Japanese term

踊り場から脱出

Japanese to English Bus/Financial Business/Commerce (general) business plan
この時期恒例の
次年度事業計画書のスローガンを英訳しなければならないのですが
その中に
「踊り場から脱出」という表現があります。

「脱出」は逃げ出す感じでpositive な印象を受けないので
break through という表現を用いて、
break through the plataeu や break through stagnancy を考えています。
こういった表現は、ビジネス的な文脈で使えるでしょうか?
また、他にもっと相応しい表現などありましたら、ご教示よろしくお願い致します。
