The Quick Ways To Be The Best Employee Of The Month By Argo Wibowo At Isnare.com Ezine Articles

Being the best employee is not simply because of your working performance, but also your attitude and character.

By using some acting tips used by actors in the theater, you can soon be the best employee at the office.

Here are those tips:

1. Read the Scenario

Before performing on stage, those actors must spend weeks even months to rehearse. Remember how you prepared your homework or study before exam? Now, it’s quite the same. You need to prepare yourself. Let’s say, you are scheduled for a weekly meeting. That means, you have one whole week to prepare yourself for the meeting. That way, you’ll have a great presentation of the tasks you have been doing the whole week.

2. Get rid of anxiety

Take some time to meditate. 3 to 5 minutes are enough. This can help you get rid of your nervousness. Do this at least twice a day. Once after you reach the office and the other after lunch time. Actors do it not only on rehearsal but also before stage. So, try this one, too, before you get into the meeting room.

3. Be a good spectator

Visualize yourself as part of the spectators. This helps you interact with those ‘watching’ you. By looking from the spectator’s point of view, you will understand their needs. It is the same with putting yourself in your boss’ shoes. By knowing your boss’ need of you, you can give the best for the company.

4. It’s all in your eyes

Acting is all about the eyes. Your eyes are the window to your soul. That is why it is necessary to look into the eyes of the one you are talking to—boss or co-worker—, both in daily conversation and in any company meetings.

5. Vocal Practice

You must hate if you have to listen to someone who cannot control his/her voice. Either too loud or too soft until we can barely hear anything. Therefore it is necessary to control your voice. Take a deep breath before you start talking. This helps you control your voice.

6. The Right Timing

What would it be if two or three actors talk at the same time? The show would be chaotic. For that reason, you need to know when to talk and when to listen. Avoid talking when your boss or colleagues are talking. Wait until your turn comes. Consequently they will also listen to you when you talk.
