1.
Don’t talk negatively about
people behind their backs. If you gossip, people won’t confide in you. Mind
your own business.
2. Try to work for someone who’ll challenge your powers. You’ll
learn more in a year than 4 years of college.
3. Successful bosses have good communication skills. They learn
from people, including their employees.
5. On downsizing, the first to go are those
with few friends. Bosses prefer competent people whom they respect.
6. Dress for the job you want, not the one
you have. Let your dress reflect professionalism.
7. Workout to get in good physical shape.
Unless exceptionally skilled, the unhealthy are at a comparative disadvantage.
8. Personal integrity is crucial. Tell
nothing but the truth. Bosses can forgive mistakes but if you lie, you’re gone.
9. Be on time. Try to arrive few minutes
early. It saves you from stress. You’ll be much relaxed & work better.
10. Strive your best to keep a deadline. If
you cannot meet it, then apologize & ask for an extension
11. Don’t take things personally. If some
people are unhappy with you, it’s their problem. But always strive to give your
best.
12. If you must correct someone, don’t get
personal about it. Do it never in front of others.
13. Spend some time alone every day. What’s
the mission of my life? What do I want to be? And how to go about it.
14. As you move along Plan A of your career,
maintain a Plan B as well — an alternative course to rely
15. Always remember that the secret of
success is passion. Always think big. Spread love & joy. You’ll have
blissful years ahead.
Excellent practices not only for the workplace but in our personal lives as well. Especially the ones regarding punctuality and honesty!

ReplyDeleteThis didn't go over well in my summer job I have never met so many Chicken Georges and Bammas in my life then these fools had the nerves to try and carry out professional demeanors and it was obvious that even though they may have looked the part they were far from it.
ReplyDeleteI have found this to work well in my teaching career and professional life.
