Sometimes you have to leave your current job to ascend the corporate ladder-- but not always. Especially if you try a creative approach.

    有時候為了達到另一個高度，你必須離開你當前的工作，但也並非每次都要這樣做。尤其是當你嚐試運用一種創造性方法的時候。

    You don't have to change your job to achieve your career goals, taking on new assignments in your current job or outside your job can expand your leadership knowledge and skills -- and your marketability.

    The Center for Creative Leadership's McCauley believes you should look for developmental assignments, which she describes as "roles and activities that provide opportunities for you to stretch and grow as a leader," to advance. Use her three tips to identify developmental assignments in your personal and professional lives that will help you get ahead.

    創意領導中心的McCauley深信創造性的領導能力其中心就是你應該尋找有發展潛能的任務，她提出要采取這樣的任務
，那就是"能夠給你機會讓你變強
，成長為領導人的工作角色和活動".利用她提出的三個小技巧，來區分你的私生活和工作生活中的具有發展潛能的任務，從而得到進步。

    1. Add new dimensions to your current position.

    為你當前的職位增加新的維度

    Think outside your formal job description when seeking out new challenges. The first place to start may be helping your coworkers jettison unpleasant tasks from their plates.

    在追求新的挑戰的時候不要將思想局限於你常規的工作描述。可以從幫助你的同事解決他們不願意做的難題開始。

    "Consider moving a responsibility from someone else's plate to your own, trading tasks with another, or taking on a role or task that needs to be done but that no one currently 'owns,'" McCauley says. "In this way, you can expand your repertoire of skills and responsibilities while also helping out your colleagues."

    2. Use short-term assignments to fuel long-term growth.

    利用短期任務來促進長期的增長

    The best way to ensure that you follow through on new tasks and responsibilities and vary your experiences is with short-term or temporary projects. One-offs allow you to learn while also giving you the freedom to pursue other opportunities as soon as each assignment is completed. This strategy will give you a more immediate sense of accomplishment. You'll learn whether or not you enjoy the work as well as improve your professional record for seeing things to fruition.

    確保你全過程跟進一項新任務

    3. Pursue opportunities outside the office.

    在辦公室之外尋找機會

    Sometimes you have to think outside the box -- and the office. "You'll find plenty of leadership responsibilities in nonprofit, religious, social and professional organizations, schools, sport teams, and family life," McCauley explains.

    有時候你要跳出固有的思維模式
，也要把眼光放在辦公室之外。McCauley解釋說："你會在非營利性機構、宗教、社交網、專業協會

、學校

、運動隊和家庭中發現很多的領導職責。"

    In other words, opportunity is probably knocking at your door right this moment. You may find that stepping up outside the office is easier, as there is less competition. Also, your efforts will be visibly appreciated, particularly if you're leading in a volunteer or nonprofit capacity.

    Continue to actively look for places to expand your skill set on and off the clock. McCauley adds, "Challenging, real-life experiences are rich sources of growth and learning, but you don't have to wait for opportunities to present themselves."

    在工作中以及工作之外繼續積極地尋找其他的方法來拓展你的技能。McCauley補充說："挑戰，實際的生活經曆都是學習和成長的豐富資源
，但是你也不必坐等機會的來臨。"
