Skills Gap Audit Before Your Next Promotion

You want the promotion but you are not sure what is actually missing. Give it your current role, target role, timeframe and what you have done so far. Acting as a blunt career coach, it names the five things that separate the two levels, rates you against each, and tells you where the gaps are. For anyone who wants the honest version before the panel gives it.

Act as a brutally honest career coach. I am currently a {CURRENT_ROLE} and want to be promoted to {TARGET_ROLE} within {TIMEFRAME}. Here is a summary of my experience and achievements so far: {EXPERIENCE_SUMMARY}. First, list the five most important skills, behaviours, or credentials that distinguish someone in {TARGET_ROLE} from someone in {CURRENT_ROLE}. Then rate my current profile against each one on a scale of 1 to 5 based on what I have told you, and explain the gap. Finally, for each gap, recommend one concrete action I can take in the next 90 days to close it. Format the output as a table followed by a 90-day action list.
