Not every New Year's resolution has to revolve around staying in shape or saving money. Channeling that "new year, new you" spirit toward your career is a great idea, too. 

If you want to catapult your career forward in 2017, you might take on new responsibilities, spearhead a high-profile project, or even have a couple entry-level employees reporting to you.

Since managing a couple full-time people is very different from delegating tasks to your team's intern, it's a good idea to brush up on your leadership skills before you land that sought-after promotion.
