As the saying goes, those who are close to Zhu are red, and those who are close to ink are black, what kind of people they intersect with and what kind of circle they mix with, what kind of people they will become.
Don't say such noble words as "out of the mud but not stained, and pure lotus without demons", friend!
There are very few people who are able to maintain their true colors in a harsh environment without being affected by their surroundings.
At the beginning of the workplace, as a novice in the workplace, how to see a person clearly, understand his behavior and character, and then determine what kind of social relationship to maintain with him, is very important for future growth.
Getting to know others and building good relationships is key to integrating into a new environment. Here are some practical ways to help you get to know others quickly and make you a "person who understands" in the workplace.
Observe words and deeds
Pay attention to other people's non-verbal signals, such as facial expressions, body language, and posture, which can reveal a person's personality, emotional state, and level of self-confidence.
Observe whether they behave differently in different situations, such as at work, leisure, or in social situations.
Pay attention to how they interact with others, such as whether they are actively communicating with others, whether they are helpful, etc.
Listen to the conversation
Actively participate in brainstorming and lead conversations by asking questions and sharing ideas.
Listening to other people's perspectives and opinions, especially what they share about themselves, family, work, hobbies, etc., can help you understand their values and lifestyle.
When appropriate, express your interest and concern about what they are talking about, such as nodding your head to show understanding or asking relevant questions to deepen the conversation.
Get context
Ask for background information about others where appropriate, such as their hometown, education, career, etc. This can be done through small talk or natural conversations when participating in team activities.
Use social** or team internal communication tools to view other people's profiles, work results, and interests to understand their experiences and interests.
Keep an eye out for announcements and notifications within the group to understand the team's organizational structure, members' responsibilities, and project progress, which will help you understand the roles and contributions of others in the team.
Respect the privacy of others and be polite
Avoid asking overly sensitive or personal questions, such as family disputes, health conditions, or religious beliefs.
Be polite and respectful during communication and avoid interrupting others or making disrespectful remarks.
Respect the personal space and privacy of others, and avoid obtaining or using other people's personal information without permission.
Through the above methods, you can gradually get to know the members of the new group and build good interpersonal relationships. Remember, it takes time to connect with others, and being patient and genuine is key.
