Six things to pay attention to in the workplace

The education background and ability are no less than that of a professional talent, but why does the leader just ignore you?

Many young people who are new to the workplace have no less education, ability, attitude and diligence than the professionals, but they still look young and can not meet the requirements of maturity and reliability. What they lack may be the following six important workplace thinking.

  1. Result oriented. The role of a person in an enterprise is to create value. In the workplace, no matter how good and hard you are, if you have no output and no contribution, your existence is meaningless. There is a saying: "There is no need to deliberately manage contacts. When you can provide value to others, you will naturally have contacts." If you want to be recognized by others, you will get results. This requires us to perfect every detail and ensure output. In addition, don't use "I'm working hard" and "I'm busy" to make excuses for being busy and fruitless.
  2. Think from the perspective of managers. "I'm just a clerk", "I'm just a designer", "I'm just a salesperson"... When you look at yourself with the eyes of a small employee, your work will not be the best. The correct way is to stand at a higher level, look at yourself from the perspective of the manager, try to understand the expectations and intentions of the superior, and ask yourself: what goal does he want me to achieve when he asks me to do this? In this way, you will understand the overall situation, know your position and direction, and guide your work and achieve the "best" in the minds of leaders.
  3. Execution. Many people are keen to put forward various ideas, one idea today and one idea tomorrow. This is a good thing, but if you just say it without practice, these ideas have no value at all. Who will trust and reuse a person who never does anything? In the workplace, executive ability can best reflect a person's business ability and potential.

  4. Focus on the big and let the small. Some people are too busy and have been ignored or criticized by the leaders for their lack of achievements; Some people have only done one or two things, but they have made a great success, which has been praised by leaders and colleagues. The key is to find important and valuable work content. Many people prefer to spend time on simple things, but avoid complex and important things, leaving the impression that "he is very diligent, but seems to have done nothing".
  5. Quantitative work. In 1911, Norwegian explorer Amundsen became the first person to reach the South Pole. During his journey, he adhered to the "20-mile rule", that is, the daily journey of the expedition team was kept at about 20 miles regardless of the weather. With this speed, they successfully reached the South Pole. However, his competitors are very "casual". They can walk 40 or 50 miles in good weather, and can't take any steps in bad weather. Finally, the whole team was destroyed. Work should not be based on mood. Take small steps to jog and make continuous progress. In the long run, you will succeed.
  6. Speak with data. Although data cannot represent everything, it is more persuasive than subjective feeling, and it can better reflect the objective spirit of mature professionals. Learning to find, analyze and present data to prove our point of view will make it easier for us to obtain support and resources.
