As much as it is necessary to work hard, be systematic and love your job, it is equally important to gain respect from seniors at work. A senior when happy can give you the best environment in office and also your dream pay scale with less effort. While performers who are innocent or idol in social networking tend to go through the monotonous position for years, the smart, the innovative group moves forward in less amount of time. This seems easier to be taught then in practice, while the senior has the leverage to be upset with you at no whatsoever specific reason you might have to refrain your anger multiple times according to the situation. Hence there can be some key aspects as to how you can make your working easy and admirable for those seniors.

1. Be smart

Smart

To sum it all, being smart will always be the key in a workplace. You might be hard working, religious, punctual but if you are not smart you shall never be able to get those extra credits. Seniors look for those sharp brains who can not only solve their small problems quickly but also be there in need. Hence a smart employee knows when to arrive at the office, when to leave, what work to do and what to postpone, which projects to take and which ones to let go. Do not be a follower but analyse smartly the situation at your workplace and make sure you do stuff which is helpful, diligent and admirable.

2. Support and coordinate

coordinate

You are a power house of energy as a youngster and the seniors at your work place are slow and tired. They have done their bit of hard work and therefore might get lethargic at some instances, make sure you do not over board their files and rather be quick to off load them. Nobody hates the work being shared, though credit given to the seniors is always expected. Coordinate with your seniors, support them when required, help them when possible and make an effort to  keep the relationship healthy. Do not fight or crib for the wrong things because privileges are granted over time, rushing to them might fire back on you.

3. Respect and you shall get it back!

Respect

Often we hear of new comers coming and making fun of their seniors. Remember it is not your school, in corporate world seniors are considered to be an edge higher and are always given their due credit. If you try to bully them or make fun of them behind their back, remember you are new to the firm not them. The information shall reach their years sooner or later getting you into trouble; therefore maintain the dignity and decorum of the company you work in always.

4. Give weight-age to their experience

experience

Do not move around like a know it all and show away your knowledge in the board room or elsewhere, it doesn’t happen like serials in real life. Most probably there is a chance of them knowing more than not for their education but because of their excessive experience, do not shove it off. Their experience has been attained through rigorous work over the years, therefore practicality of the firm can only be known when you work for the equal or approximate amount of time, when that’s not possible remember to respect and give weight age to their experience. Let them know when it helped you get out of tricky situations, it sure will make their day or at least put a positive impact on your feedback.

5. Learn

Learn

A person who thinks he knows all, might not know that he is wrong. For a youngster to know everything is like a kidney patient to be cured before he’s suffered the experience of being on dialysis. You should learn when they teach you, follow their orders when asked to and ask when you need to. But remembering asking too many questions doesn’t show your curiosity but your immaturity to learn slow. Therefore try and be extremely careful when your seniors speak and take note of all he is trying to convey to you. Your expert listening will always impress him for it is a courteous trait.
