Yes. Something I learned from contractors on how to fix a big part of this is good communication (this is not self-promotion). People pay much less attention to others than we expect, so most don't know what we're doing or what we did.

1) Say what you're going to do.

2) Do it.

2a) Bonus: If something changes, immediately say what has changed and reconfirm the agreement.

3) Say what you did.

Those three steps go a long way toward being recognized for your contributions.
