WORK PLACE PROFESSIONAL TIPS
Have a Positive
Attitude: Nothing works better -- in all
situations -- than having & expressing a positive attitude. Let your
enthusiasm show and be part of the team.
Dress Professionally/Blend in with Co-Workers: You should never underestimate the importance of dressing appropriately
in your job. Dress how you want people to perceive you because it plays a huge
role in how you are treated. (Perfectly groomed means
efficient and reliable in work; unkempt means disorganized & therefore
difficult to trust with different assignments.)
Ask Questions/Ask
for Help: No one expects you to solve all
the organization’s problems. Always ask questions or ask for help when you need
it. Remember that it’s better to ask before you’ve completed the task the wrong
way and wasted time. Be open-minded, be co-operative.
Be a Self-Starter
/Take Initiative: Whatever you do, don’t just sit there waiting
for your next project. Be proactive. Don't wait for an assignment. Find
something to do that is productive.
Work Full Days: Be on time, come in early, & stay a little later. There’s nothing
that can affect your reputation faster than routinely coming into work late or
leaving early. Be dedicated & flexible.
Avoid Office
Politics and Gossip: As with any
organization, the workplace is full of rumors & gossip. Your mission is to
keep your nose clean of all of it. Be sure not to associate too often with the
office gossips or risk having your image associated with them. DO NOT get
involved in any trash talking around the office. Don't repeat -- don't solicit gossip.
Keep Personal
Business on Company Time to a Minimum: Studies show that just about everyone conducts some amount of personal
business on company time -- checking email, making dinner reservations, buying
stuff online. Your goal is to keep your personal business to a minimum &
stay focused on work.
Listen More than
Talk: Listen, Listen, Listen .
. . don't act like a know-it-all. The idea is to communicate that you have very
marketable skills. You are here to learn & apply your skills to help the
organization achieve success
Track
Accomplishments: Tracking your
accomplishments is great for any number of reasons -- for your personal
satisfaction, for raise & promotion meetings, & for jobs.
Show Appreciation: Nothing works like kindness & genuine appreciation. Show your
appreciation to everyone who helps you- from your co-workers to receptionists
to the human resources staff.
