Build Your Action Plan

In this video, you will learn about the characteristics you should possess to shine in the workplace and be recognized for your professionalism. You should:
  1. Be Competent. Make sure you have the skills and knowledge to be good at what you do.
  2. Be Reliable and Honest.Make sure that people can depend on you to show up on time and meet deadlines. Tell the truth about what has been accomplished and what has not.
  3. Have Integrity. Stick to your principles no matter the circumstances.
  4. Make sure you respect others and support others. Treat all people in your workspace equally and make sure you acknowledge their success and shed the light on their achievements and guide them if they need help.
  5. Upgrade yourself. Research and be up to date with all the details related to your field.
  6. Be Positive. Have an upbeat optimistic approach and attitude.
  7. Staying Work-Focused. Keep your personal matters at home.
  8. Don’t forget. You should always take notes and make sure you are on top of all your tasks and tick off the tasks you have daily. “I forgot!” is for slackers and unreliable people.
If you abide to the above, you will convey all the professional characteristics of an employee. After all you don’t want to be like every fish in the sea. You need to shine and stand out to progress and move forward.
