I really like the frequency distribution of what "level" of work you are doing as a way to think about both communicating what you do and leveling that with your manager. It gives you many more opportunities to discuss the work and how it applies towards your growth. Not everything has to be a challenge to get to the next level, but the majority could be. That's a really great concept.

Of course as a manager, trying to constantly find a growth opportunity or more complex work isn't always possible, sometimes the business needs will dictate what's possible and what's not. But having these conversations frequently will help shape that path.
