Jaya Jagannath,
Let's all professionals
have this year's resolution of continue being one among the top
talents of our companies for the year 2008. The management review
meeting for performance appraisal will no more be a hot, rough and
scary discussion any more. Believe me Lord Sri Jagannath will favor
each and every Oriyans to have a great time during performance
review and supreme God Sri Jagannath's own wife Goddess Laxmi will
start following the salary appraisal hence further. Please don't
forget to chant "Jai Jagnnath" closing your eyes for a moment and
recall his face once before entering the performance review meeting
room. This will trigger a miracle, any negative remarks, complains
or regrets if your manager would have thought to grill upon will
instantly get omitted and the whole review will be a happy, healthy,
fun filled discussion only. Out come will be a huge hike in Salary
and a step up in designation to the next higher level. Trust me lord
Sri Jagannath is there for all his devotees who prays him during
trouble.
Tricks to be the best professional in an organization :
Here comes a few simple steps that triggers in creation of a massive
impression about all Oriya IT professionals among employers and
recruiters. This will not only make us boost our performance, but
also will build up a wave a of curiosity among recruiters and
employers to pick up all our unemployed Oriya brothers and sisters
from the market. No more Oriyans from our mother land will ever sit
unemployed struggling for a job. Let's be the best and thus prepare
a ground that will help us get appreciated for ever. There is a
saying:
"Don't lower your expectations to meet your
Performance, RAISE your Performance to meet your Expectations"
Great then, let's all get molded to again be the top talents of our
companies. Following are the few simple steps that if followed will
definitely add us an edge over the rest. Let's cultivate and nourish
all our new joining Oriya IT professionals to set this trend too.
All it costs is a bit of Honesty at work, Dedication and
responsiveness to our assignments along with the priceless blessings
of our ever beloved god Lord Sri Jagannath.
1. First of all our day at
office should start with a great value of Sincerity. Let's all make
our mind up to be in office well before time every day, all days,
every day. A decent dressed formal and professional look not only
values our personality but also magnifies our self confidence.
Believe me a smart looking man or a decent looking sober lady is
always approached, appreciated and followed as a icon by all. Let's
we be the ones ahead of all in this regard. Let's all Oriyans be
clearly distinguished in our organization as the brightest, straight
and cleanest handsome guys and pretty ladies.
2. With a brief implore to Sri
Jagannath and a small whisper chant of "Jai Jagannath", let's swing
into our work with a recharged vibration and energy. Wish if all of
us can download a picture of Lord Sri Jagannath on our desktops and
save the same as wall papers on desk top. Believe me if lord
Jagannath will be behind all our open applications and screens he
will never let us do mistakes in work.
3. With a cute smile on face and
a fun filled jubilant mind let's start our work with a complete
undisturbed concentration and attention. Another best practice is,
from this new year onwards let's every one of us practice a habit of
referring at least 5 resumes of our job searching Oriya brothers and
sisters per day to our internal job referral portal. If one thousand
among us will internally refer 5 resumes per day for one month at
least, I bet we will cover all Oriyans who are still struggling for
job and thus all our unemployed Oriya friends will start getting at
least 10 calls per day per head. That's more than enough for them,
the real talents will get picked up and others will get motivated to
brush up further for the same. Thus we won't have any more of our
Oriya brothers and sisters unemployed struggling for job at all.
Over that we will also be benefited with Employee referral bonus
too. It's a win win for all of us.
4. Let's add the best values of
decency, politeness and soft speaking motivation skills to each and
every words of our communication. This will not only boost and
motivate the front person to get associated with your work, but also
will create a like minded politics free environment and a real team
work habitat.
5. Understand the complete
functionality of the assignment before start working on it. If
possible initiate for brief reverse presentation sessions with
colleagues and other stake holder to ensure all in the same page of
techno functional understanding before starting the work.
6. During training sessions
completely devote to the trainer, Learn each and every bits of the
stuff and be shame less in asking any minute doubts and
clarifications.
7. Always make sure to do your work
ahead of the schedule. Plan in advance with the whole team to ensure
a early completion of task with few buffer days in hand. Never keep
any work pending till last day. Always use last buffer days for
value addition to a completed work.
8. Always it's better to have a
thorough review of each and every work that you do, if you are newly
joined in the company. Getting reviewed is for value additions only
and not to proof mistakes. Till the time you are not aligned with
the present employees of the company, get your deliverables
reviewed.
9. Enhance your communication
skills, leadership skills with your own personal initiatives. Learn
from superiors in the office. Follow their best practices, crisis
handling abilities, project management skills, Process adherence
skills, learn and implement the same in your day to day life. This
will tune your abilities in the same wave length and thus you can
also be able to do the same most efficiently in future.
10. Worried about being struck
with some thing which you don't know, here is a long term investment
for it. Try helping other colleagues as much as you can even if you
need to stretch out beyond office hours also. This will create an
environment of goodwill among colleagues which you can en-cash any
time when you are in trouble. Always build and maintain a set of
great friends who bears the same skill set and work nature both
inside your office and among your friend circle in other companies
too. This will provide you instant help incase you feel the work
tough.
11. Don't just do the work
that's assigned. Try to always think beyond it. Adding value to your
work by taking initiatives, innovations and following best practices
make the deliverable a state of the art one. This will directly
reflect in your Performance appraisal and of course your pay slip
too.
12. Learn the whole process
that's in place for your organization, the quality policy, implement
and realize the same in your day to day work and justify the
productivity. This makes you not only recognized as a smart working
process guy, buy also will uplift your image and face value as an
Icon of the company.
13. Be an active, energetic guy
always recharged and positive minded to accept any challenges. Never
say No to any thing. If you don't know ask for help but make sure
you do every thing which any other person can do. This will build up
your reputation as an one point focal to any one and every ones
tribulations.
14. Never ever get involved in
Politics in office. Try to avoid and even prevent people from doing
so. Have a positive mind set to sweeten the environment with a
professional good will. Be soft and sweet spoken and encourage
others to do so too.
15. It's a great habit to learn
other languages and try talking to people in their own mother
tongue. This will be extremely helpful for you to build a great team
spirit and friend's circle in Office.
16. Always find error in a work
and not in any person. Encourage and motivate people to realize
their responsibilities.
17. Be focused to work only
during office hours. Never get diverted by un official works during
office hours.
18. Be extremely caring for
other gender colleagues, never get involved personally, no emotions
and affection are acceptable in profession.
19. If at all you get free time
and are not loaded with assignments, then have a great time with
"Google". Learn some thing technical, your skill set related, a new
skill set. This will not only let you grow but also will add whole
together another dimension to your resume.
20. During parties and official
outings be within your own restrictions. Never loose your value and
never be uncontrolled.
Let's all promise to come up in life by aligning to all the best
practices of life. Let's prove the world that Oriya Professionals
are the best among the breeds in the world. Let's creat a revolution
of great reputation among recruiters and employers that will not
only help us in case we are looking for a change but also drive
along our Oriya brothers and sisters who are looking for a job. We
all know that in the present trend of Job marathon there is always
some one unemployed waiting out side the gate with a better skill to
replace you at a still cheaper rate. All we need to survive in the
current trend is to be the best of the rest, get united, organized
and march ahead in each and every steps of life.
