How to use "Overlooking" in context?
Overemphasizing your strengths can have a detrimental effect on your career. How so? According to the article "The Cost of Strong Selves: overlooking Potential Hazards to Career Growth" by Kelly Buchanan, "individuals who overemphasize their strengths tend to be more satisfied with their current jobs, and they are more likely to receive promotions than employees who emphasize their weaknesses." This is because most employers look for signs of satisfaction and progress in an employee, and those who are satisfied with their current position and think their strengths are their only selling points are likely to overlook any potential problems.
