People feel invisible at work when they aren’t recognized and appreciated, passed up for a promotion or don’t get the opportunity they think they deserve. Irrespective of how hard they work, they keep getting sidelined or ignored.

They stay back late in the office, work long hours, take back work home and give their 100% to anything that’s assigned to them. Despite ticking every item off their todo list, they constantly face disappointment and dissatisfaction of being overlooked and neglected.

Working harder than everyone else will never get them the visibility they want because no one ever gets noticed by simply doing great work. Keeping their head down and continuing to contribute will probably help them hit business targets, but they will miss out on areas where their knowledge and experience could have made a tremendous difference.
