How to get others to see your Potential

• Create Content. Write blogs, tweets, podcast, video-casts that demonstrates your expertise. Creating solid contents reminds people of your new skills and knowledge.
•  Leverage social proof. If you are going to bother getting involved with a  professional organization, you should make a point to take leadership role, because the social proof of being seen as a leader will have exponential benefits.
• Find a wingman . Nobody's like a person who self-promotes. Find a like minded person  who scratch your back and you scratch his.
