Why do "slackers" often gain the most power in the workplace?

Although everyone in the workplace wants a promotion and salary increase, there are so many positions and resources, and it is impossible to meet all people's needs in a competitive environment.

There is a saying in the workplace: "If you are not outstanding, you will be out." But the reality is that there is such a kind of people, who may not be outstanding, but can get along, let alone let them out.

Therefore, such people are called "career veterans". To put it mildly, they are called career seniors. To put it mildly, they are just career slackers.

There is a good saying, "Existence must be reasonable." The existence of such people naturally has their own wisdom and the way to survive.

The relationship in the workplace is complicated, such as the relationship between fellow villagers, academics, and mentoring ... It can be described as dazzling, and you never know what kind of relationship this person has with the top.

The biggest feature of those "smooth hands" in the workplace is their good interpersonal relationship. The top level is the master, the middle level is the other disciples, and the grassroots are all apprentices. As long as they are willing, everyone who can do a small thing is well known, and even small things may be handled in a typical way.

People wander around the workplace to make money, not make trouble for themselves, so the best way to meet such people is to stay away from them. If you can get closer, it's fine, but don't go too close, because no one else's solid foundation is likely to be used as an example.

The working relationship is weakened by them, and more emphasis is placed on all kinds of feelings arising from the working relationship. Most of these people have deep "qualifications" in the company, and their positions are not high, but their influence is not small.

in the workplace, although it is performance-oriented, not everything can be covered by performance. For example, your performance is good, but people have a good relationship with leaders, and it is always their turn to encounter good things.

The reason why people are strong is because of the exchange of values, and the exchange of values includes the exchange of emotions, which is the so-called "true heart for true feelings". Leadership is a person, not a machine, and there is also a saying of closeness.

The work may be average, which is to hide others' ignorance, and the personal affairs are to close the relationship. It's your duty to do a good job, because you get paid to do a good job, and it's an extra thing to do a good job in private affairs, which is equivalent to an additional question, reflecting his deeper value. This is why many leaders emphasize "borderless" work.

What you see is just what you see. What really plays a key role is often more below the tip of the iceberg.

Most of the "smooth hands" in the workplace are not positive, giving people a feeling of mixed eating and waiting for death. In fact, many people are deceived by this appearance.

What really determines your weight in the eyes of leaders and colleagues are those valuable but frequent problems. For example, such people clearly see the problem, but pretend not to know, but privately do enough to deal with possible problems. When the problem is highlighted, it is the best time to show their value.

no matter how big or small things are, there are bound to be key points, just like a sub-contract, where the key points are the transaction price, payment method, and the differences from the conventional contract. Focus on the key links, and other points are not unimportant, just to better support the foundation of key points.

The "smooth operator" in the workplace can always grasp the key points in all kinds of things, and exert his strength on the key points, so that time and energy are better distributed and his own value is amplified. As a result, he seems to be eating and waiting for death, but the leader is relieved to use it.
