It seems this might be hurting me on the job. What can I do to get noticed?<\/blockquote><figcaption class=\"blockquote-footer\">Signed Anonymous<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Dear Anonymous,<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s unfortunate but we all live with that stereotype. That you are asking about getting noticed indicate you probably don\u2019t exactly fit that stereotype. The obvious way to get noticed is to do noticeable things. But what is that?<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ve been a manager for a long time and I\u2019ve come to realize that there are two types of people I don\u2019t like working for me. First, there are those that <em>don\u2019t do<\/em> what I asked them to do. Second, there are those that will <em>only do<\/em> what I asked them to do.<\/p>\n<p>To take the cynical view, every manager\u2019s goal is get his staff to make him\/her look good to his\/her boss. To be fair though, the good manager is able to align that selfish objective with the company\u2019s goals. If my subordinate <em>does not do<\/em> what I asked, then he cannot be counted on to do his job and will obviously cause me and my Department trouble. Actually, people like this will get noticed, but in a very bad way!<\/p>\n<p>If my subordinate will <em>only do<\/em> what I tell him to do, then he will need constant management to do a good job. What\u2019s wrong with that? A dynamic organization must have strong competent people that have the initiative to help push the unit forward. It would be a lost cause if the burden falls solely on the Manager\u2019s shoulders.<\/p>\n<p>So how do you get noticed? You get noticed if you go beyond your assigned tasks and demonstrate leadership, initiative and good business judgment. Just keeping your head down and doing your assigned tasks well will not get you noticed. People that will only do what\u2019s asked of them will drift to the lower part of the organizational pyramid.<\/p>\n<p>It might be cultural but Asian Americans don\u2019t generally speak up in group settings. If you don\u2019t speak up then you are reinforcing the stereotype. But voicing opinions are risky because you could make a fool of yourself.<\/p>\n<p>The way to reduce the adverse risk is you must do a lot of homework to understand the business you are in. You have to look from the inside and from the outside. Understand what economic and competitive factors drive your industry, your company and your department. Do your research and think about how your company and your department can grow and improve. Think about your corporate culture and how things get done within the company.<\/p>\n<p>If you put in this hard work, you will have a firm foundation and frame of reference for making forceful and well thought out comments and suggestions in the group setting and to your manager. If you can do this, you will be noticed and hopefully assigned more challenging jobs that\u2019ll get you on the \u201cup and comer list\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>There are two other key enablers necessary to get noticed. You <em>absolutely<\/em> must be able to communicate your ideas and proposals. That means you have to work on verbal and written\/PowerPoint skills. If you cannot get your ideas across clearly and concisely then at best you\u2019ve wasted your time and at worst you will appear to your manager to be confused and incoherent. I\u2019ll write about these necessary skills in a future Blog.<\/p>\n<p>\u2014Wee<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I might be a stereotypical Asian-American (kinda geeky and generally quiet).
