A Corporate Fact - IF You Can't Beat Them Then Join Them.

A Corporate World is nowadays no lesser than Battlefield. 

The Common Employee Has  to Fight Everyday war with internal Competition. A.K.A the Other Sides. 

Many times they find Themselves Stuck between Groups, Managers, Project Managers, called as Top of the Food chain. 

They owns the place & runs  the place. They Don't Comply, Agree, with anyone like, Engineers, Management Personal, Execution, Ground Staff, They think They are the bottom of the Food chain. 

 

Really they do belongs to the Bottom of the food chain. 

The Bottom line is always & will be '' lamp to the slaughters '' Till the Evolution of Modern Ages.

Many Times Employees has tremendous pressure to Meet the deadline of the Work assigned to them. They Know it is Not possible to Meet  the deadline in the given time frame. but their Superior is not in mood to hear any so called excuse of their Staff. they just give a order like a caption " this  has to be done within  48 hours ''.

Employee knows that this assignment is  taking his whole weekend. he can't says no because his boss will call him '' incompetent'', he knows saying no means his Performance Appraisal is not going to be well. 

 

in this scenario what should be done ?

If  you tell immediately no to your boss, you will held Captive for no reason. 

you know the outcome. 

Here's the way to fight with it without say a word "no"

You can manage this Assignment within 48 hours or before it. you have to do it. but here's catch. 

you  know  that your boss has  given a mammoth task to you which you had overcome by doing extra efforts,  your extra efforts not going to  unnoticed.

hence what should you do? 

This way you should do it. 

1) Tell your boss this Assignment you had finished just in time, or before the deadline. send him a mail or call him saying '' sir I had done this assignment in  nick of time without affecting my daily workload, I am sending  you right now,  pls go through it & review. if any necessarily major change has to be done then pls let me know ASAP, since i am working from my home & needs to be prepared instantly.  

2) you can mark a copy to your head of the Department for that to just show him, in a nick of time you had done it, without hampering your Daily Routine.  

 

3) By Following this above 02 steps you have ensured to your boss & superior both that you can manage a  Extra assignment at your Extra Personal time for sake the business. 

4) by communication you have registered your efforts to the system & you have shown that you can handle extra assignment but not silently, in future your boss will know you are vigilant about your output, you will not be taking lightly. 

5) By doing this you can ask them to reimbursement for your weekend hours, hence they know next time they will choose to pay you extra or ''Find another Lamb to the slaughters"

By Following this you can shows them that "' you are A hard working  person but not a Fool. '' 

That's the only way as per my perception not to beat them but join them. you can't Fight them for Everyday Every Week, it's waste of your Energy & time. 

It's May or may not be Appropriate for Everyone but the message is short & clear '' Don't let your Effort goes unnoticed" 

Thanks To My readers.
