1. Be
the best- if you have the best productivity and quality on your team, your
manager cannot help but notice this. You will be talked about in manager
meetings and marked as ‘one to watch’ (in a positive way!)
2. Apply
for promotions and impress in the interview. This is a really good way to get
noticed as you have a captive audience made up of the people who can positively
influence your career path.
3. Take
an active part in team meetings. Meetings are a great opportunity for you to
demonstrate your knowledge and show that you have the ability to think
critically about how your team works. Make sure, though, that you really know
what you’re talking about otherwise the only reputation you’ll get is as
someone who likes the sound of their own voice!
4. Volunteer
for projects. Sometimes (how often depends on the type and size of your
employer) there will be opportunities to become involved in projects such as Lean
Six Sigma initiatives or testing software upgrades. By volunteering, you show
that you’re engaged with the business and as long as you do a good job your stock
will certainly rise.
5. Improve
a process – as you gain experience, you’ll notice that you find ways of doing
the job better. As long as you don’t work at a company with a ‘well that’s the
way we’ve always done this’ mindset, sharing better ways of doing things are a
great way to get on the map.
