Make Yourself Indispensable on the Job

Continuing with the "hang onto your job" theme, I have added more ways to keep your job and get ahead in the workplace.



  • Speak kindly to everyone--every day.

  • Go above and beyond for your customers. If there is something special you can do, do it.

  • Go above and beyond for the boss by making yourself valuable to him or her.

  • If you must offer criticism, say something positive first.

  • Update your professional image.

  • Maintain a positive attitude at all times.

  • Maintain a "successful" mindset.

  • Make a plan for your advancement and write steps you can take toward that goal.

  • Look for solutions to problems.

  • Hone your leadership skills.

  • Stay away from troublemakers and gossips.

  • Be a results-oriented employee.

Taking appropriate steps today can lead to a rewarding career tomorrow.
