6 Ways To Get More Recognition At Work - Clearly Stand Out At Work

Get more recognition at work by learning how to communicate the benefits your work gives to your boss and colleagues. When you make the value you create clear and memorable, you really stand out at work and get a lot more recognition. I share 6 ways to get more recognition at work and clearly stand out from the crowd. How to stand out at work starts with doing the important things really well. You will have more work than you can do (unless you are very lucky). When you put more effort and time into the important tasks, activities and projects and less time into urgent but less important ones, you have a much better chance of standing out at work and getting a lot more recognition. It is horrible not getting recognition at work, particularly if you are working hard. Hard work is not enough. Rather work hard on the really important areas and communicate your achievements to your bosses. Second, for how to get recognition at work, it is really important to measure the impact of your work for the team and your boss. If you don’t know how much of an impact you are having, why should anyone else. Use financial numbers to quantify your impact to get more recognition in the workplace.The third way to get more recognition at work is to link your results to team, function and business goals. Everyone should be focused on achieving these goals (and they are likely to be the more valuable work). Demonstrate how well you are supporting your boss and the team by clearly linking your results and output to moving the team closer to achieving goals. Fourth, to stand out at work, you must market your work to your busy boss. This is super important. Don’t expect your busy and under pressure manager to be tracking exactly what you do and appreciate the value you are contributing to them and the team. Spell this out for your manager. Make it easy for them to understand your contribution. Fifth, to get recognition at work, build relationships across the organisation and help others out. Making the time to do this massively helps your ability to do a great job, plus you know more people and are significantly more appreciated and respected. Reciprocity is a powerful group law.

Every business wants and needs lots of team players to be successful. Team players help others be more successful as well as being more successful themselves. You get a lot more recognition at work from clearly being at team player. No recognition at work happens to those that only look out for themselves. If you have any questions on “6 ways to get more recognition at work - clearly stand out at work”, please email me at [email protected] and I will get back to you.  Jess ColesEnhance.training
