In the office, there always seem to be a few villains, whose professional ability is not the best, and he doesn't feel particularly dedicated, but he just has a way to become a celebrity in the company, and is assigned more resources than others and sits in a higher position.
When I first entered the workplace, I hated such villains very much, thinking that they did not spend time and effort to improve their profession, but always used their cleverness to do things, and there was no shame at all. But then I found out that those "villains" are getting better and better in their careers, while those who are "high" are getting worse and worse, which makes me wonder if I have misunderstood something.
Office villains get better and better
On the contrary, the upright man and gentleman are getting worse and worse
I used to think that it must be because of the bad atmosphere of the company, so the villain can gain power. But then I realized that it wasn't that simple.
Maybe there is such a person in your office, he seems to be relaxed every day, and sometimes he is lazy or pushy, but he has a very good relationship with his boss, and he is assigned important tasks to do. My friend once complained to me that there was such a person in their company, and every time he talked about him, he would scoff at him, saying that that person was simply a "villain", who would only meet the horse and manage upwards, and he was not doing anything at all, and he looked down on this kind of person from the bottom of his heart. I think that a good employee is to be comprehensive, work hard, not engage in interpersonal relationships, as long as you work hard, you will be seen one day.
But such a high-minded and unrefined person eventually became more and more marginal, but that colleague finally became an important cadre of the company.
The pretentious person looks at the villain unpleasantly,
The villain is completely too lazy to pay attention to those gentlemen
Later, I found out that in fact, who is the villain and who is the gentleman is very subjective many times.
Many people who pride themselves on being high in the workplace actually get one thing wrong: he tries hard to prove that he is morally perfect and stands out from the crowd, but he doesn't realize that the essence of the company is to make money, and what the company cares about most is not how positive and honest you are, or whether you will help the old lady cross the road after work, but whether you have the ability to solve the company's pain points and the weaknesses of the service boss.
If you think that as long as you are a "decent gentleman", your career luck will be prosperous, then you are simply treating the company as a school and getting stuck in the logic of "being a good baby can get a little star".
And the villain in your eyes, they have long seen through this, and he will try to push away ineffective trivial work, not because he is lazy, but because he is shrewd and knows to recharge his energy to do what his boss really cares about. He took the time to build contacts and build good relationships, not because he was flattering, but because he knew that as long as the personnel were in order, things would go smoothly, which was a human sophistication.
In the final analysis, the villain and the pretentious person work hard at different levels, and the pretentious person does not like the villain, but the villain is completely uninterested in dealing with the pretentious person.
Let go of the Qinggao character set,
In order to truly open the road to career promotion
If you don't care about career luck and just want to live a "righteous gentleman" who meets your inner expectations, the above should not be your problem at all, because you should have already left the company you don't like and looked for a more suitable place for yourself.
But if you are worried about your career on the one hand, and insist on a certain "noble personality" on the other hand, you may have to re-evaluate the cognitive difference between social reality and your own image.
People should not become "real villains" who frame, bully, or oppress others, but if they want to climb up in the crowd, it is not enough to rely on "moral character." Accepting good baby morality as soon as possible is not a guarantee of success, so that you can start the road to promotion earlier, and be wary of yourself in the process of climbing up, do not forget your original intention.
