I aced a work event but my boss wasn’t there. Can I tell him about it?
NY Post
I led a successful meeting where I was under a lot of pressure, and afterwards the attendees gave me a lot of praise for it. I did a lot of preparation and am proud of the outcome, but it was only me from my team so my boss has no way of knowing how well I did. If I tell him will it sound like I’m bragging? How do I mention it?
If others don’t advocate for you, then you have to advocate for yourself, which is not the same as bragging.
At an appropriate time — perhaps during a feedback or review meeting — explain how you managed a difficult situation and what you learned from it that you want to share.
Or, schedule time with your boss to discuss the experience from a learning and development perspective. Explain the meeting purpose and attendees.
Share how you handled a difficult situation and the feedback you received from others, and ask if your boss had heard anything positive or negative about the meeting for your own development.
In this way, you are making your boss part of your development instead of just sharing.

Over a period of three days, with limited VPN connection, an eyewitness currently in Tehran — who, for her safety, is concealing her identity — shared her account of life under a country in the midst of battle with The Post’s Natasha Pearlman.
