Excerpts of good sentences
I really like characters like water. Water is sometimes very perseverant and can drip through stones. Water in the sea can be wild and violent, with turbulent waves; water in a stream can flow quietly and slowly.
Ability is the result of communication plus professional knowledge and work mentality. The lack of any one of these three elements will lead to insufficient ability.
Share your thoughts after reading:
Lee: I will share my loopholes in upward management by using cases from work. When asking for instructions, be sure to avoid "taking things for granted" and "I assume." Even if you can make the decision, you must ask your superiors for instructions, because you cannot deprive your superiors of their power. Failure to ask for instructions is a deprivation of power. Use "boss thinking" to learn to think from others' perspective.
Grace: Agree with your boss on the time to report. If you are well prepared, discuss it with your leader and use the shortest possible time to get the key points out. If a problem is raised, bring a solution and provide A, B, and C for the superior to choose from.
Susan: Take the initiative to report your work situation. Don’t wait for your boss to ask before reporting. Reporting can give your boss a sense of security and let her know the progress of the project at any time. Establish a reporting mechanism. The book shares 5 contents for proactive reporting: progress, needs , performance, surprises and difficulties, suggestions and planning. Seize every opportunity to report to your superiors. Opportunities are earned through initiative.
Jane: Actively adapt to the boss's communication style and preferences, and form a mutually dependent and complementary relationship with the boss. The 9 steps shared in the book to clarify reporting ideas can be used as a reference. When reporting, remember to be concise, clear, and logical.
Freya: Analyze your boss’s leadership style and adapt to your boss’s leadership style. For bad news, the sooner you report it, the better. If you delay the opportunity by not reporting in time, the consequences will be even worse. Sending messages in one direction is not communication. The complete communication process includes three contents: sending information, receiving information and feedback information.
Jolie: The principle of upward management and the concept of customer service are the same, that is, treat your boss as your VIP customer! Just like an excellent salesperson when facing a customer, he will not passively wait for the customer to provide information. Instead, he will analyze and speculate on the customer, collect relevant information about the customer, find the customer's real purpose or what he needs, and then Take the initiative. At the same time, maintain a stable mentality to communicate and achieve the desired results.
Jessy: Obedience is not submissive. The job of obeying your boss is based on respect for your boss. Many people will not understand upward management just by looking at the title of the book. After entering the workplace, they will find that it is worth learning and using as a reference book.
Niki: Let’s raise the topic of whether ability or trust is more important. To win the trust of leaders, we must understand and realize the boss’s intentions and expectations, and implement them to the end. In business, trust is often more important than ability. In the workplace, we should strive to be brave enough to take on responsibilities, improve our capabilities, and gain the trust and recognition of our superiors.
Joey: Understand your boss’s personality and complement her. You can see her strengths and make up for her shortcomings in time. Before you report on your work or discuss an issue, consider your communication method. There are three principles for reporting work. Reporting should be done when the boss is in a good mood. When applying for decision-making, the time should be chosen when the boss is not busy. Different contents have different optimal communication times.
Alice: How to report work correctly requires knowing what type of person your leader is, and then how you can satisfactorily resolve the matters he assigned to you. At the same time, you must also understand the personality of your subordinates and communicate efficiently. Learn to fill positions. An employee who is good at filling positions is the most indispensable in the workplace. Many people want to be promoted in the workplace and get a salary increase. So how do they change their ideals from "what do I want" to "what do I want?" You want to get something by doing something."
