What kind of people can rise to the top effortlessly?
1. When the boss asks if you're busy. Don’t say: "I’m okay, not busy." Instead, say: "Boss, I’m currently drafting the project W review document (I'm caught up with xX right now, highlighting that I'm grinding hard). If you have something to discuss, please go ahead!" The key is to let them finish, then you can think about your response.
2. When work is stalled. Don't say: "Colleague xx isn’t cooperating." Instead, say: "Boss, I'm facing xx issue and need your support."
3. When the boss asks for your opinions. Don’t say: "No comments." Instead, say: "You’ve covered everything comprehensively, I have nothing to add. I’ll execute this and consult you if any issues arise."
4. When the tasks assigned by the boss exceed your capacity. Don’t say: "I can’t do it." Instead, say: "Thank you for your trust; while this task is challenging for me, I’ll strive to excel. If I hit a wall, I’ll seek your guidance."
5. When the boss expresses concern. Don’t say: "It’s nothing, not tough at all." Instead, say: "Thank you for your concern, I’ve learned a lot from this. If there are areas I’m falling short in, please guide me. It’s your strategic support that has helped me achieve today’s results; compared to you, our efforts are trivial."
6. When the boss says "Thank you." Don’t say: "You’re welcome." Instead, say: "It’s the least I could do. I appreciate you entrusting me with important tasks; I've learned a lot through this. If I have any shortcomings, please feel free to point them out anytime."
