• Pls. be specific.


  • Do a performance self analyst and you will find out.


  • Take whatever job you have seriously, even if you are temping at Pizza Hut to get through school. Excell at all you do, whatever the task, do it well and be efficient.

    Always show up a couple of minutes early and only stay home if truly ill. Never gossip or bring personal baggage and drama into work.

    Take pride in being the best at whatever it is you do. Always learn all you can, everything anyone will teach you. If it doesn't serve you in this job, it will in another job one day.


  • Hey Neal,

    The key is to follow through on tasks to the end. Validate that what you said you would do, is what was wanted. Then that what you did is what you said you would do, and that your boss and customer are satisfied with the result.

    Besides understanding what is required, you need training, to keep up with technology. For example, a certified project manager is required to get a number of training credits each year to keep their certification. Keep yourself on top of your field!

    Employers looking at this need to ensure they understand their employees training needs, and provide what is needed. Employers that reward performance get more excellent performers!

    My final key, maybe others starting key, you should love what you do. It should be a priority in your life (family first). That sets you up in a place where you want to be excellent in your job performance.

  • 1. GO TO WORK
    2 DO your job
    3. KEEP your mouth shut
    4. GO HOME


  • Perform above and beyond your duty. Anticipate (don't guess) what your boss wants and have it done before he/she asks. Take on/ask for more challenging work - work that someone at the next level is performing. Be 100% dependable. Complete your work timely and accurately. Be the "go to" person for your boss, let him/her know that you can be relied upon to make him/her look good. Always have a good attitude, keep your feelings to yourself. Leave your personal life at home, never complain. Mentor subordinate staff, help them help you. You don't particularly have to be liked (it doesn't hurt) but don't be disliked.


  • Give a 120%, be innovative, be positive, be on time. see solutions and not problems.


  • learn to love your job not because of monetary thing but because you love what you're doing. if you are enjoying your work then positive things would come out.


  • You must keep in mind that everyone has areas that could be improved upon.... Otherwise if you think you are perfect, you wouldnt look for areas of improvements! Right?

    When you apply for a job, study the description for the position for which you wanna work in. You can always check their website! This will give you an understanding of what type of candidate the organization is hiring... And will enable you to discuss whatever they're dealing or working in!

    If some one give you a remark or a suggestion, try and make your attitude positive towards these suggested improvements. You have to listen thoughtfully.

    If you are given a task to do, and the information you get is a complete surprise to you, tell your manager that you would like some time to digest everything that has been said and request a time to meet again.... Always ask questions... Good ones ;-)

    Consider asking for training in the areas that you like to improve in..... this will show management that you are devoted.

    Try to be punctual and proper... always on time!

    Train someone to do your job, in case you are on leave or vaccation... or for any other urgent matter. Dont over do it, so that they can take advantage and take over your job!

    Always take responsibility for knowing your assigned work schedule. If you disagree with your assigned schedule, take it up with management.

    Be a team player... Help co-workers with assigned group tasks.

    Stay within your assigned area. If you must leave for breaks or to deliver items to other areas, let the appropriate co-worker know where you're going and when you intend to return.

    Minimize the number of personal calls and/or visitors to your work area.

    Bring lunch and/or snacks from home. You will then be able to use your break time more efficiently.

    Try to be the lovable popular guy at work.... Occasionally, bring in food to share; even a bag of Lays will be appreciated and may help other co-workers to overlook some of your deficiencies.

    Complaining about your job to your co-workers is likely to annoy them, given that they have the same job as you and are no more likely than you to really enjoy it.

    Learn how to handle angry customers! Be patient, aApproach the angry customer and ask what they are displeased with. If they ask for the manager, get him/her quickly and do your best to solve the problem. Then apologise for taking their time and inform them that your business will do everything possible to correct it. The next time they come back, ask how their day is and do everything possible to be polite. Always be polite! Dont lose your temper! No matter what!

    Good Luck ;-)


  • I get excellent on my performance review every year. A major key is that whatever problems your having in your personal life, leave them at home. When you get to work, be all about your job. Don't just do what is expected or written in your job description, but be willing to do a little more. If your lunch period is an hour take an hour not an hour and ten minutes. Never gossip. And one very important one is never say, "Not my job" if something needs done just do it.


  • No matter what job you have, Work Hard! I've found that to be the most important. Even if you're having trouble catching on to how to do something, if you just work hard, your boss, coworkers, and customers will appreciate you!

    best of wishes :) smile :)


  • Always go above and beyond what is asked. If you have some free time, find something productive to do, that means do not surf the net, read the news, or answer personal email. That is so annoying! Report Abuse


  • A positive attitude.
    Avoid murmuring and/or complaining.
    Avoid gossip and gossipers.
    Dress professionally without overdoing it.
    Be friendly without becoming overly familiar with co-workers.
    Keep your personal life and your professional life separate.
    Do your work with diligence and integrity.
    Remain honest.
    Expect to succeed.
    Help others to succeed.
    When you reach the top, remain humble.


  • Put in a good effort and if it's not good enough for your superiors then you're working for the wrong people.


  • -be attentive
    -go above and beyond expectations ( take initiative)
    - respect yourself and co-workers
    - be punctual
    - respect deadlines and set goals for yourself
    -seek feedback and or constructive criticism when you are unsure

  • First and Foremost..get clear expectations of what is expected of you. Then set timelines of when these expectations can be achieved, and remember to renegotiate the timelines as necessary so all parties are involved.


  • 1. A positive attitude.
    2. Put forth your best effort.

    4. Don't complain when asked to perform your occupational duties.
    4. Avoid workplace gossip.

    6. Don't disrespect *anyone* on any level.
    7. Never, ever say,"That's not *my* job!"
    8. Don't make harassing remarks or put yourself in similar situations (i.e., sexual harassment, etc. Should this come about, report it immediately!)
    9. Never hang a co-worker out in the breeze for your own gain. Never claim someone else's work as your own. It's a good way to make enemies and unpleasantries on the job.
    10. Dress appropriately; clean and neat. Women shouldn't wear anything revealing and men must be clean-shaven or have facial hair trimmed. Clothing should be conservative, not flashy. Keep perfumes and jewelry to a minimum.
    11. Don't bring your personal problems to work and keep work where it belongs. The two mix like oil and water.
    12. NEVER lie on a resume' or application. Don't claim to know something you don't. That could *really* hurt you.
    13. When asked about prior convictions, be honest without overload.
    14. Don't withhold important information that's required on the job application form. People have been fired for doing so.
    15. Don't refuse a drug-test. That won't help you get the job. When you take it, PASS IT--- honestly and fairly!
    16. Personal conversations should be confined to the break room while on break; not around the water cooler.
    17. LOVE WHAT YOU DO!
    18. Respect your boss. Remember, he's human and has his job to do, too.

  • Good question. It's really not hard but there are a few things that are of utmost importance.

    First the easy stuff:

    Show up on time every day, don't abuse break and lunch times, don't leave early. Just being there every day, all the time can make a big impression.

    Learn the rules and follow them. This sounds brain dead but you won't believe how many people have no clue about stuff that can get them fired.

    For the first few months, keep your mouth shut and your ears open. Never assume you can walk into a new place and start making changes, you'll have plenty of time for that.

    Learn your job, learn everything about your job then learn as much as you can about everyone else's job. NO ONE, and I mean NO ONE, does it alone. Everyone is a piece in a much bigger puzzle. The more of the puzzle you understand, the better you can do your job and eventually, move up to managing it.

    If you screw up, no wait, when you screw up, admit it and take the blame. Never, Ever, under any circumstances, try to hide a mistake or lie about it. Ask for help in understanding what you did wrong and most importantly, make sure you don't repeat that mistake.

    Take pride in your work and do the best job you can every time. Take responsibility for what you do. Let me tell you something the slackers never understand, everyone knows who works and who doesn't. There are NO secrets, no matter what anyone tries to tell you. People might choose to ignore things but they always know. If you notice, the good people seldom brag but everyone knows who they are.

    There is probably more but that is the basics.


  • There is really only one key. RESPECT. Apply it properly in every situation, and you will do well.


  • Be neat and clean. Dress appropriately for your job.

    Be punctual. Be early to work and dont stay late even if not needed. This does not only refer to arriving early but also to the preparation and submission of reports, among others.

    Do your job well and deliver more.

    Abide by the company rules and follow them diligently. Sounds boring but very true.

    Know your work. One aspect of your job is just one piece of a large puzzle. Understanding others will benefit you and your company.

    Never gossip.

    Be professional. Problems at work have their place in your life...as well as the personal ones. Never mix them because they do not give good or beneficial results. There should be a line separating your personal and professional problems.

    The list goes on and on, as others would say, but LOVING YOUR WORK is the best key of them all...and be happy always.


  • Honesty , you can run a job or work at a job successfully without honesty.


  • 80% of your job performance is showing up for work, and on time the other 20% is do the best you can everyday and stay away from the gossip circle , just do your thing at your best and it will be reconized and rewarded if not change jobs


  • good performance good people skills good communication skills good leadership gratitude


  • - Go above and beyond
    - Do more than asked, or offer to do more than your normal duties
    - Help others around you as much as you can (teamwork)
    - Volunteer for little tasks you think you can do
    - Participate in extracurricular activities, if your company has any
    - No personal phone calls
    - No emails/surfing the web for personal use
    - Finish your tasks early or on time
    - Maintain excellent quality and productivity
    - Consult your boss on what you can improve on (it shows you're eager to seek their advice and improve)
    - Do not gossip at work, it WILL come back and bite you in the @$$.


  • Be happy, enjoy and LOVE your job. Happy people produce good results.


  • Try to be on time. Dress for success. Do your best to focus on your work and not on the grls. Don't complain. Have fun.


  • First and foremost, LISTEN to what is being asked of you. Nothing makes you look dumber than having to have your boss tell you twice. DO what is asked of you......most times that is what is required. We get ourselves in trouble when we try and read the boss's mind and add our own take on the assignment.
    DO NOT gossip about your co-workers, don't listen either. Never speak badly of the boss, because you never know if it will get back to them.
    DO NOT try to answer questions if you are not sure of the answer. Answer, quickly and with authority the ones you do know. Do that and soon people will think you know it all because they only remember you always giving the right answer.
    BE ON TIME, BE NEAT.....perception means a lot. Look like a bum and be treated like one. Look like a pro and be treated like one.
    Understand the time table for assignments, use the time you have to be accurate. Getting things done ahead of schedule is great, but only if it's right.
    Never blame others, never lie.....truth may sometimes hurt but you'll garner respect because of it. And the bonus here is that the boss will believe you when you have to give an answer.
    NEVER save bad news until after the fact. If something is going poorly, report the problem and look for help. If there is a problem, try and have a workable solution to discuss once you have made the boss aware of the situation.
    I could go on and on.......but I think you should have the idea.


  • don't fall in love with ur boss ;)


  • Go to your boss and ask him/her what are the 3 most pressing or important needs that require attention, and offer your help in providing a solution. Then, get to work on those things, and watch your boss smile!!!! Report Abuse


  • Be on time, be dressed properly, be amicable with your coworkers, have a good attitude, be thorough in your job performance and in your reporting guidelines, follow the rules.
