Facts About the Workplace


Facts About the Workplace

1. Professional Boundaries: Your boss is not your friend. No matter how close you become, maintain professional boundaries.

2. Confidentiality: Be cautious about whom you confide in at work. A seemingly attentive listener might also be prone to gossip.

3. Results-Oriented: Your employer cares about results. How you achieve your tasks is up to you; excuses are not acceptable.

4. Office Informants: There is often someone keeping the boss informed about office happenings. Their reports might extend beyond official matters, unless the work culture explicitly discourages this. Stay aware.

5. Warning Signs: Being withdrawn from projects, having someone understudy you, or getting demoted without clear reasons might signal that you are being considered for termination.

6. Privacy: Keep your personal life private from colleagues. Your achievements outside work could be scrutinized without your knowledge.

7. Acceptance: Not everyone will like you, whether it's due to your appearance, manner of dress, speech, abilities, or accomplishments. Accept this reality.

8. Non-Verbal Cues: Pay attention to body language, tone, pitch, and pace of voice from your team, colleagues, or boss. These non-verbal cues often communicate emotions and attitudes more than words do.

9. Learning from Peers: There will always be an exceptional colleague who excels and receives recognition. Instead of feeling inadequate, observe their methods and learn from them to improve yourself.

10. Primary Focus: While building positive relationships at work is important, your main goal is to complete your job tasks and go home. Remember this priority.
