Dear Dilip,
Thank you for sharing the nice attachments. Humbleness is one of the important behaviors and attributes of a person that helps with consistent growth and lasting success. Humility is a quality that, when adopted by a manager in an organization, builds confidence with their superiors, subordinates, and colleagues. When leaders embody humility, they are admired by others in a more profound way and achieve success in their lives. Courteous behavior is a major factor that contributes to maintaining a positive work environment. Humility pays off by creating a climate that discourages insincerity in the workplace and improves relationships at all levels of the organization. Humility can reduce anxiety, encourage openness, and enhance employees' self-confidence.
Steps to Improve Relationships in the Workplace
1. Remember
- Be realistic about your abilities and skills and seek ways to improve. Learn from others when starting a new job. Recognize that coworkers can help you identify overlooked issues.
- Work within the chain of command. Present your ideas to the appropriate person when you see a need for change. Provide information tactfully. Respect your supervisor's decisions, knowing that they have the authority to replace you.
- Be mindful of other people's experiences and circumstances.
- Reflect on those who have recognized your potential and contributed to developing your talents.
2. Acknowledge
- Celebrate your colleagues' successes without envy.
- Keep track of how and when other employees have supported you on projects. Create a list of your job tasks to streamline processes and assist new employees in learning quickly.
- Specifically describe the contributions of coworkers to projects.
- Express to colleagues why you value working with them.
3. Cooperate
- Identify tasks that coworkers enjoy and excel at. Provide opportunities for skill development. Cross-train employees to help each other during busy periods.
- Assign tasks based on individual abilities.
- Understand your role and perform it to the best of your ability.
4. Listen
- Pause your tasks and seek guidance when unsure how to proceed. Acknowledge unwritten protocols and request instructions.
- Consider coworkers' ideas and accept feedback graciously.
- Listen to advice, even if you have heard it before.
- Learn from both failures and successes. Apply this knowledge to your current situation.
5. Help
- Understand others' needs before offering assistance. Clarify your role in providing help.
- Address needs rather than seeking to be a hero who "saves the day."
- Assist others when possible, regardless of your prior experiences with them.
