How To Make Yourself Useful In Your Organization

We always try to seek the avenues to improve the chances for career advancement.

One such avenue is to make yourself useful to the company that you are working for. This means you play a role in the business that is directly or indirectly associated with your organization’s success.

Three such ways you can play this role as follows:

1) Be productive

Productivity means getting a job done correctly at the lowest cost possible. While you’re on the clock, you should be doing something that contributes to the product or service the business offers. Do not make your role in the company unimportant by doing things which are unproductive.

2) Be supportive

Your willingness to cooperate and support others will undoubtedly be noticed by the other people in your business. Anything you can do to help your co-workers, supervisors or owners of the company do a better job will contribute to your own success. Do not overdo things, take control and practice balance in what you do.

3) Take work personally

You need to feel and act as if the success of the business was a measure of your own success and you should take the success of the company for which you work personally. Treat customers as if they were your own. This “personal” attitude will let your supervisors and managers know that you’re an important company asset.
