Being Resourceful when being more promotable


You will find that there is a lot to gain when you put yourself in the position of being quality for a promotion. You will know that not only will you think that you are getting more done, but the company will see you as being more resourceful and then you will be more likely to get that promotion and continue to get those promotions. Make sure that you take inconsideration the way that you appear to the company and the way that you appear to others. Keep in mind that when you make yourself resourceful you will be more likely to be promotable. 
The first tip on how to be more resourceful is to learn how to put in time. You will need to make sure that you are available 24/7. This may be harder for some people who have a family, however, you will find that the minute that you make yourself so available you are going to put more hours in at work and you may get paid more (depending if you are hourly or salary) and you'll also get the respect from the higher managers. It is very important that you learn how to put in the time at work. 
Secondly you need to be working and continuously working. Even if it is a slow day, you are going to have to force yourself into being better. You will need to go around asking people for help; doing anything to stay busy. Keep in mind that if you are not working with the company you are working against the company. The boss doesn't want to pay someone for nothing, so you need to make sure that you are continuously working. 
Third way to be resourceful is to lend a hand whenever needed. If you notice a co-worker getting deeper and deeper in procrastination then you need to step up and give them a prep talk, but you will also want to lend a helping hand. You will also find that when your day is going very slow, you'll still need to go around and let all know that you are more than willing to help out. You will want to make sure that you give others the chance to finish their work on their own, however, you just need to let them know that you are the fall back guy to turn to. 
Fourth tip that you will need to keep in mind is that you will need to be reliable. You can't just punch in whenever you want to or take as many breaks as you want. You will need to set the standard that others will admire. You will need to make sure that you talk yourself out from the procrastination and you think every time you do something how it would look like to the boss. You have to be the example that everyone follows. That is the best way that you can be resourceful. You may not be able to help everyone with their projects, however, you will be able to help others focus on things like their work ethics, because you will be the perfect example. 
The fifth and final tip on how to be more resourceful to be more promotable, you will find that it is about being a leader. You need to go to some of your co-workers and give them some motivation to press on with their tasks and work. You will be the one that encourages others to be better or to strive for a faster pace. You will find that there is a lot of things that you can encourage your co-workers to be better workers and that is what will make you a good leader.
