I still remember the spring when I first started working, the sun was shining, and the birds were singing and the flowers were fragrant. I came to the unit with a dream and a desire to make a big difference here.
Gradually, I discovered that the interpersonal relationships in the unit were intricate, and the undercurrents of the Game of Thrones were surging. Everyone is harmonious on the surface, but they are thinking about something in their hearts.
I slowly groped and realized that if I want to get ahead here, strength alone is not enough, but I also need the appreciation and support of leaders. But how can the leader's mind be so easy to guess?
I saw that some colleagues were always able to please the leader just right, and they were promoted in three or two clicks. And more people have always been unknown, and they don't know when they will be able to wait for the day when they will come out.
Later, I gradually realized that in fact, the leader sent us a lot of signals, but we were stupid not to understand them at that time. It's like the sun has risen, but we are still wandering in our dreams.
I thought about it carefully and found that when a leader intends to promote someone, there are often these 9 signs:
First, leaders often praise your work ability and praise you in public. It's like a beacon in the ocean, guiding you in the right direction.
Second, the difficulty and importance of the tasks assigned to you by the leader begin to increase. It's a test of your potential to see if you can take on the big picture.
Third, the leader began to ask you about your thoughts on the company's development and asked for your opinion. This shows that the leader has begun to value your ideas.
Fourth, the leader allows you to participate in some high-level meetings, so that you have the opportunity to see a broader world. It's about building connections and experience for you.
Fifth, the leader entrusts you with some important transactional work, such as drafting documents, organizing activities, etc. This is a great time to exercise your comprehensive ability.
Sixth, the leader begins to care about your life and asks you how you are doing lately. This shows that you have attracted the special attention of the leadership.
Seventh, there are significantly more opportunities to talk alone with leaders, and the conversation time is also longer. Leaders want to know more about you as a person.
Eighth, some important information, the leader will tell you first. This means that the leader starts to trust you and treat you as a confidant.
Ninth, the leader will encourage you to report to him more from time to time, so that you can "go to him more". This is clearly giving you the green light!
In retrospect, there were several colleagues who were later promoted, and they all showed these signs to a greater or lesser extent. It's just that at that time, I naively thought that it was just an accident and didn't take it to heart at all.
When they were promoted, I woke up from a dream and regretted it. How many times have opportunities slipped away from me, only to blame me for being too slow to grasp in time!
How can there be so many opportunities to miss in life? Especially in the workplace, if you miss it once, it will be difficult to come back next time. Just like a hunter hunting, opportunities are fleeting and fleeting.
So, when you notice these signs, be sure to brace yourself. Be as sharp, resolute, and swift as a cheetah chasing its prey.
Take the initiative to show your work ability to the leader, actively cooperate with the work arranged by the leader, and let the leader see your potential. Learn to express yourself in critical moments, and don't be obscure anymore.
Tell the leader about your ideals and ambitions, and let the leader feel your passion and vitality. Praise leaders appropriately, but don't flatter, be generous and decent. Increase opportunities to engage with leaders and let them know you better.
The key is to also lead by example in your day-to-day work. Help your colleagues more and learn with an open mind, so that you can win everyone's support. No matter how far a person goes, it is inseparable from the strength of the collective.
Of course, don't be discouraged if you encounter a few unsatisfactory times. The door to communication must always be open. As long as you are willing to communicate with the leader, he will definitely give you guidance.
As the saying goes, opportunity favors those who are prepared. If you can grasp these "promotion signals" and work tirelessly, I am sure that Lady Luck will definitely favor you.
Friend, this spring is coming to an end, but your future has only just begun. Don't let the opportunity slip away again, from now on, let it go! Even if you go through a lot of hardships, you must open up your own piece of heaven in this unit!
