How To Get Ahead At Work

If you want to rise up the ranks and get ahead at work there's a simple technique you can use. It works like a charm. The principle is that it's not enough just to do your job - that's what you get paid a wedge for. Do something extra. Ask your boss if there's something you can take from his/her heavy and burdensome workload and do it with skill and precision.


For example:


  • Preparing the presentation for a monthly review.

  • Taking on an additional customer or supplier.

  • Checking or writing financial or performance reports.

  • Keeping records well organised.

  • Organising social events.

  • Supervising incoming customers on a Saturday morning.

  • Scheduling rotas.

  • Running workshops.

  • Speaking at conferences and exhibitions.

  • Creating new processes or evaluating 3rd party software solutions.


I worked as a product manager in a business that needed an additional forklift truck driver because of the increased volume of phones we were shipping. So I took a qualification and did that. Solved a blockage and I loved it.


Look around at what needs to be done and get stuck in. You'll benefit from the immediate experience and it will supercharge your career.
