Certain behaviours will prove that you know your value and how you contribute to the results of your organization. Here are seven ways to achieve this:
1. Be clear about how your role and the department in which you work contribute to the organisation’s goals
2. Understand that your time there is in order for you to make a difference – not merely for be presence or fill a physical space
3. Perform at your best – on your own as well as when called to work with others. Show commitment and set high standards in everything you do
4. Use your initiative and think of ways to improve processes and procedures; do not be afraid of criticism or leave the creativity to others. An attitude of “no one will listen” or any such negative belief and excuse is unhelpful. Keep an open mind and consider the merits of others’ suggestions
5. Even if you feel you are over qualified, unappreciated or undervalued in your role, learn all you can so that your time there is productive and beneficial to all concerned
6. Own up when you make mistakes and be willing to take and give credit when due
7. Be willing to share information and organize your knowledge and experience in a way that others can learn from and use as a means to the company. Documenting best practices and implementing developing improved measures will bring success.
Treat your desk area with due care and discipline – it will help you to perform better at work and give a professional impression!!!
