Have you ever said these words: “Well, I really don’t know what to do in my job.”? Guess what? It’s your job to know that. So walk into your supervisor’s office and say this. “Hey, boss, I want to rock my job. I think my top priorities to get done this week happen to be these things, and I think the numbers I need to hit this week happen to be these numbers. Do you agree?”
Find out by being proactive and bringing to the plate a whole plan that he or she can react to. That’s the game you want to be in is making sure you’re bringing ideas that they can respond to. The last thing you want to do is say, “My boss never tells me what to do. I don’t know how to win so I’m just putting in my time.” Your job is to know how to bring the most value. Be the person who decides to get that information so you can rock your job.
