How To Have Job Security & Make Your Boss Love You!
This is such an exciting topic. I love to see people
encouraged in their jobs and to feel love towards their daily work and the
company. Many have found the following to be powerful in learning to enjoy and
become more effective in their work, and for supervisors to determine who
should stay, who should go, and who should be moved to another area within the
company.
1. Show a sense of urgency
Do things the right way. When you face a "lazy
streak" avoid the urge to take "easy street".
2. Show a positive effect
Are your co-workers excited to see you at the beginning of
the day, or do they duck into the ladies restroom when you walk in the door? Do
your thoughts, words, and actions lift and build others?
3. Show a willingness to do more
Beat 50% of the competition for your job by working hard.
Beat 40% by being a person of integrity. Do you pick up paper or trash off the
floor, even in someone else's area or space?
4. Show unique skills that you bring to your company
Along with the skills that you offer, this also includes the
willingness to grow and change. Not either or, but, both. When you walk in the
door on Monday morning do you feel like you are working a job or fulfilling a
mission with purpose?
Dr.
Wayne Dyer said it well. "When you change the way you look at things, the
things you look at change".
To consider this week: What are the wonderful things about my job that I was attracted to in the beginning? How can I add more value to my co-workers and to my company?
