliable instead of strategic
Notice others being recognized or promoted even though you’re producing great work
Want a promotion or raise but aren’t sure how to position your value
Feel like leadership doesn’t fully understand your impact
In just a few minutes you'll discover:
How leadership likely perceives your value
Whether you're positioned for your next promotion
The fastest way to increase your visibility and income

Shannon Fox is a #1 International Best Selling Author, Promotion and Compensation Coach, and creator of the 5% Promotion Method.
She helps high-performing working women move from being seen as “reliable” to being recognized as strategic leaders ready for promotion and pay growth.
Through her 5% Promotion Method accelerator, Shannon teaches women how to position their value, communicate their impact, and advocate confidently for the recognition and compensation they deserve.

In many organizations, promotions are not based only on performance.
They are based on visibility, positioning, and leadership perception.
Many high-performing women focus on doing excellent work but are not taught how to translate their impact into leadership language.
The 5% Method helps bridge that gap.
The 5% Method is a six-month promotion and compensation accelerator designed to help high-performing women increase their visibility, leadership positioning, and income without burnout.
The program focuses on three phases:
Value Visibility – identifying how your strengths create value and making that visible to leadership.
Energy Authority – eliminating over-functioning and reclaiming your leadership presence.
Leadership Leverage – learning how to communicate your impact in the language leadership understands and rewards.
The goal is not to become someone different.
It is to become legible to leadership.
The 5% Method is designed for high-performing working women who are already trusted and capable in their roles but feel overlooked when it comes to promotions, compensation, or leadership opportunities. Most clients come to this work because they are doing meaningful work inside their organizations, but leadership does not fully see the strategic impact they create.
The goal is not to work harder, but to position the value you already bring so clearly that leadership cannot overlook it.
Not necessarily.
Many clients begin working together before they plan to ask for a raise or promotion. This allows time to strategically position their work, document impact, and build stronger visibility with leadership.
When the promotion conversation happens, it is supported by a clear track record.
Traditional career coaching often focuses on resumes, job searching, or general career clarity.
The 5% Method focuses specifically on promotion and compensation positioning inside your current role. The work centers on helping leadership clearly understand the strategic value you already create.
During the call we will:
• Review where you currently are in your career
• Identify opportunities to increase visibility and positioning
• Clarify the fastest path toward your next promotion or compensation increase
• Determine whether the 5% Method would help accelerate your progress
This conversation is designed to give you clarity about your next move.
The 5% Method is designed for women who are already high performers in their organizations.
Most clients are established in their careers, trusted by leadership, and often carrying more responsibility than their current title reflects.
They are ready to move beyond simply doing excellent work and want to position themselves strategically for promotions, compensation growth, and leadership opportunities.
This work is especially powerful for professionals who know they are creating meaningful impact but want that impact to be recognized, valued, and rewarded.
