Listen to what you are told & shown as your new position may have similarities to your old job, but will also have many new things involved, hopefully, your past experience & history will also bring new ideas to your new job. If it is your old job, with a new boss coming in, do what you can to help your new boss acclimate to & learn about his or her new position. Good to let them know who they can trust & depend on, as well as who the lying backstabbing untouchables are that they should not get on the wrong side of as well.
Get to know the boss and then anticipate their needs. Write a short summary every couple of weeks of what you've worked on. (they won't really know at first). If they're new to the company, introduce them to people in other departments, and give them the low down on who does what. Help them get up to speed faster. This will cement you in their mind as someone who they can count on.
Your value has nothing to do with how they value you.
I work on the weekend to cover for for all the time wasted during the work week.
Be productive and take initiative.
Prove your worth. It shows them that you are capable of the job -- and then some.
Give it up. They already want to get rid of you bring in their team. Keep indispensable instutional knowledge to yourself. You will be valued when shit hits the fan.
Produce outcomes; competence.
You show your worth by doing all that is required of your job, PLUS, all that you see that needs to be done but is not being done by someone else.
hit my sales numbers and make sure my team memebers enjoy working with me.
I have no answer for this one. I have been rewarded for giving my best and ignored for it. Every boss I have had has known I can be counted on, but not every boss has shown me appreciation for this.
