Skill

It is not easy to learn to brag in a way that is neither too active nor deliberate.

My friend is very conscientious and intelligent, but like many people, she didn't know how to play the political game in the office at the beginning.

She works in the business and marketing department, and business pactions are usually built with customers over the years.

Good relations

。

She worked in her last job for several years. During that time, she was well paid, and her boss and colleagues liked her very much, but she didn't go all the way. Maybe it was because her job location was not in the head office.

So we talked about how she should change her new position and discuss new strategies.

About two months after my friend worked in the new company, I went to her office to find her. Just in time, a fax came in and told her about a business paction that had been spent two weeks.

Five minutes ago, the senior deputy general manager was chatting with her in her office. The gossip just mentioned that the client might make a big business.

I suggested that she go to the vice president's office and pretend to be casual about the coincidence: "we just finished talking, and I concluded the deal!" she didn't want to go and wanted to write a note at first.

I suggested that she should strike while the iron was hot, showing her merits, but without any trace.

After she agreed, she went to vice president's office.

As a result, the vice president was very happy. She suggested that she tell the company's public relations department to let the company know the proceeds. (he is also a master of this strategy and clearly knows every opportunity to increase the visibility of his department.)

Even if the vice president is not there, she can write a note: "I think you will be interested in this news..."

You can analyze which behaviors are supported, not just observing the behavior of the boss, but also including what he values and following it.

If your boss thinks overtime is important, let him know you are working overtime.

If customers like to chat or attach importance to technology, you should become an expert in this field and let them know.

Once you have the chance, you can commend yourself in an indirect and natural way.

If you are still not used to self promotion, you can ask others to help you from an objective point of view.

You will notice that your talents and achievements are different from those of beating drums and drums.

Many female executives say that most of their dialogues and discussions are carried out in corridors, elevators or other informal places.

As visibility increases, the risk will also increase.

But we must challenge the limits of ourselves, show our positions and are likely to be challenged.

Women are often uncomfortable with the conflicts that may arise after an increase in visibility.

The reality must be faced with the fact that the higher your visibility, the greater the chance that others will disagree with your statement or practice.

But it doesn't matter, you will get used to it.

For example, when you plan or need to show your position on a topic, have you envisaged how to deal with it once your position is challenged? Are you ready?

Women are usually used to play the role of peacemaker, so once women have to face a confrontation environment, they will feel uncomfortable.

If you are very supportive of a certain opinion or position in a meeting, but another person has the same strong belief in opposite positions, what do you do? In that case, you will often see two men on the spot tit for tat, do not give in to each other, but after work, they will go to a small drink together or play basketball together.

At this point, you may be puzzled: "how can they become brothers after a war?" indeed, many women may be in the same situation, and they may feel uncomfortable about the conflict at the meeting.

However, if you look at the little boy playing on the playground, you will find that this is only part of the game.

That's the way it is.

Tit for tat on the field, problem solving is all right.

Women often involve personal feelings, but usually they do not.

So we have to learn to talk about things and separate personal feelings from work as much as possible.
