If everyone does that in your company, not much is getting done in your company.

Some managers are so insecure, that they will see these requests as a threat.

You live in lah lah land if you think your seniors will waste their time on this

I work in corporate, cybersecurity. If you want to be a cog in a machine and play the corporate game, this is a great way to do so.
Alternatively, the less people you meet, the more lowkey you become, you become less “intertwined” in the politics and corporate ass kissing,
I’ve done the 2nd, I feel a sense of inner peace knowing I really don’t care about John from marketing, Jacob the director or Bart the mentor. I let the performance, numbers, stats, and quota speak for themselves when it’s end of quarter or time for reviews.
Pro tip- Just don’t be a clown at work.
Pro tip 2- remember, your work will fill your position in a heartbeat if you died. Those mf’s don’t care bout you.

I think this is a great way to network and learn more from all those around you. Some people might not be open to it in your company but so what, keeping trying and be the driver of your success!

Great content. Can I use this as part of my joke routine?

I had an internship where everyone was assigned a mentor but I never arranged a meeting cuz I never wanted it. Ended up the only one with a full-time offer.

Connections with other people might help but the most important factor is your work. I would say connecting with the right people at the right time for the right amount of time is the way to go.

I think this is an excellent illustration of how important being comfortable communicating with people is.

We used to have annual meeting with our manager’s manager (to have open and transparent discussions on reviewing our manager’s performance), that is no longer a thing this year :(
It was from that senior leader who taught us “if you disagree with your manager, have a very valid reason to justify and show alternatives why you think other options are better”.

Yeeee... Having a skip 03 is always dangerous. Your manager has to be secure in their position and they have to reserve the urge to filter out what you are going to say. You also have to keep in mind that while the meeting might be fine, you have to really bring the value. If the meeting is $150 of total time (some of those executive positions pay well hourly), then you have to make it worth $450 of either sales to be made or savings to be earned. That's a tough ask, especially when you are in a new place.

...and that's why you're jobless, stop listening to "influencers" like this guy, who has no idea how real life works.

This advice is gold. It’s the fastest way to fast track your career. People you see at work that are getting promoted quickly are doing this 100%. (Speaking as a manager of managers) Whenever I see this I am always impressed.

Taking those steps feels like diving into the deep end, but it's where the magic happens!

[andrea_dong]

I'd say these are very practical tips but they're also so intimidating to actually execute 😂 I can see how it can increase your visibility at work though!

[dauntless]

I work in a manual labour job where I have no diagonal peers or managers what do I do

[msrose]

I’m so glad I subscribed to this channel. 🎉

[CNYCNY]

Yeah sure.. Great practical advice assuming ppl have time to care

Dude the day I joined every coworker left the company or got fired in under a month, and now it's me and the CEO lol.

It's kinda hard to do all the work myself but it is really beneficial for me to teach myself how to handle multiple tasks in the near future as my own CEO

[learning_trespasser]

hey, I am an Intern, and someone has sent me testing task at 9:00 PM saturday night, and told me to work on priority basis, what should I do, should I ruin my sunday and send the report or just do nothing and start on Monday

[remrem-gxml]

yeah this is a good way to get yourself either fired or isolated. ive worked for companies who tell you to do this. ive tried to do this. its always a bad idea.
