Follow up on promotion after being ghosted

Director ghosted me after agreeing to new role, then ignored my follow-up messages

What I wish I knew
"To communicate more clearly about expectations and timelines"
If I could tell you one thing
"Don't be afraid to follow up, but also respect the other person's boundaries"
