Promotion Case Generator — illustrative example INPUT Promotion criterion: independent project ownership. Evidence: employee led two documented projects, each with scope and delivery decisions. No evidence supplied for budget ownership, another next-role requirement. RESULT Criterion: independent project ownership. Evidence: two documented projects with scope and delivery decisions; review those records against the role's expected level of autonomy. Criterion: budget ownership. Evidence: not supplied; remains unassessed. Case summary: the project records support discussion of ownership readiness, while budget responsibility needs additional evidence before a complete role comparison. REVIEW A promotion case should compare demonstrated work with the next role's requirements. Tenure or enthusiasm alone does not establish readiness. This is a teaching example, not a live execution record.
