Template to talk to your bosses (Job Series):25

 (Photo source:pexels.com)  

 All these years, I have observed people how they talk to their bosses in closed-door meetings. There is a certain template worth mentioning that takes them to higher echelons of power. Well, there is a stark difference in approach in an open meeting. This is so strange. When you observe these people, you will find their rise to higher up. Am I sure of this thing? I may be not but I strongly feel there is a connection.

 Well, this is a kind of template sometimes it will work wonders with normal people and will not affect them at all in case of an anomaly. Anomalies do exist and it's your luck. 

So, coming to the point, these people start by saying good things about the boss; his recent quests and achievements. This is the way that they try to prepare a fertile ground. Then, they start talking about their recent works in line with his liking. If you do not have it, you are to find it anyway. Everyone finds something flashy to talk about. 

When people grow old, they get involved in work because there is much left in their personal lives. Some may have extravagance here also. Commonly, it is rare. So, the bosses are more into work. Moreover, once you grow old, you become money-minded, you need promotions, power and increments all the time to keep the circus running. It happens to all. Once you reach a position of power, you like people who can deliver so that you can get benefits. You tend to like people who at least say something in tandem with his liking. It suits his needs above all.  It sounds crude but it is what it is. Then, you can go on with your jargon.

Neither good nor bad (Job Series): 24

 
(Photo source:pexels.com)  
 
In offices, people come from different backgrounds. They may be diverse in language, culture, ethnicity or come what may be, they are all similar in one aspect which is self-interest. People are driven by it and always will be. Anyone who wishes to think otherwise is free to think. The outside world is not as rosy as we think.

Many people try to take moral high grounds regarding it but everyone has a weak point. Sooner or later, everyone conforms to the surrounding human folks. Whenever interests align people find themselves on good terms with others. As soon as it vanishes, the common ground also disappears. Many feel lonely in this complex world. One needs to be mentally strong to endure such things and keep going.
 
Hence, I have mentioned that these days, the people around us are neither good nor bad. It is just grey. To mingle with the folks, one has to keep these things in mind. You cannot get anything done unless and until you make him count thousands of benefits out of that choice. 

Many a time, you might find it pretty useless. It is how you navigate these days.

Team work and its illusion (Job series):23

 


(Photo source:pexels.com) 

After many years of service, I have done many assignments in groups. As an experienced person, my assessment is that teamwork is just an illusion. Most of the work is done by a few members and the rest of the members just piggy ride on them. It is what I saw in my case but it may vary according to culture to culture and country to country.

Well, many people in the team think that they would equally contribute but practically it does not happen. As the deadline approaches, someone in the team whoever is more responsible chickens out and does the job and the rest just enjoy the fruit.

Over time, the member who contributes more becomes a grumpy man as he takes most of the responsibility. It fills his mind with all kinds of negativity towards the team. Well, this is the truth. If you are a contributing member, you need not worry much because someone always keeps track of everything. People can lobby and get things by sweet talks but they cannot bring competitiveness & efficiency to the table. It is acquired by hard work and rigorous grinding. Sooner or later, people have to pick you up because they have no option but to select the competent one. People who talk much are for show but for practical things, you get the people who are expert. In my service life, I have experienced it. Even the ones from whom you do not expect anything will field you because of your completeness. It seems odd but everyone wants things well managed below them. So, whenever, you find yourself in such a situation of working alone, you think that you are working for yourself and nothing else. It is the truth.
