The leader said it was hard work, how should the subordinate respond? Three responses will give you extra points in the workplace
In the workplace, the most common words that leaders say to us is nothing more than "hard work". What is the significance of the leader saying this? Is it just a polite word to appease everyone? I don't think so.
Therefore, if the leader at work says "You've worked hard", don't respond casually, think about the deep meaning of the leader first, and then respond correctly. In the following three situations, these three response methods will give you extra points in the workplace. As a subordinate, hurry up and learn.
- When the leader expresses his affirmation to you. ====================================================
We have reason to believe that when we have done a great job and made a lot of credit, the leaders who said "it's hard work" must also be attentive.
At this time, the leader turns the affirmation of you into a simple "hard work." We should also sincerely express our gratitude to the leader, and respond plainly with the words "Thank you for the leader's affirmation" and "These are what I should do."
But you must not bluntly ask for credit, but it will make the leader feel that your purpose is too strong, and they will be disgusted with you.
- When the leader expresses dissatisfaction with you. ======================================================
After the work report was completed, the leader kept his face, just perfunctoryly said "It's hard work", and his face was not so good-looking. At this time, don't think that the leader is praising yourself. In fact, he is expressing his dissatisfaction with you in a more polite word, even with an element of anger and criticism.
At this time, you should stop ignorantly thanking the leader, etc., but humbly admit the mistake to the leader, saying that the work is not done well, and will continue to improve, and ask the leader to give opinions.
Only in this way can the leader have the heart to give you guidance and tell you what to do.
- When leaders only want to express politeness. ================================================
In most cases, I believe that when the leader says this "hard work", it is equivalent to a mantra, a must-have word when meeting and greeting. But since the leader has this concern, you should also respect the leader more, and politely say to the leader, "Thank you leader for your concern, the leader has worked harder than us, you should pay more attention to your body."
These three responses may seem simple. The key is to understand the meaning behind the three words "leader" in order to make a correct response.
