CHARACTER TRAITS AN EMPLOYEE SHOULD POSSESS
If we are talking about the growth of the school, we cannot do without the good character the staff have to possess on the job. Some of them are discussed below.
11. The Character of Company Vision
The first company trait is for the staff to understand the bigger picture of the company where he or she is working. You must see more than the scope of your portfolio and descriptions of your position. Remember that it is because the company exists, that is why you exist and the company sustains you.
If the company paralyzes, definitely you will be affected and your affairs will be affected too. Have a long-term goal and vision for the growth of the organization where you are working.
12. The Character of Right Attitude
The attitude you develop determines your action and what will be coming out of you. Develop the right attitude toward your business or the company where you work. Do not work against the growth and development of the company or say what can affect the company negatively.
It is not ethical to say something or do things that can put the company down. There are different positive attitudes such as the attitude of hard work, passion, easygoing, and so on, not negative attitudes such as laziness, negligence, carefree, and so on.
13. The Character of Loyalty
Another good character you must possess and put in on the job is loyalty. You must be loyal to the company where you are working. Do and handle the job as your job or your business. Be honest and trustworthy. Put the right things on the job. You must be justified in the remuneration you are being paid.
14. The Character of Honesty
Another good characteristic is honesty. You are expected to be honest. If you are not honest, the company will be affected. Do not divert the possessions of the company to your use. Do not divert the money of the company to your purse. Do not cheat or waste the hour or time of the company. Be punctual and do the right things.
15. The Character of Dedication/Commitment
My first question is that you have passion and zeal for the job you are doing. Do you put in your best? If not, you have not been committed to the company.
Lack of commitment of staff may affect the productivity of the company and lack of growth of the company can even affect the staff. Try to have character and use it to grow the business or the company where you are.
