"Last year there was a group leader position open on another team in our company. I put in for a transfer because I met the qualifications and was looking for a growth opportunity. Our team was already down a staff member so my supervisor would not sign off on the transfer request. I felt that it was unfair as there are not often opportunities to move up in our company. I discussed my concerns with my supervisor and I think that we both understood both sides after that meeting and he told me that in the future he would do his best to help me grow ."
