Can you get promoted now?

Dear Annie: I work as a senior manager on some projects that are showing strong returns. I haven't been here very long, so I'm still trying to figure out the politics, but I'm pretty sure I'm due for a promotion to the next level -- or at least, I need to start planning how I'll get to that level.

How do I make a case for my promotion? And how should I seek out my boss's honest opinion about what I need to do to move up?
