It has been a long day yesterday….
Right from interviewing some inters joining my team to attending Bangalore
Barcamp - listening to some amazing talks by my friends. Barcamps hold a
special meaning in my life and to prove that statement, I started blogging
after attending Pune Barcamp 2007 which happens to be my first Barcamp.
As you would know I have been
blessed to work with some amazing companies like Oracle, IBM, Motorola, Teleca
& Huawei. Barcamp has thought me the art of sharing & learning, thus
let me share with you’ll key lessons that I have encountered & adopted during
my 6 years of corporate experience:
- Truly believe in the company & project you are part of. Until and unless you are not passionate you can never give your best
- Instead of your manager, Plan & Strategies your own work
- Set targets & benchmarks for yourself. Timely keep a track on our scores
- If you feel insecure it’s time to learn & work hard in improving your skill sets
- Do things the way no one ever can do it the way you do
- Instead of working hard, work smartly
- Network & build your brand
- Take ownership
- Help people working for & with you to grow, they will help you step ahead
- Present yourself & your work in the best way possible to management
- Let failures never define you, but help you get one step closer to success
- Last not the least – Learn, Share, Contribute, Support & Inspire people around you.
Yesterday across the dining table one
of my friends said, “You sound very corporate”.
Well I take it as a compliment
because my Dear friends I know my business very well.
