The mistake most industrious and hardworking staff is that they feel that their hard work and diligence is clear to everyone, including the director. In fact, successful and confident moving up the career ladder reach only those who know how to present themselves favorably. The truth is that the leaders of the once delve into the intricacies of fine work of employees of his company, he has no idea of who and what really works and makes its conclusions based on personal observations. And how do you think he can thus see? That's right - only those who are on the tip of his nose. From this rule - if you want to get noticed, apply to this effort. You have to be my boss in sight: to attend corporate meetings, ask them questions and make suggestions. Only, of course, all of this must be done correctly and to the point, otherwise you will draw attention to themselves, but with diametrically opposite effect.
Take a job that seems to be severe or even failure. Naturally, this should be done several times thinking, and also in front of the director. If you offer to work for his department head, he, of course, will be grateful to you, but the director of this your merit may never know. And then, when your head will increase, you'll wonder how it happened, while they themselves have raised it in the eyes of their superiors. Therefore, if you undertake to perform something totally impossible, discuss it directly with the director. Typically, employees are able to pull the notoriously rotten projects are very appreciated, so if you really succeed, can count on the rise.
Never gossip about superiors! As corny as it sounds, and the walls have ears. In any team can create an employee who will give great pleasure to your every word to the Director or his deputy. So, no matter how trust was not your conversation, keep your mouth shut. Perhaps the most innocent your statement can then be misinterpreted and used against you.
If you have news before reporting it to the Director, think. People like those who bring good news, and those who bring bad debts then hate. So if you already have the honor to refer to the court the chief of the paper for a few million, be wise and leave them by the secretary. Chief of comfort you are unlikely to be able to, but the cause of his bad mood - easily. If the firm was something good about what will be pleased to know the director, try to be the one to tell him the good news. It does not matter if it does not concern you personally, the main thing - that you are happy together.
If you show the leadership that is committed to working for the good of the company, you want to improve something and spoiling for a fight, you will notice very soon begin to move up the career ladder. Be firm, your luck is in your hands.
