You are confusing effort with impact. They are not the same. Working more hours can lead to bigger impact, but generally that scales linearly. The better route to success and promotion is to focus on the inflection points: the bits that actually move the needle for the entire team / company. Weirdly, as you become more senior in impact you may actually end up working less. If you have a strong record of delivering the right things then you can push back on unrealistic expectations. In fact, refusing overwork (except on occasion) is a powerful signalling mechanism. If are effective at your job and your management team doesn't understand then it's time to find a new gig. |
