As much as possible, quantify your results. Use quantifiable metrics to demonstrate your impact. Its difficult to show your impact if there is no way of tracking or monitoring it.

?? Proving Your Worth with Data-Driven Results & Future Potential ?? In my experience, demonstrating clear, data-driven results is key. How many lives did you impact? What was the average rating on public reviews of your project? Did the project stay on budget? How quickly were issues resolved? By using key performance indicators and data to support your achievements, you make a compelling case for your value. Prove you can solve problems effectively and show that you could do even better with the tools and responsibilities that come with promotions. Always aim for upward trajectory in your work, career, and value to your organization and stakeholders.

Whilst this sounds to make sense it’s really not that valuable because it’s just your perspective and not your bosses. Whilst I agree it’s important to communicate what you have done, make sure it has really added value to the organisation. Agree goals with you boss and report against them

Don't underestimate the power of speaking up and sharing innovative ideas . Your boss and colleagues may not be aware of the potential social impact initiatives that could benefit the company. Propose well-thought-out plans that align with the organization's mission and demonstrate how they can improve both the company's social footprint and its bottom line. Being proactive in this way shows leadership and a commitment to the company's values, which can significantly enhance your professional reputation.

In my experience it is important to come up with ideas but what I have found to be even more powerful is taking full ownership of the ideas. It is important to note that each new idea should not disturb you from the tasks of the day.

Never stop learning, many people I have worked with in the past become comfortable and never learn anything new. When showing your worth and impact on your boss and the organization, it is important to show you are a life time student.

Storytelling is a powerful tool for illustrating the human element of your social impact work. Share stories that highlight how your efforts have positively affected individuals or communities. These narratives can be particularly compelling to stakeholders who are interested in the broader implications of the company's operations. A well-told story can resonate more deeply than numbers alone, providing a memorable testament to your contributions.

When working with teams or alone, it is crucial to always develop detailed case studies highlighting the challenges, your approach, and the positive outcomes. Organisations love problem solvers not problem identifiers
