Becoming Irreplaceable
Hello out there, Community! I'm glad you're here. Today I'm sharing an article from inc.com the showcases an interview with Mark Cuban, from Shark Tank, where he tells us all about how to be an irreplaceable employee.
First and foremost, Cuban says, "The greatest value you can offer a boss is to reduce their stress." Here's how:
- Take care of your mental health and well-being. "Mental health is a vast topic with many aspects to consider. However, leaders should focus on employees who prioritize their self-care for workplace application. These individuals structure their schedules to prioritize their well-being while maintaining high-performance levels.
- Run away from workplace drama. "Getting caught in the whirlwind of workplace drama will overload your attention and take your focus away from what is most important--your work! Time lost to workplace drama could be costing your business a lot of money."
- Practice emotional intelligence. "Emotional intelligence is not only an important predictor of job success, but also a strongly desirable skill as people get promoted into the management ranks. "
Simple! Practicing all of these tips together result in a super star employee. The article linked above contains the full interview for even more details. Let's chat in the comments about traits of great employees. Take care!
