A the end of the year transfer is not as expected, is Xiao Wang at fault?

"After three and a half years of work, the transfer is not as good as a meal, how can I do this job?" In the company's year-end summary meeting, hearing the company's HR read the promotion of staff Xiao Zhang noticed, sitting on the stage Xiao Wang looked very uncomfortable, and can not help but speak a few words of complaint.

The original story began last month. Salesmen Xiao Wang and Xiao Zhang joined a company at the same time, after joining, the two people work very hard, for the higher leadership arrangements down the work, can not say not to speak and quality and quantity to complete.

But there is one difference, Wang belongs to the "work-only" type, in his eyes, as long as the work is done well, everything else is fine. As for the relationship with the leadership, Wang does not seem to think, and always insisted that supporting the leadership of the work, is to maintain a good relationship with the leadership.

Zhang, on the other hand, is different, working hard at work, and interpersonal efforts. When other people around him want to give a hand and find him, Zhang is willing to respond to requests, for the upper and lower levels, involving the red and white wedding, he is trying to be there, and help with busy work. In his own words, "all day long, low head to see, later, may be able to use who."

Office Building

Near the end of the year, Zhang felt that the leadership of the department over the year, was very cared for, and it will be arranged for the leadership of a meal. At the dinner table, Zhang expressed his gratitude for the leadership's help in the work of the belt, at the same time, will also want to improve the idea of personal mention. The leader also expressed his recognition of Zhang's work status and achievements.

Since then, not much time has passed, and Xiao Zhang and Xiao Wang's department of a business director promoted to business manager, vacating a position. For the two people, workability is comparable, but Xiao ZZhang'sinterpersonal relations to deal with significantly better than Xiao Wang, plus, daily subordinates between the "emotional investment". Eventually, Zhang was promoted to the business director as he wished.

Second, can be transferred, is the difference is a meal outside of work?

In the workplace, it is difficult to rely only on the strong ability to work to fight the world, or you can say, it is difficult to eat away. This workability and performance are like a red flower, of course, important, but still needs better interpersonal relations as a green leaf to accompany, which will make the red flower extra bright and striking.

Specifically, those who do not focus on inviting leaders to dinner or moving around interpersonal contacts belong to the main "task" type. Like the beginning of Xiao Wang, such employees may be the kind of "two ears do not hear the workplace, a heart only know how to do the work" kind of leadership, the leadership has not been like this, but in general, will not reject. For, work can work, it also means that indirectly for his work to compete for glory and color.

But if such an employee goes to extremes, that is to say, for the leader himself to take a disdainful attitude, toward his work and other aspects, to take a contemptuous attitude and action, then, such an employee will be probable "cold".

And invite leaders or other people to dinner, this is just a good interpersonal relation reflection. Interpersonal communication, in addition to dinner and sending WeChat, like the circle of friends, people to send to participate in, etc., is the key to this interpersonal communication, and the exchange of awareness is very important.

But if such a person, only workability is indeed a big difference from the actual requirements, belonging to the poor Liu A Dou, then, even if eats more rice, under more bureau, the leadership will also be afraid of the ground, will not have any principles and bottom line for such a person to speak, for the shelter, unless such leadership does not want to continue to do.

Third, a sure transfer is to be able to handle both the desk, but also to set the "dining table"

Workplace recognition and even transfer, need to grasp the ground as a basic principle, or always to workability are the main, to social skills as a supplement, to make the ground is the icing on the cake rather than the cart before the horse.

As in the text of the salesman Xiao Zhang, the reason for the smooth transfer, the premise is the ability to work and performance and Wang is equal, if the difference is too great, then, I believe that the leadership will also be reconsidered and considered. How to do it specifically?

1. work proficient, so that the leadership is at ease

It is to be a competent person at the desk. For personal work scope of things inland, have their independent thinking and personal insights, and, have their high standard to complete the work of the method.

For example, the leader has a document on hand that needs to be completed, after understanding the main intention of the leadership, you can write independently according to the leadership's ideas, by the time frame proposed by the leadership to complete, even if it can not be made to pass at once, but can be slightly modified to achieve leadership satisfaction, which is a reflection of the ability to work.

This is a reflection of your ability to work. When similar work is handed to you, you will still be able to complete it on time, with quality and quantity. Then, this kind of stable output ability, and upgraded to let the leadership of the ability rests assured, the leadership will naturally to your high regard and love a point.

In this regard, you will need to be able to quietly focus on your daily work, cherish every opportunity to practice, ask more advice from veterans and experts in the industry, ask questions if you don't understand, practice diligently, and consistently polish your workability, so that you can achieve success in the long run.

2. Interpersonal fluency, so that the leadership smooth

You have to be a master at the dinner table. In the workplace, in addition to the work of the main repertoire, but also need to be supplemented by interludes, to make your workplace road, so that the leadership and their sound more pleasing to the ear.

Work process, to establish timely communication with the leadership. Leadership faces, often not only in the subordinates on modesty and courtesy, more mainly reflected in the subordinates to the leadership to ask for instructions and report.

When a job has its difficulties that can not be solved, when necessary to the leadership for advice, the leadership will think that this is a kind of respect and recognition for him; likewise, when a job is completed, the individual can make a report to it, more can make the leadership have a sense of control of the leadership.

After work, you should know how to contact the leader at the right time and the feelings between the ground, do not have to do it deliberately but do it smoothly, harmoniously, and naturally. For example, you alone or under the guidance of the leadership completed a certain work, at this time, you can use this as a reason to express your gratitude to the leadership in the form of a meal.

In this regard, it must be clear personal workplace position, no matter how strong personal ability, they are subordinate to say, as subordinate to make the thing, to avoid and the leadership of the top, top bull, no meaningful whining, but also to avoid.

Workplace growth and progress want to go fast, stable, work and interpersonal, like a bird's wings, the two wheels of the car, one cannot be without the other.
