Features: To succeed in the workplace, you must possess various skills and work diligently; you had better keep your eyes open, recognize reality, and cultivate several appropriate attitudes. This way, you can work smarter and achieve success more quickly. The author of this book has worked in large enterprises for many years, rising from the grassroots to a senior executive position in a global company. His insights are highly practical and sensible:
★ You can't outsmart your boss. You can argue reasonably, but you must accept your boss's final decision.
★ Be polite to your boss's spouse or partner. Treat them as senior executives in the company, as they may hold significant power over your career.
★ Treat this job as your own, not something you're renting. This way, you won't complain or vent your grievances everywhere.
★ Resign the right way. Treat resignation as a major project and handle it professionally with a professional attitude.
★ Be realistic when asking for a raise. There are plenty of smart people out there, and employers want smart and practical individuals.
★ Don't make excuses for failure. Hiding a bad situation won't earn you extra points—don't waste your time doing so. Instead, be honest so your boss can take corrective action.
★ Hire slowly but correctly, fire quickly but accurately. To find the best talent, be willing to spend time searching.
