·Not Judgmental. Give your co-workers benefit of doubt. Focus on getting a result or solving problem at hand. Ask yourself, “Do I know all facts?” Judging puts you in an emotional quagmire. Don’t go there!

·Above Hearsay. In court, testimony is inadmissible unless witness tells what he or she observed with his or her five senses. Don’t repeat anything that you don’t know first-hand. Build credibility by not taking sides or gossiping. Report only what you know! Don’t speculate!

·Don’t Project. Psychologists tell us that we see our own faults in others’ behavior. Know yourself and what you don’t like about yourself, and then deal with it outside of work! Don’t project it onto your colleagues.

5.Aligned with Company. In their book, A Simpler Way, Margaret Wheatley and Myron Kellner-Rogers posit that we gather in organizations to do work we can’t accomplish alone. But we must make sure our personal life vision is aligned with vision of company.

If we can’t support company’s vision, we withdraw our energy from company and invest it elsewhere. Neither you nor your employer is well served if you can’t support your employer’s mission. Do your homework before, during and after your interview. Check company website, it’s annual report and anything else you can find about it. If you can’t support company’s purpose, find one you can support!

Employees with results-driven attitudes, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills, emotionally well adjusted and aligned with company are worth their weight in gold! Figure out how to be this way yourself and employers will clamor to work with you!
