An incident happened in the company today, my department head carried the black pot for his direct leaders, and still silently carried it, and did not defend himself on the spot at the company's management meeting. After this matter was known to a colleague in my department, L, she immediately said: Why don't you say on the spot that this matter is not your responsibility, so that everyone present understands how the direct leader does things, in other words, I will definitely expose him on the spot! My department head only replied: Exposing it on the spot will only make his death more ugly.
see! This is the difference in thinking between supervisors and ordinary employees. In the workplace, there are many people like my colleague L, when something is wrong in themselves, they will immediately defend themselves, and even want to prove their innocence to everyone, but have you ever thought that this will only pave more stumbling blocks for your career path.
In the case of my department head, if he had exposed his direct leadership on the spot at the management meeting, let alone whether the boss believed what he said, his weight in the heart of the direct leader would be lost. Will the direct leaders make every effort to make things difficult in the future work? Will you assign important work to others? Will it be a day when you will be directly emptied and let you take the initiative to leave?
If this happened to my colleague L, it would be exposed on the spot, embarrassing the leader, and at the same time making other managers present question the ability of the big boss to employ people. The difference between supervisors and ordinary employees is not only manifested in ability, but the most essential difference is the way of thinking.
Many people in the workplace will keep complaining, their work is very good, there is no flaw, like the old scalper toil and complain for so many years, why does the leader not promote me, but promote the hairy boy who just came in?
Why have I been working for so many years and not yet a backbone employee? That's because you always see things from your own standpoint.
As the saying goes: seek his position in his place. But what I want to say is that if a person always keeps his position and looks at things from his own standpoint, it is no wonder that he can only be an ordinary employee. You have not shown a vision and pattern beyond your position, and how dare the leader entrust important work to you. Of course, ability is one thing, but it's the way of thinking that determines where you are.
Ability can be continuously honed and improved through practice, but it is difficult to change the way of thinking is fixed, because most of the thinking habits are unconsciously formed, and if you want to change, you need to change your thinking habits through continuous, conscious, and repetitive mental cues. Let's not say whether this effect is good or not, but I believe that many people are difficult to stick to, otherwise why is it that now everything is punching behavior, getting up early to punch in, punching cards after exercise, reading and writing punching cards, and even punching cards before going to bed at night. It's not all about forcing yourself to form a new way of habituation.
The American philosopher and psychological giant William James once said: "Sow an action, harvest a habit; sow a habit, harvest a character; sow a character, harvest a destiny..." The way of thinking determines the way of behavior, whether it is action or habit, character or fate, the inducement is hidden in its own way of thinking.
Returning to the above example of my supervisor, many people will have questions, do you let me silently help the leader to carry the black pot every time I encounter a problem? Of course not! Of course, the black pot to carry is valuable. Encounter the back of the black cauldron, do not expose on the spot, afterwards you can find a big BOSS alone to explain the situation, of course, if this matter is known by your direct leader is not a good fruit to eat, but maybe one day you may become his leader.
