All Managements should follow this advise.
This is so nice to hear. That's all I want to do my first 90 days. Shut up and listen and learn wtf is going on before blabbing.
All the videos I happen to see of this guy, 100% spot on
I took this advice and lost my new job as a news radio broadcaster. They wouldn’t even watch this short for themselves.
“The Wise Will Only Prove To Themselves” - Sun Tzu
For those commenting that this didn't work: this advice, as all advice, should be taken with a grain of salt; it may not apply fully or at all, it depends on each job opportunity, the expectations that need to be met and asking appropriate questions to get better at knowing the scope of the work thoroughly. Though in my opinion, this advice applies to all new employees, not only upper management. Because they do not know the company well enough to contribute right from the start. I agree with this advice; however, you must ask if not sure of the full scope of the work and the expectations of you. I don't see it in the same way of not having to prove yourself, that's a "bit" much, in every job you must prove yourself worthy of the opportunity at all times; but it has to be done wisely, not from a stance of "I know better" from day one, this could for sure become not only annoying, but establish you as a know-it-all, trying too hard or rather inappropriately hard, when you were hired you did already prove worthy of the opportunity. At the beginning, proving yourself worthy is to obey, follow the rules, protocols and do your very best to give 100% results according to your skill level and also to the level of training provided. In my business, this was the case, at first I had all new employees focus on learning what they needed to and they were expected to ask questions, not input. As they proved to be good employees; grew more knowledgeable of their jobs and the company's overall goals, I did welcome input. For new projects this did not apply. I hired experts in the field for their input and what their expertise could add to my plans, so input was expected from day one. Blessings to everyone!!! Be and share your God-given awesomeness every day ppl!!! 🙏🏻❤️
I appreciate Simon Sinek so much
You're a darling human.
In my workplace, I am required to prove myself, even in the early stages of three months, when you are basically still onboarding. I was already told after those three months of hard work that I needed to “step up,” while I was stepping up from day 1.
after my promotion was announced my previous manager ( who promoted me ) said the same thing, " no need to prove yourself, we know you can do it, thats why we chose you " and that lifted a lot of burden in my shoulder ( burdens that i didnt know even exsist )
All-Mighty God Bless! 🌏
Wow Simon, I mean this has really made an impact on me.. I will be wiser because of this reminder to shut up and listen
We don't need to prove ourselves all the time. I love how the first 90 days Chanel does this. They are a client of mine and are great to work with - very disciplined.
This hits home.
This works everywhere. My dad told me the same advice for the military. In his case, it was for newer officers coming out of OCS and trying to tell senior enlisted what was up without listening. Just chill and listen to learn and gain your bearings.
So good!!
Yes you come out slowly dont overtake people Who were there before you.
A great lesson.
I've actually noticed that when someone is new they have innovative ideas and are exited to share them. The longer they stay in a company the higher the chances not to sharecthese ideas because they want to fit in.
