-- Take charge of your personal life -- CEOs want people working for them
who come to work ready to get the job done -- people whose personal life is
stable and healthy enough that they can direct their attention and energy
to their work.
-- Demonstrate your added value -- Employees have to recognize that every
one of their decisions, ideas, actions, and plans must be linked to the
long-term financial stability and growth of their company.
-- Have a positive impact -- Employers do not have the right to evaluate
our inner attitudes, beliefs, and feelings, but they DO have the right to
evaluate how we perform on paid work time as a result of those attitudes,
beliefs, and feelings.
-- Embrace and initiate change -- Employers will keep employees who can
adapt to all the changes their organization is going through with
professionalism, determination, and optimism. They need employees who are
resilient enough to face change boldly without resorting to complaints,
apathy, anger, or fear.
-- Work smarter, harder, faster and better -- One manager stated, "Which
employee would I keep? Why, of course, the one who can get a quality job
done -- on time."
-- Communicate openly and directly -- Employers want people who can most
effectively communicate their needs, preferences, ideas, and feelings to
their customers, co-workers, and management team without manipulation and
game playing.
