Remember, every organization pays its employees for their hard work and efficiency. Individuals need to achieve the assigned targets within the desired time frame. It is essential for employees to meet deadlines and deliver results on time. Why would an organization promote you if you do not accomplish tasks within the desired time frame? Employees need to be efficient and proactive for better productivity.
Employees need to get their work done on time to expect timely appraisals and appreciation from not only managers but also external clients. Delaying work leads to no solution. One needs to adopt a systematic approach to be efficient at workplace. Do not start a new task unless and until you are through with your previous assignments. Employees tend to be efficient when they take their work seriously and do not treat it as a mere source of burden.
Your motive in life should be very clear. Why do you come to work? Ask yourself.
Is it only for money?
Or is it to grow professionally and make a mark of your own?
If you attend office just to receive your monthly pay check, think again!!!
Who asks you to sit in office till late? Finish your work on time, go home and enjoy with your friends and family. Sitting late in office does not prove that you are a diligent employee but indicates that you have poor time management skills and absolutely unorganized and inefficient. Your organization is not paying you for loitering around and gossiping with fellow workers. Interaction among employees is essential but make sure you finish your assignments on time. Organize your workstation. Get rid of things you no longer need. Keep important documents in a proper folder so that you do not waste time in unnecessary searching. Stay organized and get rid of clutter.
Do not waste your time chatting with friends and family over phone, on social networking sites, playing games on computer and so on.
Prioritize your work and adopt a step by step approach. Important and urgent tasks should be finished first.
Adopt a focussed approach at work. Focusing on the most important thing increases your efficiency. Being efficient does not mean that you accomplish more work in less time, ignoring the quality of work. Never compromise on quality. Employees need to concentrate on work not only to deliver results on time but also yield high quality output. An employee is said to be efficient only when he accomplishes assigned tasks on time, with minimum errors. You need to produce quality work in minimum possible time.
Do not work alone. Prefer working in teams where each team member contributes his/her level best to achieve targets within the stipulated time frame. Managers ought to delegate work as per specialization, educational qualification, past experience and interest levels of employees. This way people tend to enjoy their work and help their organization outshine its competitors. Give yourself a deadline and strive hard to finish your work on or before time. Give yourself a pat on your back whenever you meet deadlines and accomplish work on time.
