Work Attitude Values Enhancement : Your

Personal Principles
Some companies conduct work attitude values enhancement programs for their
employees. As a newbie seeking career success, you can use these values as your
own personal work attitude values enhancement principles.

These are my work attitudes when I do my job – Pride, Passion and Belief. A few
years back, I spoke about this general work attitude with some of my new staff and
it was well received. In fact, it worked well as some of them internalized these
attitudes and I could see it in their productivity. I didn’t think I needed to share my
‘personal’ work attitude values enhancement principles with my staff then.

As years past and new people joined the company, the words pride, passion
and belief became more watered down. Somehow, while they still used it as a
guiding principle the value of it was lost. And I felt compelled to tell the other
half of my ‘personal’ work attitude values enhancement story.

I say ‘personal’ work attitude values enhancement principles for a reason. These
principles were some of those that I felt worked well for me. And I did a little scribble
on them a long time ago.

Pride, passion and belief are important as elements within my personal work attitude
values enhancement principles.

However, there is another side to these:

1. Skills
Skills and knowledge are important to complement pride when doing your work as a
newbie seeking career success. You can have a lot of pride and take personal
responsibility for your work. But if you lacked the skills and knowledge to do your
work well, it will not be productive. You will still not be able to achieve the desired
results.

Be aware of the skills and knowledge your work requires. Sharpen those skills. If you
need to learn new ones, make plans to acquire them. You should discuss them with
your immediate supervisor. Skills and knowledge must be the backbone of your pride
at work in order for you to achieve the success you seek.

2. Direction
The second personal work attitude values enhancement principle you should learn is
that passion must be led by direction.

You cannot have burning passion for your work but lack the direction your passion
can be guided towards. Passion is what will pull you through the toughest times at
work. It gives you the energy to burn the midnight oil. It pushes you to do that little
extra.
However, this energy must have a direction. Without direction, your passion goes all
over the place. Your efforts are not concentrated. It is not honed in on completing
the priorities.

3. Action
Last on your personal work attitude values enhancement principle is action. Having a
belief is important when seeking career success. As far as your career success is
concerned, it is even more important if you could align your professional belief with
that of the organization. And this belief must be backed by solid action.

When your beliefs are backed by action, career success is at your doorstep. Have a
plan of action on how you can help your company achieve its goals and at the same
time achieve your career success.

4. Your Personal WAVE


If you can internalize these as your personal work attitude values enhancement
(WAVE) principles, you will greatly increase the chance of career success. Think
about these principles as a wave that pushes you to the shore of career success.
