Work hard at work, but you don t get a promotion and a salary increase, why do you think that?

Mondo Workplace Updated on 2024-01-31

Judging from 20 years of work experience, promotion and salary increase have little to do with serious and hard work, at least not strongly related.

If there is anything to do with serious efforts, the only effect is to silence the voices of skepticism. There are many people who want to be on the top, but there are few people who can be on the top, and if you don't "act" a serious and hard-working appearance, you will definitely be questioned.

Originally, "unfair competition" was the norm, but if there were doubts, the resistance would increase. Due to the influence of "motivational cognition", there are always people who feel that as long as they work hard and hard, they will be promoted and raised, and if they do not achieve it, there will be an imbalance in their hearts.

In fact, there is no "strong link" between serious and hard work and promotion and salary increase. If you want to get a promotion and a salary increase, you need to think about the following points.

"Luck" is not a matter of faith, it belongs to the category of metaphysics, even if you know all the "unspoken rules", know all the routines, and can still do it, but all the efforts may be in vain.

The college classmates have maintained a relationship for a long time, the one that should be sent has been delivered, and the relationship that should be dredged is also in place, but at the critical moment of promotion, the number one resulted in a cerebral infarction and was hospitalized, and then the personnel was frozen.

A few months later, the leadership took a back seat, and the new top of the leadership underwent a wide range of personnel appointments. Because the college classmates are the descendants of the old leaders, they are not further reused.

There is also a friend who met an old brother while playing badminton, and the two talked happily and became a year-old friend. At the time, I didn't think about anything, I just thought that the level was about the same and we could play together. As a result, a few years later, the old brother suddenly "parachuted" and became the leader of the unit, and since then it has been smooth sailing, which can be described as a green journey.

You say luck doesn't matter, it always plays a key role;You say it's important, you can't catch it if you want to. However, who would say that they got a promotion and a salary increase by luck?Although no one says it, it doesn't mean that it is not important and does not exist.

It is a good wish to have your wishes come true, but everyone knows that the chances of your wishes coming true are too low. As far as promotion and salary increase are concerned, it's just that you think about it, not that others will think about it for you, everyone is busy, and no one really cares what you think.

Unless you are good for others and have played a very important role, and your promotion is good for others, then others will naturally support you to take the position, for example, you can lead everyone to make more money and open up more markets if you are promoted;If you are promoted and raised, the leader can feel at ease, worry-free, and comfortable, and even get greater benefits than the original (make up for it by yourself here).

Work hard at work, but it's not good for others, and promotion and salary increase are just thinking about it. Even if you are lucky enough to meet a real Bole, appreciate your talent, cultivate you and promote you, and look forward to the benefits you can bring to him in the future.

Everyone has a selfish side, and who doesn't think about their own interests?is also to promote subordinates, whoever can bring him more benefits, whose chances of promotion and salary increase are greater.

It's like a saying in the workplace:"Don't say what you want, it's what you can offer. "You don't necessarily want to get paid first, at least let others see the value you may bring in the future.

Competition is an eternal topic in the workplace, and the situation of more wolves and less meat will not change much. For example, the "strong connections" such as the hometown faction and the academic faction are the basis for promotion and salary increases, and at the same time, they are also maintaining a delicate balance.

This balance is made up of "strong associations", and no one wants to be the first to break this balance, but it is just a tacit back and forth.

"Weak connections" often become opportunities for promotion. For example, if you meet a certain big guy by chance, the scales have all the tilt.

Just as most jobs are not obtained through formal channels such as submitting job applications or responding to job postings, but through various social connections and informal information. - The Theory of the Evolution of Rights

Because of this, many people have put a lot of effort into expanding their careers. For example, make friends with dignitaries and dignitaries, and make more high-quality people.

Because of "motivational cognition", people are more willing to believe that what they already have is their own value, such as relationships, connections, and positions. It is not denied that these are related to their own value, but they cannot be called their own value entirely.

Self-worth here refers specifically to things that cannot be taken away by others once acquired, such as knowledge, experience, skills, ......When you get it, you belong to yourself. Others can't take it away at all, of course, the innate relationship and background (second generation, third generation) are also the embodiment of their own value.

When the value of oneself is irreplaceable, or the cost of substitution is high, the power distributor will naturally consider a promotion and salary increase for you, whether it is to mobilize enthusiasm or avoid becoming a competitor in the future.

Take 10,000 steps back, as long as your own value is irreplaceable, or when the cost of substitution is high, even if it is heavy and not used, the symbolic meaning is greater than the actual meaning, you can achieve the purpose of promotion and salary increase, especially when the value is greater than the position.

Although the unit will try its best to select talents for development, the key is that the promotion is carried out by people. Just like people often say: "once a son of heaven and a courtier".

A thousand leaders have a thousand appearances, but in the final analysis, they can't escape from human nature. For example, in front of interests, the superior will first consider his own and then consider you, so you should consider the problem from the perspective of the leader and guide the leader to achieve upward management.

In other words, parents also like obedient and well-behaved children, and leaders are even more so, so how can as a subordinate achieve their desire for promotion and salary increase while being "obedient and well-behaved"?

For another example, increasing your own ** rate, just like a theory in psychology, when others remember, it means that you are more likely to choose you, at least easier to choose than those who are unknown.

Excavating human nature and then managing people's hearts and minds may not be immediate, but at least it can make the road to promotion smoother. Of course, it is important to note that you should not use self-righteous ways, but in a way that the other person likes.

At least before you become a big coffee, it's not that you can do what you want, but how the leader wants you to do it, and how you can achieve your ideas on the premise of doing what the leader wants you to do.

Although everyone wants a promotion and a salary increase, it is a pity that there are fewer people who can realize this wish. Especially for those who think that they can achieve this wish by working hard and hard, I am afraid that more people will be disappointed. It's not that leaders are jealous of their abilities, but that everyone's evaluation criteria are different. In other words, even if the criteria for selecting talents are different for the power distributors, there are great differences in the objects chosen by different people.
