Why do leaders in the workplace don't like to promote honest people, just because they have these three habits
Honest people have always been liked by everyone. In the past, when people married girls, they hoped to marry their daughter to an honest person. Many people also like to be friends with honest people, but in the workplace you will find those of us all The honest people who like them very much can't eat it, and it's hard to get a promotion! And they have very few real friends, why is that?
Everyone likes honest people, but why are honest people so unpopular in the workplace? Just because they have these three habits, these three habits are often taboo in the workplace. Therefore, leaders will not promote honest people in some important positions, and will only hand them over to those relatively unimportant things, such as warehouse administrators, company attendance, expense reimbursement accounting, etc.!
So what are their habits that make leaders less willing to promote honest people? I think it is mainly for these three reasons.
First: do not know how to work around
Honest people often have such a habit or characteristic, that is, they don't know how to be flexible. They do what their boss tells them to do. They never make changes because of changes in the situation, but the workplace can be regarded as a small river and lake. There are many variables. For example, when going out to talk about business, some internal bottom-line prices are generally left at the end, so that the company can obtain the greatest benefits!
And those honest people directly stated their bottom line, causing their company to suffer a lot of losses in vain!
The second: the good old man
Although this kind of person is honest, he is also a good-natured person. No one wants to offend anyone. He just does his own thing with peace of mind. He will agree to anyone who asks him to help, but the help is only trivial. Everyone verbally thank you, but these small things are basically done by individuals. Even if you help others, others may not really thank you!
They will only think that you are a cheap labor force, and they will let you help him even if they can do things they can do. Anyway, they think that there is no cost for you to help, it is nothing more than a verbal thank you! Often, because helping other people's own work is not done well, it delays the progress of the company! This kind of unprincipled behavior makes the boss think that you are a dispensable person. You help others, but it makes the boss think that you have made other employees lazy. Seriously affected the overall development of the company! These honest people who often have to be laid off are always the first to be laid off!
The third: no temper
One of the characteristics of honest people is that they have no temper, as if anyone can be bullied, and even if they are bullied by others, they do not dare to speak up, and they will choose to swallow it up!
In this case, it will be considered by others to be spineless. Anyone can make a decision. If a company wants to develop, it must be tough on the outside. How to protect the interests?
Because of these three habits, it is generally difficult for honest people to be promoted in the workplace. However, for some people who do not need to be flexible and only need to follow the rules, this kind of position is more suitable for them. Just like the warehouse manager mentioned above, the work attendance of the unit , performance accounting, etc., not afraid of them cheating!
So no matter what kind of people have their own role, as long as they are used well, they are talents. Some people are not what we said they are not talents, but they are just misplaced.
