About Speedrun To Promotion
Members get a free video course on building a promotion plan, a free five-day Promotion Accelerator Challenge and live workshops hosted by Huynh.[1] The community is aimed at engineers, scientists and other tech professionals, and new members answer a few screening questions before they are admitted.[1]
Speedrun to Promotion was first announced in an A Life Engineered newsletter issue, which described it as a program for people already in the industry who want a lateral move or to climb the tech ladder in their current role.[2] The same issue named a promotion technique Huynh developed, called the Tech Promotion Algorithm.[2] Beyond the community, Huynh publishes a weekly newsletter and a book, and coaches engineers directly on their promotion cases.[3]
