Office Success And Survival Tips

[kissing_bandit2]

based on experience, this is dictated by the culture of the company.. there are companies who promote based on performance.. some on seniority... but of course, it all depends on the politics involved..

 

i prefer not to get promoted to be honest just as long as i get yearly increases.. once you get promoted, the amount of s**t you deal with increases tremendously..

I agree! It really depends on the culture and structure of the company. Kung lahat kayo magagaling e di naman pwede kayo lahat maging manager. Siguro you'll be better rewarded but not promoted. Btw, seniority also connotes to business knowledge, pwedeng yun ang maging basis.

 

Just my thoughts...

to be promoted into management,

it is OF PRIME IMPORTANCE, to SUCK UP to MANAGEMENT.

Hardwork and lot of patience! Love what you do and show passion in it!

 

A must: stay away from gossipers and rumor-mongerers! Refrain from backstabbers and fair-weathered friends & colleagues. I doubt it, though, considering Pinoy's crab mentality!

I've had my share of successes and failures:

 

(1) Never mistake activity for accomplishment, just because you're doing something doesn't mean you're accomplishing something - accomplishments get rewarded.

 

(2) Take care of your People (function of character)

 

(3) Continue building competence

 

(3) Watch your peers, Do what they do plus more

 

If all fails, there's always LUCK - right boss, right time, right place.....

 

Just another observation, if you do get promoted, there are only 2 things that can happen....(1) if you deserve it, you excel and grow further and (2) if you don't deserve it, you'll get sick and die. After all, you can only get promoted up to your level of incompetence.

don't base your decisions on its popularity.. it should be a matter of how righteous it is

how do you deal with backstabbers in the office?

Best piece of advice I ever received: cover your ass at all times.

Passion and being politically correct all the time! And work as if you're not working.

[strong_cock]

Know your job, worry about "your" job, aim high...

 

I find that no matter how many backstabbers, gossip mongrels, ass lickers etc... as long as you do your job, you'll be ok.

 

Less talk, less problems...

 

The workplace practice overseas is very different from the Philippines. You worry about yourself abroad and do not worry about others because they do not worry about you.When it comes to bread and butter, in here there's no such thing as "friends". We also don't have loyalty award programs...and yes, we have more backstabbers here... =)

THE 10 COMMANDMENTS OF WORKING FOR OTHERS:

 

1. DON'T LIE. It's a waste of time. I'm sure to catch you in the end and that's the wrong end.

 

2. WATCH YOUR WORK, NOT THE CLOCK.

 

3. GIVE ME MORE THAT I EXPECT AND I'LL GIVE YOU MORE THAN YOU EXPECT. I can afford to increase your pay only if you increase my profits.

 

4. YOU OWE SO MUCH TO YOURSELF THAT YOU CANNOT AFFORD TO OWE ANYBODY ELSE.

 

5. DISHONESTY IS NEVER AN ACCIDENT. Good men and women never see temptation when they meet it.

 

6. MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS and in time you'll have your own business to mind.

 

7. DON'T DO ANYTHING TO HURT YOUR SELF-RESPECT. An employee who is willing to steal for me is willing to steal from me.

 

8. IT IS NOT MY BUSINESS WHAT YOU DO AT NIGHT UNLESS IT AFFECTS YOUR PRODUCTIVITY DURING THE DAY. If you do only half as much as I expect, you'll last half as long as you hope.

 

9. DON'T TELL ME WHAT I LIKE TO HEAR. Tell me instead what I need to hear.

 

10. DON'T KICK IF I KICK. If you're worth correcting, it's because you're worth keeping.
