There's a chinese saying, 一山容不了二虎. A mountain can't have 2 dominant tigers. Unless the core of the business only have one department tapping on one source of manpower, it is important to be very clear what other departments want before attaching people to them . Here are some tips to manage the different expectations of other managers! 1) Always keep track of the wherabout of your manpower to avoid oversupply or undersupply of manpower 2) Always be objective when understanding what other managers want from this manpower, list them down and ensure all jobs are done. This helps to account for performance of that individual and as well as our department. 3) It is known that sometimes an employee receives instructions from more than 1 manager. This is very common when this employee is multi-tasking in different projects. Thus, it is important to speak to other managers to align expectations to avoid confusion and potential conflicts. 4) Sometimes, expectations of difficult managers can be tough to manage. This often leads to less effective communication and can pose problems later. Hence, it is important we keep ourselves approachable to allow unhindered communications among co-managers. 5) It is important to align expectations with the higher management together with co-managers . The management team plays a very important role to the direction the company is taking. You may also like Tradeshow preparation (Machinery Sales) How to manage a toxic working culture?

Here's 4 tips to help you! Brought to you by: WE Development Content written by: Shinee Lim Last Updated: 9 June 2021 at 2:59:04 am Say Hello Article Tips Say Hello Share with someone you care ! No matter how hard I tried, my results seem stagnant! Here, we share four tips that you can identify and adopt in your study routine! 1) Goal-Setting 2) Environment Tweaking 3) Identifying Style of Work 4) Clarification 1) Goal-Setting - Always plan early by noting down important deadlines on a calendar, such as the next exam or submission. Set a timeline of the work you wish to cover through the weeks - Prioritize the content that has already been taught by revising and working on it first. Given the time, you may work on other topics before your learning in school. - Reward your progress . If you put in effort in the correct direction, persistence will pay off. 2) Environment Tweaking - It doesn't matter if your table is messy or neat or your surroundings' ambiance is noisy or soft. Study in a place that you deem as distraction-free . - Be it studying alone or with peers, empower each other . Share solutions to problems encountered during your learning process, as this speeds up the efficiency of grasping concepts for everyone. 3) Identifying Style of Work - Are you a systematic person? Targeting the first topic/subject and mastering one before moving on to the next. - Are you a multi-tasker? Working on different topics/subjects at a time with no aim of mastering one before the other . - Do you have to follow a list? Compile what needs to be done in an "In" list and state what's completed in the" Out" list. This allows you to track what has been done easily ! You may not necessarily be very detailed when filling the list; a direction can just be good enough. These above styles of work are not exhaustive and can be overlapped with one another. Pick a style that suits you the most . If your current working style is on the list and is ineffective, choose an alternative, and you may find yourself more efficient. 4) Clarification - Have your teacher or lecturer confused you? Knowing if you are in a state of confusion is important because you can plan what to clarify. - Unsure how answers are derived? Take the initiative to learn the steps and concepts involved since many exam questions test on these. - Have you encountered assuming that a topic will not be tested and it actually came out in exams? - Clarify with your teacher or lecturer , otherwise your school mates . - Alternatively, when practicing for exercise or tutorial questions , look out if such topic was brought up. If yes, include this in your revision. You may also like 4 steps to make you reliable! There is a Free Rider in my group in Poly!! What should I do?! I tried so much, but I just can't do well in JC!

  • Initial prospect meeting (Financial Advisor)

    I will start the appointment by showing them what I have previously promised to research and propose ideas regarding the product/investment platform. Initial prospect meeting (Financial Advisor) Brought to you by: WE Development Content written by: WE Development Last Updated: 9 June 2021 at 2:43:10 am Say Hello Article Job Process Say Hello Share with someone you care ! When the prospect meets for the second time, we can consider them to have interest in the product. In this appointment, we need to find and craft the most suitable financial proposal for the client. 1) I will start the appointment by showing them what I have previously promised to research and propose ideas regarding the product/investment platform. 2) I rarely have clients who have no questions and sign straight away, but there is. 3) For prospects who have doubts, I will ask, listen and acknowledge their reasons for holding back. While listening, I will ask questions to guide them to look at how the proposed products could help them from a different perspective. Signs like nodding their head and listening attentively shows they are interested in further discussion. 4) If prospects are still uncertain, I will allow them to have some time to think or, if not, speak to their family members. I will then set up the next meeting 1 or 2 weeks later to discuss it again. 5) If meetings are more than two times , try to understand what is holding them back. Never rush to a conclusion since this will put the client in a defensive position. Always be professional and never judge the client’s ability to afford the premium. 6) When a prospect’s initial application is rejected due to their past medical histories and/or existing conditions , our company's underwriter may request our prospect to pay for a higher premium. I will then have to explain this to my prospect and assess if they are comfortable with the new proposal. If they are not interested, I will do my best to provide alternative solutions so they can be insured and feel comfortable with the premiums (or payment).

  • 5 Common Issues with Toxic Leaders and how to resolve them!

    I really cannot stand my boss anymore!! At work, sometimes we have unavoidable issues with superiors we work with. Often, these issues are hard to deal with because it involves confrontation and dealing with hierarchy. 5 Common Issues with Toxic Leaders and how to resolve them! Brought to you by: WE Development Content written by: Natasha Zaman Last Updated: 9 June 2021 at 2:58:47 am Say Hello Article Tips Say Hello Share with someone you care ! I really cannot stand my boss anymore!! At work, sometimes we have unavoidable issues with superiors we work with. Often, these issues are hard to deal with because it involves confrontation and dealing with hierarchy . However, if you resolve them well can lead to a better workplace experience and show that you can manage expectations well! Here are five common problems and let's start! 1) Unrealistic expectations 2) Taking leave 3) Unfair working conditions 4) Harassments 5) Unreceptive to ideas 1) Unrealistic expectations Your superiors may not always understand your situation . Sometimes they care more about their targets for the company, or perhaps, their bosses set unrealistic expectations on them and are just passing on the stress to you. If you are experiencing this, you should: - Never flatly criticise them. Avoid words such as unrealistic, unreasonable, or impossible. This will only make you seem like someone who is against them rather than on the same team. - Try to understand them. Rephrasing them and asking if it is accurate. This will make you appear empathetic and serve as an excellent start to negotiate. - Explain your situation. Tell them, while you do want to live up to their expectations, you cannot, due to certain reasons. This will serve as good opening to a discussion that benefits both sides. However, your explanations need to be logical. 2) Taking leave You feel guilty asking for leave because you have had bad experiences doing so before; maybe your boss turned down your request. You feel lousy handing over your work to someone, or you do not like being away from work for long. If you are experiencing this, you should: - Prepare in advance as much as possible. Tell your boss as soon as you have vacation plans. Do not leave any urgent work undone. If you do shift work, try to arrange for a replacement. Try not to request it at peak period. - Explain your circumstances. This is important for last-minute situations. Do you have to take care of someone who is ill? Make sure you tell your boss that. - Do not feel guilty. Your personal life and circumstances are important as well. 3) Unfair working conditions This is usually applicable to you if you are a freelancer - your rights are not usually protected by companies you are working for, as compared to full-time employees. If you are experiencing this, you should: - Get in touch with like-minded communities online – find them on Facebook, Twitter or any platform that works. You can find useful tips and knowledge on your rights as a freelancer and the relevant industrial practices. - Stand up for your rights . Once you know what you are entitled to, do not be afraid to negotiate and clarify your expectations before starting on projects. - Do not be afraid to say no. In the end, if companies refuse to treat you fairly, do not be afraid to walk away. Not only will you save yourself from unnecessary stress, but you will also set higher standards for your other fellow freelancers. 4) Harassments This would usually apply to you if you are working in a customer service-related field. You may be experiencing some form of harassment from patients that you are caring for. If you are experiencing this, you should: - Never handle it by yourself. You may be in a state of shock or anger and are not in a good mental state to access to the situation and respond well. - Bring it up to your superiors. Not only can they offer you emotional support, but they also have more capacity to provide you with useful advice. They may even assign you another more equipped colleague to handle that patient. - Give yourself time to process it. How can you better protect yourself next time? What have you learned, and how you should have a proper closure to this event. 5) Unreceptive to ideas You have this fantastic idea, but you present it wrongly. Your superiors dismissed it quickly even though you spent a lot of time working on it. If you are experiencing this, you should: - Make sure that the idea is impressive. Everyone can be a little too proud of their work sometimes. Hence, think and consider thoroughly before submission. - Look out for what your superiors want. Maybe it is a good idea, but they want something different, and you do not understand that. - Change the way you sell your idea. Maybe your superior did not like the way you put across your idea. Put yourself in your superior’s shoes. What aspects of the idea would appeal most to them? - Ensure your superiors understood. When your superior replies you with answers that are not aligned, you may consider giving them scenarios and better understand the situation.

  • My sports teammate is not cooperating. What can I do?

    I don't understand why my teammate is not doing well!! Instead of feeling annoyed, let's identify the six types of teammates and propose solutions to improve teamwork! My sports teammate is not cooperating. What can I do? Brought to you by: WE Development Content written by: Sophie Ong Last Updated: 9 June 2021 at 2:59:22 am Say Hello Article How-to Guide Say Hello Share with someone you care ! I don't understand why my teammate is not doing well!! Instead of feeling annoyed, let's identify the six types of teammates and propose solutions to improve teamwork! 1) Most Valued Player 2) The Rookie 3) The Achiever 4) The Survivor 5) Happy Go Lucky 6) The Showoff 1) Most Valued Player Most valued players (MVP) are; - Talented and famous in the team - Receive praise for their ability As people have high expectations of them, they may face stress . When these players start to - wanting to play solo - increasingly hot-tempered - become strict during training - being less friendly with the team These could be signs that they are feeling discomfort or stressed. ----- What should I do? ------ - Approach them as a friend - listen to what they have to say and identify the problems they are facing. It may be due to personal issues or the pressure from the team manager/teacher - As a team, propose constructive advice to help share their burden and let them know they are not alone 2) The Rookie The rookies are; - New with little to no exposure - Prone to making mistakes Since everyone learns at different speeds, rookies will require more time. Therefore, if you observe that they are performing worse than before and start to isolate themselves, this could be a sign that their morale is low or they are not interested to learn anymore. ----- What should I do? ------ Understand what had caused this person to act differently . It may be due to; - recent events of someone blaming them for the team's poor performance - being bullied - being ostracized by the team Provide care and concern. Aim to motivate this person and be more inclusive. Communicate as a team to promote a caring culture rather than a reprimanding culture. 3) The Achiever Achievers continuously put in the effort to do well and aim to be a better player. They want to be noticed for their hard work but are not attention seekers. They are driven to do well with good intentions. When they become impatient and aggressive during the gameplay, it may be a sign of them wanting to perform well. ----- What should I do? ------ - Help the achiever by practicing together and accompany them to practice after school . - By lending a helping hand, the achiever will receive the support and help needed to perform better. - This way, team cohesiveness can also be improved concurrently. 4) The Survivor The survivor joins the team and enjoys the sport initially but dislikes training after some time. They are also known as "bench warmers". They do not participate actively and dread to be part of the team. Attending training causes them to be unhappy, resulting in their poor performance in games. ----- What should I do? ------ Encourage the survivor to attend training and offer to be their training buddy. By having someone to attend training together, it will be more fun where relationships can be built. This way, the survivor will start to put in more effort and attend more training activities when they feel that they belong to the team. 5) Happy Go Lucky The real Happy Go Lucky arrives for training late, takes unnecessary breaks, and ignores the team's dynamics. However, this trait may be hard to distinguish since it could be easily covered up with excuses. For individuals who are serious about the sport, they will usually start training on time, practice outside of school, and put in extra effort to become better. Hence, if they start to exhibit behaviors of the actual Happy Go Lucky, this could be a sign that they may be feeling unhappy due to poor performance or blamed by others . If not, they may feel tired or uninterested in such commitment. ----- What should I do? ------ - Identify if a team member is a real Happy Go Lucky or not. - If they are not, embrace their weaknesses and guide them along during training . - For the real ones, provide constant reminders to stay alert in-game and make them feel they belonged in the team to motivate them. 6) The Showoff The showoff seeks attention from others by flaunting things they are good at. They think highly of themselves and aim for success towards personal benefits rather than for the team. They may also throw harsh comments haphazardly whenever they believe they are right. Therefore, when they play solo and do not follow the team's strategy, team members will then feel annoyed, and conflicts may occur. When they are seen as less expressive and perform worse than before, this could be a sign they are not motivated anymore. ----- What should I do? ------ Only praise them when necessary and highlight that the team cohesiveness is essential to perform well. Encourage this person to help weaker teammates; this helps to garner positive attention and be perceived as helpful . Provide advice to ensure they present themselves humbly and positively so that people will like them. You may also like Do you have the qualities to be a student leader?

This includes; - Passing them alarm tag (which is an item used to arm the system) and ask a few of the trainees to demonstrate the procedures in my presence. - Purposely set off the alarm to let the user have a firsthand experience of alarm activation . Moreover, during times of panic , they should know what setting to look out for and react to it. - Ensure trainee are aware the importance of giving control center a call to clarify they have reset the alarm system.

  • Want to become a better leader in JC? Here's 4 ways to help you!

    Promoting from secondary school to JC, most of you who once had leadership roles might be looking for leadership opportunities. Instead of repeating the same leadership process again in JC, here are four suggestions for you to discover new leadership styles and contexts so that you can experience growth and progress in your leadership journey Want to become a better leader in JC? Here's 4 ways to help you! Brought to you by: WE Development Content written by: Christy Lee Last Updated: 9 June 2021 at 2:57:41 am Say Hello Article Tips Say Hello Share with someone you care ! Promoting from secondary school to JC, most of you who once had leadership roles might be looking for leadership opportunities. Instead of repeating the same leadership process again in JC, here are four suggestions for you to discover new leadership styles and contexts so that you can experience growth and progress in your leadership journey 1) Skills upgrade 2) More self-initiation 3) Leave a legacy 4) Self-reflect 1) Skills upgrade - In JC, you can consider taking up a leadership role that requires a greater amount of responsibility and skills set . Often, this means a leadership position that requires a higher caliber. - This way, you can serve a larger group of people, and while catering to their needs and leading with solutions, you would be able to acquire more leadership skills such as public speaking, strategic planning and executions. - Such new soft skills, together with the existing ones you already possess, will sharpen your leadership style and will be very applicable to your future. 2) More self-initiation - In JC, more flexibility and autonomy are given to students because teachers want to nurture independent and innovative student leaders. - One should use this distinct characteristic of JC leadership to self-initiate new and creative projects. This includes setting up interest groups or community service events that align with your interests, beliefs, and principles. - This is the perfect avenue for you to use your originality to realise a plan you have aspired to lead. Through this, you will understand the importance of having the need to motivate people, providing the right information, and planning a good process that enables good implementations. 3) Leave a legacy i) It will be desirable if you manage to leave something beneficial and long-lasting for the organisation you are serving or your juniors upon graduation. ii) Leaving a legacy marks your positive contribution as a leader who has good leadership qualities iii) Examples of sustainable systems that can be left behind include; - Administrative systems - A successful project that would continue to be held annually - A long-term partnership of your CCA with an organisation/sponsor 4) Self-reflect i) Self-reflection is an important process whereby you recall your actions for the day, for the past week, or even from a long time ago , and think - What you have done well - What you could have done better - What you should not have done at all - What you should avoid in the future ii) It can take the form of; - writing a diary - blogging - any other ways of recording the process down. iii) Do not stop at noting it down. Go back to them and read through from time to time. This helps to crystallise important lessons learned, prevent yourself from letting history repeat itself, and apply the good aspects for the future.

Testing of software Brought to you by: WE Development Content written by: WE Development Last Updated: 9 June 2021 at 2:43:53 am Say Hello Article Job Process Say Hello Share with someone you care ! We have to ensure input to the program will achieve the desired output. 1) Verify if the function works as expected by giving the same input and compute values in both the program and an excel sheet. Purpose is to manually check if the output from excel tallies with my created function. Note: A more professional and efficient method is to create a script for automated testing ; Usually for larger-scale projects. This means I do not have to verify each value manually, but the script will reflect errors when it captures discrepancies. i) Initial manual verification is still needed for automated testing and will be changed whenever calculations in the source code is edited. ii) Besides calculation, check if an URL is valid using HTTP status code (can easily google the list of codes). The function for this test is called manage.py. However, the shortcoming is if the URL requires pre-login, the status may reflect pass, but in actuality, the page was redirected to the login page. I thought that Django has a good module for automated testing. iii) Automated testing is useful for large projects or facilitates easy troubleshooting in the future where developers are not familiar with the code anymore. 2) Most often, I am using manual testing because the project is small. 3) I will run through my checklist to ensure all testing are aligned to the agreed requirements with my customers. 4) When we are creating a new system referencing from an old one , we will feed the input into both and validate if their results are the same.

However, it isn't easy when they have their interpretation of the collaboration. Motivate customers to follow instruction Brought to you by: WE Development Content written by: WE Development Last Updated: 9 June 2021 at 2:49:49 am Say Hello Article Job Process Say Hello Share with someone you care ! Why can't my customer follow instructions? As a service/product provider, our responsibility is to ensure our customer follows proper instruction to achieve optimum results. However, it isn't easy when they have their interpretation of the collaboration. Here are a few types of customer who doesn't follow instructions with tips on how to motivate them; 1) The very busy - This customer is too busy to discuss with you and thus ignored your instructions and carried out otherwise. Tips: You may try to motivate them by letting them know the collaboration work was poor and help them identify areas to improve. Show that you care about the work quality and you want them to do well. Help them find a solution to help you complete your work . 2) The demanding - This customer will show dominance in authority and knowledge. This person will insist that you should change your work curriculum instead of theirs. Tips: You may try to explain your rationale for the work and explain it based on facts and findings . If need be, let the customer know that the work was based on a quotation, and any major changes will be chargeable. Also, you must not be held liable if you fully follow their proposed methods. All these should be detailed down and signed for. 3) The uncooperative - This customer will tend to find the least and easiest work to do. They will skip processes to ensure they can achieve their agenda. (Typically for employees of the customer) Tips: You may try to identify to the customer the importance of following through critical processes . This includes explaining the negative effect of taking "short-cuts" that jeopardise the quality of work and safety (if there is). 4) The quiet - This customer may not know how to feedback, otherwise, do not wish to feedback. Tips: You may try to provide a survey form online and have them fill it up (preferably without the surveyee's name). Otherwise, you may consider take time to build rapport and slowly identify feedbacks in a "non-serious" setting. 5) Not the right person - This customer does not have the right foundation to carried out the tasks specified by the instruction. Tips: You may try to request the customer to attach you someone "fit" to collaborate. This means clearly stating the right kind of skills and knowledge foundation you need to work with. When working on such collaboration, you should communicate your issues in a "non-offending" yet "objective" manner to effectively resolve your customer's problem. Having a good rapport is very important here!

  • There is a Free Rider in my group in Poly!! What should I do?!

    There is a Free Rider in my group in Poly!! What should I do?! Brought to you by: WE Development Content written by: Sophie Ong Last Updated: 31 May 2021 at 4:35:30 am Say Hello Article How-to Guide Say Hello Share with someone you care ! There are many group projects that plays a huge percentage in your subject grade. And, there may be free riders in the group who are irresponsible and are not doing their part. We have identified four ways to help you cope with those free riders! 1) Assign easier tasks 2) Confrontation 3) Report to The Lecturer 4) Take the Responsibility 1) Assign Easier Tasks Everyone in the group will be given a part to do for the group project. Assigning easy tasks to the free riders may get them to do the minimal amount of work for the group. These tasks may include work that requires less research and take less time to complete. When should I assign easier tasks? - When your groupmate is - unmotivated and lazy - seems uninterested - constantly seeks help (but not a free-rider) Providing work that requires minimal effort may be a solution - If your groupmate openly state that they only want to do minimal work 2) Confrontation In group settings, take some time after class to speak to this free-rider. Before you decide to confront , always understand the reasons behind the person’s non-contributing behaviour. Show that this conversation is a form of warning message before the team inform the lecturer about the incomplete work. Based on the team's dynamic, persuade the person to submit an appropriate work before the next deadline. When should I confront? - If this free-rider still does not complete the assigned work despite constant reminders through texts and does not reply to the team - If this free-rider gives obvious excuses not to join group calls or group meetings without a valid reason (e.g. have an appointment despite a group meeting arranged beforehand). 3) Report to The Lecturer Reach out to your lecturer, and appropriate actions will be taken accordingly . Also, when assigning the project grades, the lecturer may be more understanding in awarding grades fairly to the respective group members. When should I report to the lecturer? - After you have confronted this free-rider and the performance was not improved, such as; majority of tasks assigned are incomplete, not showing up in most of the group meetings and ignored most of our request to complete assigned tasks. - A tip would be to discuss with other groupmates before reporting to the lecturer together. This will show the lecturer that your group is serious about the project and team cohesiveness, and when it is affecting more than one person, it is a clear sign this is an issue that needs to be resolved. 4) Take the Responsibility Despite having a free rider, the group project still has to be completed , and someone will have to manage the free-rider’s work. You may have to take up the responsibility to complete this work or split it among your other groupmates who are willing to contribute. When should I take responsibility? - When the group project is still incomplete 1 week before the submission date. This is also an urgent period when the group should be working cohesively to complete the leftover work. (The usual case in Polytechnic). Otherwise, the group is simply forsaking the project. - When the quality of work done does not meet requirement and the majority of groupmates are unconcerned about it. - If there is presentation on top of the report submission, you will also need to remind the team to complete it. Never wait till the last hour when all of you are lacked of sleep while rushing the project and making careless mistakes. To wrap up… The best method is to group with people who are serious and responsible in their work. At times, we may not be able to choose our groupmates and active communication must always be present in the group. This means by motivating and listening to each other and consistently sending reminders to complete a milestone! If the situation does not improve, we may have to put in a little more effort than others . At the end of the day, our grades are at stake and we should do whatever it takes even if it is to do another person’s work. Being reasonable, responsible and determined are the 3 important traits when working with people. We hope this message get across well to you!

A methodology called PEEL is used and they are; i) P oint of view (Ask the examiner yes and no questions when interacting such as "Would you like to….", "Do you agree with me?") ii) E xplain (elaborate detailed description so the examiner can visualize based on the words given) iii) E xperience (Use sentences like "I remember five years ago, I experienced…") iv) L ink (Use link-back sentences such as "Which is why...", "The reason behind why...." to link back the topic back to the discussion.

  • Identify customer's needs (Sales)

    When you can connect at a personal level with the customer, you have successfully achieved building a rapport with them. The importance of setting an image will display to the customer what you want them to see. This explains why a salesman's natural behaviour always wants to show the "good side". Identify customer's needs (Sales) Brought to you by: WE Development Content written by: WE Development Last Updated: 9 June 2021 at 2:43:29 am Say Hello Article Job Process Say Hello Share with someone you care ! A salesman is a solution provider. Here, we identified three important skillsets; 1) Build rapport When you can connect at a personal level with the customer, you have successfully achieved building a rapport with them. The importance of setting an image will display to the customer what you want them to see. This explains why a salesman's natural behaviour always wants to show the "good side". Thus, the technique of showing what the customer wants and how you can help them to achieve it will create a professional rapport . At the same time, your character can slowly resonate with them personally, such as interests and hobbies. 2) Active-listening Active listening is the ability to actively listen to what the customer wants across time. As the situation of the prospect changes, you need to adapt to theirs and identify gaps that you can propose as a solution. This explains why successful salesman will like to visit important customers whenever they are free. Hence, the things you should pick-up during the conversation are; i) their interest ii) their budget iii) why they are not interested to purchase Your questions should revolve around these three points. 3) Tell a customised story In comparison to telling how you can help the customer, storytelling can be very powerful. Storytelling is a passive way to tell someone what you can do because they can be immersed in your story and acquire the intention you want them to know. Hence, after you gather information through active-listening, you must sell a story that resonates with their interest and budget . Most importantly, why is their purchase a steal compared to proposals from other competitors. Remember, use real case scenarios and examples in your story, this will help you react more readily if they question you. 4) Diamonds in the feedback After the prospect hears your story, they will have ideas to share. This is where you need to listen again and identify feedbacks. Feedbacks include; i) doubts - which they would like to clarify to make certainty in getting solutions ii) concerns - which they would at this point reveal what is holding them back iii) rejection - which they would show very low interest in your story, they may cut your story, or you can observe they are distracted by looking at their phone and not maintaining eye contact anymore. Tip Always do your homework before telling a story that does not resonate with the interest of the prospect. You will sound like a salesman and not a solution provider.

  • Understand Processes Fast

    Knowing the step-by-step allows you to have clarity in planning! Even though this process is time-consuming, the benefit of having clarity allows you to resolve problems much quickly! Here are a few ways you can do to help understanding processes fast! Understand Processes Fast Brought to you by: WE Development Content written by: WE Development Last Updated: 9 June 2021 at 2:49:57 am Say Hello Article Job Process Say Hello Share with someone you care ! Knowing the step-by-step allows you to have clarity in planning! Even though this process is time-consuming, the benefit of having clarity allows you to resolve problems much quickly! Here are a few ways you can do to help understanding processes fast! 1) If you have the people in the workplace to seek clarification, grab them! People who are well-versed in the process can greatly benefit your understanding of the situation. 2) If you need to work with people from the customer's side, you must identify someone who is closest to the process. Otherwise, identify those who manage the process. Ask your customer if you can work with these critical people to help make you understand their processes. 3) When working with people to gather information about the process, execute from a holistic approach first. Understand what are the major steps first before entering into the "nitty-gritty" areas. If necessary, get your definitions right to enhance your understanding during the conversation. 4) Always stick to your clear objective and avoid sinking into the "nitty-gritty" areas. You may ask yourself; "Is the information provided relevant?", if not, you need to help the other person to focus their explanation on areas you are concerned with. 5) If you do not have the correct people to work with, you may consider finding information by watching videos related to the topic you are working with. Focus on holistic explanation on processes to ensure you understand the situation before jumping into unfamiliar areas. Skip certain parts of the video if necessary. Also, aim to get your basic definitions right! 6) It is important you go through the processes by explaining your understanding with an experienced person related to the process. Clarify and piece up your knowledge to determine whether you have understood the major components. Because time is always the limitation, you must identify the purpose behind critical processes. "Ask why!" This will give you the intention of the work and thus be able to guide you through your thought process more effectively!
