Keep track of the tasks you complete

By Sherill | February 21, 2009

One of the best things you can do to validate your performance is to keep a record of the tasks you accomplish. You are naturally always assigned a certain number of tasks in a certain time frame, then given a deadline for each of for the whole lot. You record should detail these tasks, when they’re due, and the date you submitted or finished them. You can talk to your immediate superior or manager to arrange that he or she sign your record to validate each task’s completion. Having a record may also motivate you to work harder, as you will also need to record any late submissions or tasks you failed to accomplish on time. So when you ask for a promotion, you can present this record, and especially if you’re doing more than what is required of you, you might just get that promotion you’ve always wanted.

No Promotion - Maybe You are the Reason

By Administrator | January 30, 2009

insecurePeople tend to mope at the fact that they have been at the same desk jobs for almost all of their employed lives and is one of the causes of discontent among the ranks but the reasons may be staring them in the face all along. They themselves may have been the reason for their lack of promotion opportunities with dismal performance and lack of drive. Banking is an industry that relies on reliability and a lot of accounting background which are two different areas, independent of each other. Being a hard worker means nothing if you have lack of experience in your communication skills and having excellent communication skills without even the most basic knowledge of accounting principles also has the same effect. Be eager to learn and ask management if any programs are in place for such training and re-training. All industries benefit from re-training programs where you can take the initiative to excel and learn a new skill. Nobody knows too much and everybody, yep even you needs to brush up from time to time.

Need a Promotion - Have you considered asking?

By Sherill | December 25, 2008

Climbing the LadderMany who complain about lack of job advancement simply fail to realize a fact that sometimes, you just have to go and get your dreams. You’ve worked hard and did all you can for the company, but still you’re stuck in the same old desk since you can remember. Some bosses do this on purpose to see if you are bold enough to ask for a better job, while others simply fail to notice your hard work.
It takes courage to do so and timing is also essential(now might not be the good time to push your weight around due to the bad economic conditions), so try to get the best possible time like when the company is out hiring for a higher position you might be qualified to do. Try to make your qualifications known and present them to the respective people when openings arise. You might just get the dream job you’ve always wanted, with a small nudge that is.

Getting to the top of the corporate ladder entails responsibilities and just to be able to get their is not something as easy as doing your groceries. It takes more than just good looks either. You will always hit dead ends somewhere along the way. Many obstacles will derail you from the track towards your desired position. You need to work on things and you need to be smart. You should never have disagreements with the higher management. Even if your point of view is correct, it is just not wise to contradict them at the moment. You need to develop others talents and be able to work as a team effectively. Lastly, you need to be respected. And you must earn it, not force it to your co workers.

Some professionals have stayed on doing the same stuff, having the same job position and the same compensation for the longest time and are now wondering if a step up in the corporate ladder will ever be feasible or an impossible feat. They might be wondering, why no promotion even if they work their butts out. Punctual, submits reports on time and make great friends in the workplace and yet, no promotion knocking on their door. It is important to know that there are ways to get that job promotion or the salary increase you have waited for a long time to come. You dont need to give your supervisors expensive gifts, though this might be tempting to do. What you should do is evaluate yourself honestly, in terms of work. You may have been in the workforce for a decade but hadn’t done anything relevant so as to catch the higher-ups’ attention. Try to think how you accept new assignments and how you do in crunch times. Do you whine and make bad remarks? Really think hard, maybe the answer to your endless wondering is just right under your nose.
