Learning to Work Well With Others
Did your parents ever come back from a PTA meeting to tell you that your teacher thinks that you “work well with others”? Well, even if you had forgotten how since elementary school, this is a characteristic that you can pick up during a normal workday. Most places of employment encourage the concept that “teamwork makes the dream work.” Even if you prefer to work independently, always check in with your manager and make sure that you’re doing your part to keep the machine running. If you are CC’d on any emails, always “reply all” so that the same co-workers are kept in the loop with project updates. By working with others, you will learn how to hold your tongue, be diplomatic, and be professional, fast!
