Know what you’re good at and say it plainly. Pretending you aren’t helps nobody on the team.

Understating yourself is not always humility. When a group needs to know who can do what, pretending you are not good at the thing you are good at slows everyone down and sends the job to someone less suited. Accurate is the target, rather than modest or inflated. Saying it plainly is a service to the people around you.

Practice one sentence about what you are genuinely good at, with no hedging and no boast attached. Use it the next time roles get divided up. Be just as plain about what you are not good at, since that is the same skill.
