It is not your boss’s responsibility to remember the ample list of employees’ name. Therefore if you want your employer to realize that you are a productive employee hen you have to make him realize your presence and then your significance. Practice this demeanor every single day and then one lucky day you would receive a reciprocate gesture from him. Don’t feel dejected if you don’t get an immediate feedback but be assured your message has been conveyed reliably.

4. Do as your boss say
Most of you are usually rebellious and prefer things done your way. This attitude is deplored in workforce as your employer has recruited you  to get the Task dealt as per his priority. Unless you amend your working procedure to suit your agency’s requirement, you are any headway on making an effective influence on your boss.

5. No office politics/ gossip
Being a grapevine, may not be the best idea. Sharing gossip might earn you popularity but also critical reviews from peers and supervisors. Rather than complaining about your boss or disdaining somebody, it is always worthwhile to get a task completed. If you are the source of a gossip then you are most likely to get tangled in your web. Hence use your time in a more productive way to gain maximum benefit.

6. Punctuality
Punctuality at work and meeting deadlines are essential for any promotion. Nobody pays you for being lethargic and an indolent employee hardly makes any progress in his/her career; therefore arrive at least 15 minutes before your office hours and assemble your work before deadlines
