Become "your own person" in the eyes of others
In a wide range of network resources, we need to choose some reliable friends. These people are able to help us when we need it most, and they don't sit idly by like other ordinary friends, who we usually refer to as "our own people."
The so-called "own people" are those who stand on the same front as us, who have common interests or interests with us, and who are also the most trustworthy people in our lives and careers.
"Our own people" can be our colleagues, our bosses or subordinates, our customers with stable relationships, or our close friends. In short, with the presence of these people, it will be much easier for us to deal with things.
Therefore, each of us needs to have several "own people" to help, and interpersonal situations without "own people" are very dangerous. In other words, if we can become "our own people" for others, we can not only expand our own network, but also provide our own "value" to others, and even find opportunities for our own development from such relationships. Bo Jingshan is the newly transferred principal of a senior high school, he used to be the director of education in a provincial school, and because of his outstanding performance, he was sent by his superiors to serve as the principal of this high school.
Although this high school is not large, it is the best high school in the city, and the teachers and students are very high. Although Bo Jingshan has achieved very good results in the original school, no one can agree with him here, and the school's faculty and staff also think that the management level of the school is enough and no one needs to deal with it. And everyone has great respect for the original principal, so many people around the old principal are particularly uncooperative with Bo Jingshan's work.
Yang Jing, a subordinate of Bo Jingshan, saw that the leader's work was very difficult, so he secretly helped Bo Jingshan a lot. When Bo Jingshan needed some materials, Yang Jing immediately collected them and sent them to him; When a student's parents come to Bo Jingshan to handle affairs, Yang Jing will also actively provide him with information on how the old principal handled such affairs, so that Bo Jingshan can learn from and analyze.
Even Yang Jing introduced some reliable colleagues around him to Bo Jingshan. In this way, Bo Jingshan's work went much smoother, and he was naturally very grateful to Yang Jing in his heart, treating him as his "own person", and leaving everything to him to handle.
Although Yang Jing won Bo Jingshan's trust, he was not proud of it, he still maintained a low-key and humble style of life, and did not take the achievements for himself, but gave the honor to everyone.
A few years later, the old principal retired and went home, and all the affairs of the school were handed over to Bo Jingshan to manage. The first decision Bo Jingshan made was to promote Yang Jing. Because in his work, Yang Jing has always supported him unreservedly, how can he not reward such a "own person"? Being someone else's "own person" is not only the beauty of adulthood, but also the cornerstone of continuous paving for one's own career. In the same field of cooperation, the relationship between everyone is often one with both prosperity and loss. If the person you have perfected has succeeded, then your success is not far off.
Therefore, you should seize the opportunity to become someone else's "own person", then you will definitely gain a lot from it.
