Deal with the workplace and see clearly your own abilities.

Deal with the workplace and see clearly your own abilities.

See clearly your ability in the workplace. I'll walk with you on the way to work. The key is to do your job well. If you don't study step by step, you won't achieve anything. Workplace, I'll take you to understand your workplace ability.

Look at your own workplace competence 1 Case 1: You can earn 5000 yuan a month with a low education.

Ning Meng, 23 years old, with a height of1.6m, graduated from a medical college in July 2008. Seeing some students walk into hospitals, some students walk into pharmacies, some students change careers, some students are unemployed at home, and their career prospects are not optimistic. I don't know how to choose at the moment. I thought when I first entered school, I chose a major I didn't like. I followed the advice of my family. Facing the current severe employment situation, the employment path of my major is very narrow and my diploma is very low. Xiao Ning's psychology is full of confusion about the future.

By asking for help from a career planner, she finally participated in a recruitment training course for a well-known cosmetics brand, and was successfully hired one month later to become a professional cosmetic beautician of the brand. After more than half a year's efforts, the current monthly salary has reached 5000 yuan, becoming the best among the students.

Expert comments:

1. Judging from Xiao Ning's professional skills, I have studied medical knowledge in school for three years, and my level is average, so I don't want to work in this major.

2. Judging from Xiao Ning's own conditions, she has a good figure, looks good, is young and self-motivated, and likes challenges.

Judging from Xiao Ning's employment psychology, she agrees with a fashionable and healthy lifestyle, has the enthusiasm and willingness to help others, and can accept a brand-new job.

4. Judging from the working environment in Xiao Ning, there are relatively few employment opportunities for pharmaceutical majors, and the employment prospects of female students are even less optimistic.

Finally, through sincere communication with her, career discussion, professional questionnaire on career planning and professional psychological test, Xiao Ning decided to enter the cosmetics industry. On the one hand, the medical professional knowledge I have learned can be brought into play at work, and I can further achieve my career and be better than others in the workplace. As a result, Xiao Ning did find her ideal career, which not only helped her find a job smoothly, but also allowed her to find room for personal career development.

Case 2: 28: The 28-year-old planning director is also at a loss.

Zhang Li, 28, graduated from university, majoring in fashion design. It stands to reason that at her age, she should have a stable job of her own and live a happy life. However, after five or six years and five or six jobs, she still has no sense of professional security that should belong to her, and she still can't find a career goal that she thinks is satisfactory. In desperation, after the recommendation and introduction of friends, she got up the courage to choose a career planner for help. With the help of a career planner, Zhang Li got rid of his inner anxiety, found a sense of professional security and successfully found a stable job.

Expert comments:

1. Judging from Zhang Li's professional ability, she studied fashion design and has the professional design ability of fashion.

2. Judging from Zhang Li's family employment environment, her parents are well-known artists, who are very concerned about all aspects of Zhang Li, giving extra care and support to her work, and have high expectations for her future development.

3. From Zhang Li's psychological point of view, due to the influence of her childhood family environment, she is arrogant, unable to adapt to the general working environment, and has high personal requirements. She has always hoped that she can reap the success in her career as soon as possible, show her talents better and give her family a perfect explanation.

So for many years, Zhang Li has been looking for job opportunities that can give full play to his self-worth. She has worked as a quality supervisor, designer and sales manager of a clothing company, a designer of a clothing exhibition company, and even opened her own clothing store. However, the more she worked, the more she felt that she was far from her goal and could not see her future. When she was in a bad mood, she also thought about running away from home and seeking development in other places.

The main reasons for this situation in Zhang Li are: the cognitive deviation of the outside world and oneself, and the inability to objectively and fairly combine one's professional quality with one's professional ability, so as to determine the direction of career development. Through analysis, she finally made clear the work that suits her major and can give full play to her specialty-brand clothing sales planning. Soon, through personal efforts, she was promoted to the position of planning director.

Workplace expert analysis:

Competency is the inner core of career development of people in the workplace. Whether you are qualified for your post will directly affect the actual performance of learning, thinking, judging and solving problems, and also determine the potential to move towards high-end career goals. Different occupations require different abilities. For example, R&D personnel need good logical thinking ability, doctors need more keen observation ability, and journalists need thinking ability besides keen observation ability. If you don't have the ability to do something, no matter how much effort and diligence you may put in, it will have little effect.

The most important thing for women entering the workplace to succeed is to have a clear positioning of themselves and know whether they are competent for the job. Secondly, when entering the workplace for the first time, we should also pay special attention to the matching of majors and occupations. Everyone has his own specialties, for example, some people have strong language skills and are good at expressing their ideas and opinions; Some people have strong mathematical ability and can calculate, reason and solve problems quickly. Therefore, more women in the workplace will choose related occupations according to their own specialties, foster strengths and avoid weaknesses, and give full play to their advantages.

This can not only achieve twice the result with half the effort at work, but also enhance women's core competitiveness and position advantages in the workplace in a relatively easy way in the fierce competition, and better realize their own values.

See clearly your professional competence 2 1. Cherish and treat every blank page of your paper well.

There is a little story about this.

Shortly after I started working, I once went to the general manager's office to send him the minutes of the meeting. I spent a lot of time and energy to write this summary. Even after working, I'm still thinking about how to write best. The manuscript was revised many times, and finally I thought it could be taken out, so I sent it to the general manager for his review.

In the past, the general manager praised my writing style, so every time he sent him a document, he liked to talk to me and say a few words of encouragement, and this time was no exception.

After reading the document, the general manager said, "Xiao Zhao, your meeting minutes are well written. The expression is basically in it, and the organization is very clear. I can copy and distribute it after signing it. I find that your writing level has improved recently. Practice hard, there is still a long way to go. Do you know that?/You know what? Do you know that?/You know what? White papers are very important for white-collar workers. Don't underestimate every blank sheet of paper in front of you. A management guru once said: A white-collar worker's life is the superposition of white papers. The better and more white papers you write, the greater your contribution to the organization and society, because our work has to deal with white papers every day. Even electronic documents are reflected in the white paper. Therefore, we should be kind to every blank piece of paper in our hands, because it is the embodiment of our thoughts and abilities and also represents our opportunities. If you write well, you can easily get appreciation, recognition and opportunities. Therefore, I hope that you will think about this sentence when writing every document in the future, which will help you. "

I walked out of the general manager's office with gratitude, and I was still thinking about what he just said. This is really a sobering feeling.

Yes, as a knowledge worker, who doesn't express some of his thoughts, opinions and suggestions in white paper to the computer every day, and then show them to those who need them to read and use? The more the ideas and opinions we express in the white paper meet the requirements of users, the more they can be recognized by everyone, and the more and better job opportunities we can get, write more important copies and show them to more important people.

However, if we usually don't care about the blank paper and the feelings of users, then what we write will be difficult to be recognized by others, and others will also form a bad impression on us. Then, it will be difficult for us to improve our level, our grades and our chances of progress, until no one asks us. At that time, the problems we face may be eliminated by the organization. With this state, we will enter the next organization, and the result is certain.

This view has influenced me for many years and has been used until now. Since then, I have attached great importance to every document I submitted. Even if it is a simple notice, I will take it seriously, consider every detail, and write the white paper in front of me as beautiful and thick as possible.

Later, I shared this view with others, and someone wrote me an email saying, "Thank you, I am very inspired, and your article will definitely help me in my future work." Hearing this, my heart is warm, good. The viewpoint is that it should be shared with more people, so that everyone who knows can gain strength from these words and improve their workplace competence.

After entering the consulting industry, I came into contact with another saying: the consciousness of final draft. It is said that every document written by a consultant should have the consciousness of final draft, and treat it as a document that can be directly communicated with customers, instead of waiting for the project manager and director to check it for you. At least there should be no low-level mistakes such as typos and language confusion. More importantly, the contents of the document should not be piled up with knowledge and materials, but should be written in combination with the actual situation of the enterprise, reflecting the needs of customers, with clear ideas and easy-to-understand solutions. It is best to do every PPT well.

This is actually an upgraded version of the "white paper theory." The consciousness of final draft allows us to look at each task at a higher level and write more valuable white papers.

2. Grasp the balance between production capacity and products.

This view comes from Steve Finkovich, who tells the story of a farmer and a golden goose in Seven Habits of Highly Effective People.

A farmer accidentally got a goose that laid golden eggs. The goose lays a golden egg for the farmer every day, and soon the farmer becomes rich. Living conditions have been greatly improved, and neighbors are envious of farmers. With the improvement of farmers' life, his greed is getting bigger and bigger, and one golden egg a day can no longer meet his requirements. The farmer thought, if I killed the goose and took out all the golden eggs in its belly, wouldn't I have a lot of golden eggs? The farmer prides himself on his cleverness. So he killed the golden goose. As a result, there were no golden eggs in the goose's stomach, and the goose died. He could no longer produce golden eggs for farmers. The life of farmers began to decline and returned to the old road.

Covey said that efficiency is the result of the balance between production capacity and products. Here, golden goose represents productivity and golden egg represents products. Farmers kill golden geese, and without production capacity, it is impossible to continue to produce golden eggs, so efficiency is impossible.

Covey further extended this view. For large enterprises, if they do not pay attention to the maintenance and growth of production capacity and blindly pursue the output of products, it will inevitably lead to the decline of benefits. For example, in order to increase production, they will constantly start machinery and equipment without maintaining them or buying new ones. Machinery and equipment will inevitably face the danger of collapse after running for a certain period of time. If the machinery and equipment can't work, the products can't continue to be output, and the benefits of the enterprise will be gone.

The same is true for individuals. If we blindly pursue the results of our work and neglect our own learning, our knowledge, skills and experience will not be effectively improved, and we will be at a loss in the face of new situations and problems.

In work and life, people pursue products unilaterally, ignoring the maintenance of production capacity everywhere, and so does the workplace.

As a professional, in addition to daily work and completing tasks within the scope of duties, we should pay more attention to self-renewal, learn new knowledge and skills, gain new experience, comprehensively improve our own quality and productivity, so as to be effective and produce new results in the face of new situations.

I remember a management scholar said that there are only two kinds of activities in this world, one is to transform the subjective world, that is, learning, and the other is to transform the objective world, that is, work. Study and work constitute the whole of our life. Learning is the most effective way to improve our productivity. Only by improving our productivity through study can we produce better results and make greater progress.

Therefore, as an efficient professional, we must pay attention to the balance between production capacity and products. After intense work, don't forget to study, gain knowledge, skills and experience through study, and comprehensively improve your production capacity and work efficiency.

3, improve the structural ability

The so-called structural ability is a generalization of a person's comprehensive ability and a concentrated expression of his learning ability, thinking ability, planning ability, leadership ability, execution ability and other abilities and qualities. In other words, when facing a task or problem, a person can think from many aspects, deeply analyze the causes of the problem, make an action plan systematically, and take appropriate measures to carry out the work efficiently and achieve high performance. When you have these abilities, you will have structural abilities, which will greatly help you improve your workplace ability.

To improve the structural ability, we should do the following work:

First, plan your career reasonably.

Reasonable career planning is the forerunner of "structured" work. When a clear career promotion route is in front of you, you will be more aware of what you lack, what knowledge you need to learn, and what ability you need to strengthen, thus prompting you to learn to recharge, constantly looking for challenging job opportunities, allowing you to constantly exercise and improve yourself, improve work efficiency and skills, and lay a solid foundation for higher-level development.

Maybe you don't understand what career planning is. Maybe career planning is too profound and complicated for you. It doesn't matter. There are two options. One is to turn to the internet and type "career planning" in the searcher, so that you can get help quickly and have a clear understanding of it. If you don't want to do this, then the second way is to look at the organization chart of the company and look at your current position. Maybe you will say that I don't know anything about career planning and don't want to do what I am doing now, so I suggest you change your favorite position and repeat the above two items.

Second, the "structured" knowledge system.

Learning provides knowledge preparation for you to improve your structural ability.

Learning to charge and being competent in the workplace go hand in hand. In this era of knowledge explosion and experience depreciation, learning is as important as the bread you need every day. If you stop studying, you choose to regress, which is very terrible.

At the same time, if you only study what the job requires and don't ask about things outside the job, then your structural ability can't be greatly improved.

Combine your career planning, make corresponding study plans, constantly supplement knowledge supply, and first structure your knowledge system, so as to help you improve your ability of structured thinking and action.

For example, the learning plan of an active information administrator can't be just some simple information management knowledge, and can't be satisfied with solving small problems such as computer crashes for colleagues. Instead, it should be promoted to the height of systematic information construction, from computer expert to information construction expert, so that your structural ability can be continuously improved and your promotion will be more promising.

Third, improve the system thinking ability.

In the process of work, don't dabble in the problems that appear, but get to the bottom of it, think systematically, delve into the causes of the problems, and ask the reasons after finding them until you find the root of the problems. This is actually structured systematic thinking. When you find the root of the problem, then make a structured solution and solve the problem systematically, so as to exercise and improve your structural ability.

Fourth, formulate a structured action plan.

In the past, the concept was "don't sit here, just act quickly", but now this concept is out of fashion and replaced by "don't act in a hurry, sit down and think about it and do it again". The difference between them lies not in the change of statement, but in the profound philosophy. The more fashionable view is that the accuracy and perfection of the plan is much more important than the quickness of action. Time management experts say, "The longer you spend planning, the shorter it will take you to finish the work.". There is a proverb in the west, "If you can't walk with your feet, you can walk with your head." That's also a truth, that is, to remind you not to be reckless, but to have ideas and plans, even multiple sets of plans.

From this perspective, it is more important to make a structured action plan than to act in a hurry. Whether a structured action plan can be made is also one of the important signs to test a person's comprehensive ability. When you can structure a plan, accurately locate all the elements it should contain, accurately describe and locate the goals to be achieved, the operating procedures of the plan, the responsibilities of the executors and supervisors, the implementation progress and timetable of the plan, and the acceptance criteria of the plan. Your structural ability will be improved and you will be led.

Fifth, "re-create" the action plan.

Covey said, "Everything must be created twice, once in thought and once in behavior". The so-called mental creation is to think systematically and make an action plan, and the so-called behavioral creation is to put the action plan into practice and make it become a reality from desire.

When the structured action plan is approved for implementation, all you need to do is do everything possible to make the impossible possible. In this process, you may face the pressure of negative factors such as doubt, confrontation and non-cooperation, but you can't give up. You should resist the pressure, constantly eliminate external interference, resolve conflicts, keep in touch with people from all walks of life, actively create a working atmosphere of unity and cooperation, and strive to earn "extra points" for the smooth implementation of the action plan, so that the action plan can finally be realized.

When you finish the "second creation", your structural ability will be proved by your performance, and the road to promotion will be more open.

Conclusion: The above aspects are some of my experiences in my work and spiritual supplies that have always helped me grow up. I hope they can help you improve your workplace ability!
