Lessons for Life from Work

While it is not always fun to work for somebody, Life in the Corporate world teaches you many lessons that can equip you with a personality to even start on our own.

Dealing with People: Irrespective of a person’s   level, Work life provides  lot of opportunities to work with People. More often than not, the faster a person learns to work with others the faster will be the growth in the ladder.

Knowing yourself:     Like it or not, you are bound to get a lot of feedback. When you spend some years, you are likely to generate enough feedback that is going to impact the way you approach the things to do in a different perspective. In this process, if you become self-aware   you can learn to tackle even the negative feedback that you would receive.

Knowing  Others:  You are bound to meet a lot of Cranks(according to yourself) on the way. Unfortunately, these people are going to decide your growth. So ,It is necessary to learn the art of “Expectation Management”. As far as I know,Business schools don’t offer such a course.

There are many solutions to a problem : Many of us come from a schooling system that emphasizes on getting  the right answer through a particular method. Working in a corporate world will teach you that there are different ways to solve a certain problem …and none of them is accurate.

Learn to be Organized:  Corporate life teaches you to manage your things…Task management,Time Management & cost management. The process of doing this will equip with “Transferable Skills”,skills that you can apply be it Engineering, Finance or Personal Life
