Do you want to be in your current position for the rest of your life? If not, then you have to learn to accomplish your tasks in order to be a successful employee.
Ensure that the company you are working for has a goal which you believe in. Work for an honourable establishment and if you are not happy after a time, begin to seek work elsewhere.
Behave professionally and keep a smiling face. Do not fool around wasting your time and that of others. Learn to take criticism gracefully and positively. It will provide you with valuable ideas about what people expect from you, any weak areas and what you need to work on first. Learn to do your job and do it well. Whether it is menial and tedious or tough and high paying, do your work efficiently. Cultivate good relationships with your co-workers. Treat all of them whether high or low with courtesy, respect and kindness.
When you get the opportunity to learn a new skill, receive training for a different activity or take a study course paid for by your employer – do it. It shows that you are intelligent and value life-long learning. Keep a clean job history by being punctual, not missing deadlines and keeping customers happy.
Try to reach office before time. Have a positive attitude and do not let things drag up to the deadline and then jump in to get it done in a fast flurry at the end. Do not spend a lot of time on personal phone calls. Never gossip while at work as your employer is paying you to work. Always be productive and get your work done on time and move on to the next thing as quickly as possible.
Dress well and be confident. Volunteer or be active in projects to get the job done , and don’t worry about who gets credit. Be a team player. Stay late when required. Offer junior employees guidance and encouragement.
Never argue with your boss as his opinion is always right for him. A good employee is always dependable and trustworthy. He has tact and decorum and if there is a problem in the office he deals with such issues with privacy and diplomacy. Last but not the least, a great employee has a great attitude and he helps to make work easy for everyone else by having a good spirit about his job.
