Have you ever in your life, worked in a so called “Corporate Setup”? Do you also rate “Professionalism”, “Meetings”, and “Organisational Behaviour” as the most overheard words?
If the answer for both the questions is yes, then I believe you want to carry on reading. There are some unstated, unasked and well-known “Laws of Corporate”. I have tried to pen down many of them that I pleasurably happened to tracked and trapped in my stint as a “Professional”.
The journey starts:-
• Reach office on time, even if you are then not available at your workstation for the subsequent hour. But be on time!
• You have to be dressed complete formally, irrespective of the fact how formal your approach is!
• Keep bugging your direct lead and manager; they should know that you are busy, even if you are having “NO WORK”!
• If you have internal office communicator, then the best policy is to be on “Busy” or “Do not disturb”, it shows how much occupied you are!
• If you are the kind of person who gets up at regular intervals, then always roam with a paper in the hand or much easier is to keep a confused look on your face. It helps greatly!
• If you are the one and only “glitch maker”, then ensure that you keep your peers updated on the falsehood of “amount of work”, or they will start questioning about the regular meetings with the Manager!
• “No work” and everyone knows that; take initiatives, let everyone know that you have taken it, make sure it’s up and running, yielding results, however it should not end before the works comes in!
• Restrain from back bitching, it’s ok if done on and with individuals!
• Any “good work” done, even mistakenly or unknowingly; report it, file it and share it with everyone who can have a say at bonuses and appraisals.
• Had to go on a leave, make sure that the “reason for leave” is serious at large maximally!
• Give due respect to everyone, even if they don’t command or need it!
• Last but not the least, attend as many meetings as you can (calendar should be booked heavily); really man, it shows how busy employee you are!
I know I could have missed many, but this is what I have attained. Feel free to comment any more. I will be highly obliged.
