What should I do if my leader asks me to do something I am not familiar with?

When people are working, their work ability is constantly improving, people are not born with everything, but under the exercise and cultivation of the day after tomorrow, they make their experience richer and richer, and many things need to be learned and accumulated the day after tomorrow. In the process of working in the workplace, people often put in a lot of effort and will suffer a lot, but people need to face it positively. Leaders always want their subordinates to know everything, so they will arrange their subordinates to do some unfamiliar work, which is actually a workout.

How subordinates complete this work is not much concern for the leader, but only looks at the result. If the subordinate does not complete the work well, then there will be a bad impression in front of the leader, and when there are other opportunities, the subordinate will not be considered. If you want to complete the work well, then you first need to find what you don't understand, you need to have a certain understanding of the obstacles you encounter in the process of work, and you need to ask people who understand in a timely manner, and you can't pretend to understand if you don't understand, and you need to do things after you are ready to improve.

People need to simplify the task, analyze some of the problems encountered, need to gather some relevant information to complete the task, and cannot prepare without preparation, otherwise it is likely to cause a lot of trouble, and it will also bring wrong results. People can solve the simple parts first, and then find other ways to solve the difficult ones. People can ask their colleagues for advice on things they don't know, be humble, and build a good relationship.

People need to have a good relationship with their colleagues, they need to go out to dinner more often, and solving the problem by themselves does not mean that others can't solve it, which may inadvertently bring people an unexpected result, and may also save a lot of time and experience. If one person's strength is not able to accomplish this task effectively, then there is no need to ponder alone. When people face an unfamiliar thing, they tend to retreat, but people need to face it bravely in order to continue to make progress.

The leader asks you to do something unfamiliar, maybe because he thinks you have the potential to do it, so you can communicate more with the leader, how should this matter be carried out?

If it's to promote you, you can do these unfamiliar things. If it's to suppress you, then just refuse, saying that you can't do it.

In this case, I personally think that you should communicate effectively with your leader, explain your ideas, and show that you are not familiar with the work, so as to hope to get the understanding and respect of the leader, and then let him arrange other personnel.

Why is leadership like this? There are three main reasons:

1.The leader hasn't thought about it yet, and he hasn't been blind to the details. This kind of situation is the majority, although a lot of work is routine, but also has its focus, specific points, most of the leader simply and generally arrange you, in fact, he is also thinking about what to pay attention to in this work, what is the focus, what are the highlights of our work and other details.

So this is normal, and in general, the leader thinks of the key points and will tell you.

2.Leaders are deliberately testing you. Relying on the usual practical work, you have entered the eyes of the leader, and the leader intends to test your work ability to see how well you understand it.

In other words, when it comes to a critical time in the workplace, the leader needs to promote a person in charge, you are a candidate, through this one thing, the leader wants to fully understand your ability, and deliberately does not give clear instructions.

3.Leaders find this job simple. Many leaders don't know much about some specific business aspects, and they may think that this work sounds simple, and you do it often, so just explain it briefly. It means that you can do it in the same way as before.

So, in the face of the above three situations, how do we solve them?

1.The leader didn't think about the details and instructed you to work, but in fact, he also wanted you to think about what to do, what the problem is, and what you need to pay attention to. At this time, we should start our brains, and after the leader's instructions, Ku Hekong immediately thought of what difficulties and what needed attention to this work, and put them forward to the leader in time.

And don't promise in person, but you can't pay attention to it afterwards. For example, in the investigation of the superior, we should immediately think of the work of the superior's investigation, the time and place, the precautions for food and accommodation, the research route, and the units that need to cooperate, and communicate with the leader one by one.

2.You can no longer ask the leader for instructions, but you should fully understand the content of this work, and then make a judgment based on your own experience, and ask for advice from old colleagues with similar experience if you don't understand, so as to ensure that you can meet the leader's intentions and complete the work. Of course, after your work plan is mature, you can comprehensively solicit the opinions of the leaders in advance, and it is always beneficial to ask for more instructions and report more in the workplace.

3.The leader feels that the work is simple, and there is no need for specific instructions, or he does not understand the problems and difficulties. At this time, we have to give full play to our business ability, tell the leader on the spot that there are these difficulties in this work, and come up with a few plans for the leader to choose how to solve them.

These are a few suggestions that I hope will help you.

You can repeat your thoughts to the leader, and the leader will tell you that you have misunderstood, and you must be sure again and again when you are so envious that you don't want to take it for granted.

If the leader does not instruct to make it clear that he guessed that he did something wrong, it will affect the work process of Mingchaiyuan, so just ask the leader directly.

If you don't know how to do it, you can ask your colleagues for advice, or you can ask your leader specifically.

There are many reasons why leaders are not sure of their work, you can look at yourself from the perspective of leaders, whether you are not doing perfectly, and you can also compare with employees of the same class to see if you are worse than them.

1. Take into account the mood of the leader and learn to communicate with the leader

Every time the leader releases a task, you don't have your share, and the main reason for this is that "you don't let the leader reassure you". Looking at the problem from the perspective of the leader, when the task is released every day, it must be done by the person you trust the most in your heart.

If you want to become the person most trusted by the leader, you must learn the "sixty-percent doctrine", that is, every time the work is completed 60%, ask the leader how to complete the next work.

After such communication, you can learn to look at the problem from the perspective of the leader, and the leader will be more and more sure of you because of his participation in your work progress.

Second, the previous mistakes have been remembered by the leaders

At work, it is inevitable that you will do something wrong, even if it is a mistake, the leader will remember it and will leave a bad impression on you. After a long time, even if you have excellent performance, you will still not be favored by the leader.

When you encounter such a situation, you can think about the circumstances under which you made a mistake, and then the next time you encounter such a situation, you will not make mistakes and perform a little better, so that the leader will know that you have corrected this matter, so as to have a good impression of you.

3. Participate more in the work between teams

In the face of the tasks proposed by the leader, if you complete them independently, it is also a decent performance in the eyes of the leader, but in the face of the teamwork tasks proposed by the leader, if your performance in the team is better than others, you can highlight that you are stronger than others, and the leader will pay more attention to you and be more sure of your performance.

Summary:In the face of professional life, we must recognize the situation clearly, and do not resent because of the leader's uncertainty, which will only make you less and less valued. for its cynicism,It's better to lower your posture and examine what else you can do so that you can get more opportunities in your career.

First of all, you should adjust your mentality, the leader does not recognize this is normal, it may be because there is something wrong in the report, you must carefully sort out what you have done, find the mistakes, or it may be because the leader does not like you at all, and wants to fire you through this suppression.

You should continue to make progress in life, you should continue to explore, you should continue to strengthen yourself, and you should often ask each other for advice, so as to get the other party's recognition and affirmation.

You should ask the leader if he is not satisfied, and then go to correct the leader's dissatisfaction and revise it several times, so that the leader will be satisfied.

What happens if you do a good job in the unit and don't often contact the leader? My opinion is this, I am now a person who does a good job in a down-to-earth manner, and I have been doing it for several years, I am a character who will not be able to slap the horse and please others, but even if the leader does not reuse you, all kinds of benefits will not be your turn. In my opinion, it is useless to please the leader, because the leader knows that you work hard and seriously, and you are a dispensable person for the leader, even if some people do not work well and often ask for leave, the leader will also like them very much, and the first thing that comes to mind is them, because they are people who can be used for the leader, that is, the person who can bring benefits to the leader.

Many people in the workplace work hard and have good performance, but unfortunately they can't successfully achieve the goal of promotion and salary increase. If there is such a thought, it is entering the wrong zone of thinking. As long as you work hard and do more things in obscurity, leaders and colleagues will like you a little more, and will give you some irrelevant rewards, but when you encounter promotion or a better place, it basically has nothing to do with you.

Maintaining proper working communication with your boss is necessary to promote mutual understanding in the workplace, but it doesn't have to be deliberate. The leader doesn't call you anything good, you don't need to feel aggrieved. Anyone likes to trust someone they know well.

Those colleagues who are often in contact with the leader, the leader will quickly think of this person when he encounters something, remember his cheerfulness, and believe that he will remember the leader's goodness, of course, he will call him. If you don't have contact with the leader, maybe in the leader's heart, you are just like a stranger, except for your name, you have no impression of your character and background, how can you keep a good thing.

You should learn to take credit in front of the leader, let the leader know that you have contributed to the company, and you should strive to improve your ability to leave a deep impression on the leader.

Find a way to contact the leader, communicate with the leader, often go out to eat with the leader, and have a good relationship with the leader, so that slowly the leader will think of you when there is something good.

First of all, you should learn to express yourself in a timely manner, prove your work strength in front of the leader, and at the same time contact and interact with the leader more, so that the leader will notice you.

As the saying goes: "Teach the apprentice, starve the master", whether you admit it or not, this kind of thing is also normal, just enter the new workplace, you will meet such a colleague in the year, so the following will teach you some solutions.

1.Active learning, but also active practice. Don't just say that you don't practice optics, the master taught you to do this yesterday, and today you see that the master is busy, you can give him a hand immediately.

Yesterday my colleague taught you to make **, and today you can also find an opportunity to help your colleague make a **, and even practice by yourself when you get home from work. All learning needs to be put on the ground, otherwise you won't be able to learn no matter how others teach you.

2.Active learning is also skillful, and at the very least, it is necessary to create a good mentoring atmosphere. For example, when we see that the leader and colleagues are busy, we will serve him water, hand him a cigarette when he is idle, chat a few words, be smart, and always create opportunities for learning.

In fact, a month is a short time at all, and all that can be learned is the surface. In addition, he has not been able to mingle with his leadership colleagues, and the master is reluctant to enlarge his moves, of course, he can't learn anything. If every job is like this, youth will be wasted.

But you endure it, insist on doing this for a year or two, or even three or five years, and he is no longer willing to teach, in fact, you have figured out the way here.

4.Of course, there is also a question of understanding when it comes to learning things. The master leads the way and practices in the individual.

Some people don't need a master to teach themselves. In fact, this key "realization" is to constantly observe, speculate, analyze and summarize. And some masters don't teach you alive or dead, and when you can only realize it yourself, you have to "steal the teacher to learn the art" so much.

5.Abandon the student's thinking and want to learn on your own. The workplace is not a school, leaders and colleagues are not teachers, they have no responsibility and obligation to teach you anything, many things and many skills need to rely on their own initiative to learn, rather than waiting for others to arrange.

In short, learning is one's own, teaching or not is someone else's, whether it is in the workplace or in any environment, you must maintain a good attitude.
