Enthusiasm and Attitude
Enthusiasm can mean the difference in not just getting a
job, but succeeding in a job and even advancing in your career. A positive and enthusiastic attitude is a critical component of workplace success. There are many ways in which an individual might demonstrate enthusiasm in the workplace. Once hired into a position, an enthusiastic employee will typically show up on time, show interest in his or her job, and demonstrate a willingness to listen, learn, and try new things. In customer service settings, an enthusiastic employee will approach customers proactively and offer assistance or seek out tasks and projects when there is downtime. This positive attitude helps employees go above and beyond to get along with co-workers and managers – even difficult ones – and respond to constructive criticism with maturity and willingness to improve. Overall, an employee with enthusiasm comes across as someone who wants to be at work and who is willing to do what it takes to get the job done. |
