Are you member of a professional association? Well, why not join one and see if your employer is willing to pay your membership or worst case scenario, contribute to it. Start making yourself known, find out what you can do to get yourself noticed; maybe attend a few networking meetings – see if you can get actively involved in events and conferences or maybe contribute as a key speaker. Look at ways to challenge that comfort zone!
