I Asked for a Harder Role. They Said Yes. Then They Helped Me Win.

At most companies, asking for more responsibility gets you one of two responses:

  1. “Let’s revisit in six months.”

  2. “Are you sure you’re ready?”

At EOXS, I asked for a harder role — and they said:
“Yes. Let’s do it.”

No long approval chain. No politics.
Just:

“We believe in you. Here’s the accountability. Here’s the support. Now go.”

And that moment changed how I saw myself.


đŸ’Ș The Ask That Shifted Everything

I’d been in my role for a few months. I was doing well, but I felt underutilized.
I wanted to lead. To build systems. To own more than just tasks.

So I asked.

I didn’t come with a perfect pitch.
I came with honest intent, a clear reason, and a willingness to stretch.

And EOXS didn’t hesitate.
They gave me bigger problems. Higher stakes. Real impact.


🧠 I Wasn’t Ready — But I Was Willing

Let’s be clear: I wasn’t “fully ready” when I stepped into the new role.
But the team knew that. And they didn’t expect perfection.

What they gave me was:

  • Clarity on outcomes

  • Space to figure things out

  • Sharp, supportive feedback

  • Trust to lead before I felt like one

The result? I grew faster in 3 months than I had in the last 2 years.


🔁 Growth Without Gatekeeping

At EOXS, there’s no “wait your turn” culture.
If you ask for more and show up for it, the answer is almost always yes.

And that yes comes with support — not pressure.
That’s what makes the culture work.
You’re challenged and championed.


🙌 Final Thought

If you’re waiting to be 100% “ready” before asking for more — you’ll be waiting forever.

Sometimes, all it takes is one honest ask


and a company like EOXS that’s brave enough to say yes and build with you.

We’re hiring.
Ask for more here. You just might get it — and the team to help you win
