Be a Good Listener

Everyone is eager to be understood, eager to express but forget to be a good listener. In fact, as the old saying – loose lips sink ships. People talks much tend to make more mistakes, and those good listeners can collect more useful information and do better in the workplace.

Learn to understand others

If you want to be understood, you must first learn to understand others. It’s important to develop the habit of putting yourself in others’ shoes to achieve a good communication effect. As people often say, know yourself as well as the enemy.

Think Before Taking Actions

In real life, it’s not uncommon to see someone does one job several times and the result is still not good, while another people may do the same thing very well at once. This difference might be caused by the way of working. Before doing things, you should first establish the right way of thinking, draw up a plan to fulfill each task, make proper preparations, and then finish the task according to priorities.

Always Finish What You Start

At work, you should always finish what you start. Otherwise it’s hard to develop a sense of responsibility nor to be trusted by other colleagues. Especially in a collaborative project, it is the most basic professional quality to do your job well on time.

Always Be Punctual

Being punctual is about respecting your colleagues and the work itself. Make sure you have a temporal plan and follow close to it. Don’t waste your time as well as other people’s time. Only when everyone does this can work efficiency be guaranteed. Imagining that you’re working with others or having meeting with clients, not being punctual will not only slow down the progress of the whole project, but also make the other party doubt your, or even the whole company’s attitude and professionalism.
