  1. 5 Workplace Conduct that Can Hurt Your Image

  2. Any working individual understands the importance of maintaining a professional behaviour, especially at work. When you maintain a certain workplace conduct, it helps you grow professionally so that your employer takes you seriously. Though every individual might have own list of how to behave at the workplace, there are a few constants we should never forget. Whether you are satisfied with your job in an organization, or are in touch with Dallas employment services and other staffing agencies in Dallas TX for a change of employment, you need to avoid the five workplace habits mentioned in this PPT, which can hurt your image. Read on.

  3. 1. Constant Gossiping Gossiping at workplace is an unhealthy habit that can result in a hostile working environment. Whether positive or negative, avoid gossiping at all costs, if you want your colleagues and bosses to take you seriously. Gossiping could distract you from goal, and also decrease work productivity and quality.

  4. 2. Procrastinating at Work Though some individuals work well under pressure, especially at the last moment, procrastinating in a team of people that depends on your work for further progress in a project could hurt your image. If you are working on a solo project, it may be acceptable to procrastinate, provided the employer is alright or not concerned about the delay.

  5. 3. Being Unreliable Frequently making excuses for not attending a meeting or not being able to deliver on time hurts your credibility. You need to be fully committed to the work at hand, and make sure to deliver what you promised within the stipulated time frame. If you can not follow through due to genuine reasons, let someone else know beforehand.

  6. 4. Not Being a Team Player A positive and collaborative attitude towards your team members goes a long way. Though working independently can be productive and efficient at times, when it comes to communicating and discussing projects with the team, you should not hesitate from putting your best foot forward.

  7. 5. Bullying Your Co-workers Bullying co-workers could put you under unfavorable circumstances, where neither your subordinate nor seniors may support you. Bullying results in a negative environment at work, and can hurt your professional image. Though if you are being bullied at work, you should not take a step back from telling the concerned authorities

  8. Conclusion Individuals need to present their best self at the workplace. This way, you can not only scale professionally and achieve desired success, you can also improve at the personal front. Hope this post would help newly graduate individuals who are looking to start a career, whether independently or through a staffing agency.
