Thriving At Work: What They Didn't Teach You in School

von Michael Dam

★★★★★

Keep an ongoing track record of your results and feedback as the year progresses. Don’t wait until the last minute. This is too important to wait until just before the evaluation time to start writing down your accomplishments and other people’s feedback. And in the rush, you may forget to include some key milestones as well as gathering feedback from all appropriate people. Employees who prove to be quick learners and contributors will make a great impression, gain credibility and confidence with co-workers and management. You need to have a plan to hit the deck running on the first day and this chapter will show you how.
