Being on time – Plan ahead and aim to arrive 10 minutes early. Consistently being punctual is important as it demonstrates efficient time management and organizational skills.

Work Ethic – Work to a maximum capacity at all times. Build a personal brand of getting tasks done regardless, and leave all excuses at the door.

Effort – Personal brand building is crucial. Professionals should be solution-orientated and place effort on developing skills throughout their career.

Body language – Promote a positive message through body language. Humans use heightened senses to create a quick overall snapshot of a person. So remember to smile, be confident and use open gestures.

Enthusiasm – Moods are contagious so make it worth catching. Demonstrate through tone and body language that personal improvement and advancement is important in sourcing an employer or mentor.

Attitude – Attitude is everything in determining success, so professionals should assess regularly how mentally tasks can be tackled in a more positive manner. Determine what personally forces attitude loss and devise a coping strategy.

Passion – Choose a career that suits personal goals, and passion will come naturally.

Coaching ability – Learn to take constructive criticism and understand its importance in personal development. Choosing a respected mentor who understands individual goals is important here.

Being prepared – Show up every day with the tools and knowledge of what is needed to succeed.

Going the extra mile – If progression is important, professionals should prepare for a new role by practicing at every opportunity, paid or unpaid.

Don’t Be Destroyed By Change Warns DMG Co.

Recent reports have suggested that businesses are struggling to communicate change within their teams, which is resulting in dire misunderstandings and irreparable damage. As change is such a major part of business DMG Co. has shared some best practices to help businesses implement change effectively.

In any business, change is unavoidable. In order to stay on top of the competition, meet consumer need and adhere to developing market trends, all businesses must be able to strategize and implement positive change. In certain industries this ability to accept change is even more important; for industries that have a strong growth trajectory and are prone to influxes of new clients and team members, being able to cope with change must run through their core or they risk crashing and burning. 

However, despite its integral role within the business environment, reports suggest many businesses are struggling in their approach to change – especially when it comes to communicating new ideas and initiatives to their teams.  Based in Providence, outsourced sales and marketing firm DMG Co. are warning businesses of the impact of poor communication when it comes to change. Team members deserve to be informed and consulted at every stage of a new development, and need to be told how the changes will impact them, either directly or indirectly. When a person feels that something is being withheld from them or that things aren’t effectively being communicated to them they will lose trust in their work and feel undervalued. This will have a direct impact on their performance and focus, cause unnecessary stress and ultimately lead to a business suffering from poor quality work.

To help more businesses communicate with their team members more effectively and build a culture of openness and support DMG Co. has shared the following guidelines.

Body Language

When discussing change, business leaders must ensure that they are taking a strong and confident stance. Avoiding eye contact or fidgeting suggests to others that the person speaking is unsure of what they are saying, or are not being completely upfront and honest. DMG Co. coaches the leaders within their organization to have a confident presence when addressing others, and advises them to maintain eye contact to ensure they are perceived in the best possible light.

Actions

When discussing change, it’s vital for leaders to display the actions they are expecting from others straight away, to avoid misunderstandings and set a precedent. For example, if a leader is implementing changes concerning productivity, then the leader must commit to positive time management and increasing their own performance.

Sensitivity

In many organizations, it is often leaders who create or hear about changes first. Should team members further down the pecking order get wind of these changes before a formal announcement, anxiety can spread among workers. Businesses must be aware of this and make it a priority to discuss all changes with their workers as soon as possible and give them a platform to voice their concerns and seek out answers.

Based in Providence, DMG Co. is a leading provider of personalized outsourced sales and marketing solutions. Through face-to-face, friendly customer communication, the firm help clients secure stronger customer relationships and increase sales revenue.

Due to the current rate of growth within the industry, DMG Co. is in the process of building up their workforce and creating new leaders. To ensure quality does not slip and that all involved in their business feel confident with these changes, the firm are committed to implementing the above, and meet regularly every week to openly discuss new developments.
