Define Your Attitude At Your Job - Positive Attitude In The Workplace

The most important thing is to define what king of attitude you have where you work. Your coworkers will react to your attitude in a positive or negative way depending on what attitude you have. A positive attitude in the workplace will help you get raises and have a better career than having a negative attitude and being a grump at work.

If someones first impression of you is a negative one because you are lazy or grumpy then they will look at you as a negative person and who may not get along with them to well. Also having a negative outlook at your job can be a bad thing for you when it comes time to get a raise or time to lay someone off.

You can be a productive worker but if you do not have a positive attitude you can be looked at as someone who is lazy and does not do much for the company.

It is important to have a positive attitude because you want to like your work and what you do. You also want others around you to like you and like working with you. It is better for everyone at work to be positive and try to keep the atmosphere positive because you can benefit when it comes time to advance and you are looked upon as a positive influence over other people.

Just remember you want to have a positive attitude at work and want other to see you as a great asset to the company.

Attitude In The Workplace: How Your Work Attitude Can Define You

Your attitude in the workplace can be one of the most - if not the most - telling aspect of how others in the company look at you and feel about you as a coworker.

A first impression can be a hard thing to shake especially if it's a bad one. In other words, once you have gotten a workplace reputation as being lazy, a slacker, a whiner or other negative tag, it can be hard to get rid of.

Think of someone you've worked with who perhaps didn't work as hard as you expected them to and then think about how you felt about every time you had to work with them.

Attitude In The Workplace: How Your Work Attitude Can Define You

Perception is often reality and once people get an idea in their head about someone or something, it can be difficult to get them to think differently.

In my experience, your attitude in the workplace can sometimes define you more than the work you actually produce if your coworkers come to see you as someone who is reliable, competent, intelligent and someone that they can rely on.

One of the worst feelings can be to work with people who don't seem to care and don't appear to pull their own weight.

When I think about people I've worked with who I've seen in a positive light, they tend to be people who outwardly display a positive attitude in the workplace.

They tend to take the initiative and are reliable. They are someone that you look forward to working with. They don't complain or bad mouth their company or coworkers and basically get on with the job at hand. They don't wander around bothering other people because they aren't doing their own job.

Basically, they are people who would be missed if they left the company.

Having formerly worked for a company that regularly laid off staff, I can tell you that the people who were let go first were often those who were generally regarded as being staff who didn't display these positive traits and therefore weren't seen as being employees who needed to remain employed.

Attitude - The Power of Positive in the Workplace

o Did you know that 75% of employees are unhappy in their current job?
o Have you ever thought about how your attitude affects...
o Personality and work performance?
o Your employees, your customers, your relationships and your work environment?
o Workforce diversity, career success, and teamwork?
o Bottom-line results?

It all starts with attitude! A positive attitude is a priceless possession for personal fulfillment and career success. It is also an essential element for creating a positive workplace. It's what really matters... When we think about the basics elements of human relationships, we think primarily about the attitude we each bring to relationships, whether they are personal or professional in nature. What is the first thing you remember about someone you meet? Chances are it's their attitude!

Noted authors, Elwood Chapman and Wil McKnight say, "The attitude you bring with you everyday will significantly affect what you can see, what you can do, and how you feel about it."
We all know what a positive attitude sounds like, but how can we define it?
Simply stated, Chapman and McKnight describe it as the way you look at things mentally, your mental focus on the world. It's never static; it's always in flux - the result of an on-going process that's dynamic and sensitive to what's going on.

Attitude - The Power of Positive in the Workplace

Events, circumstances, and messages - both positive and negative - can affect your attitude. A positive attitude can be infectious! Let's face it... no one can be positive all of the time! What we do know is that a positive attitude makes problem solving easier and the more you expect from a situation, the more success you will achieve (The High Expectancy Success Theory).

Nowhere is your positive attitude more appreciated by others than when you are at work. How does a positive attitude about diversity impact the world of business? A major change had taken place in recent years in the workforce: the generational and cultural mix of employees has become more diversified. The performance standards are the same, but the workforce mix is different. Business is complex and competitive - with comparable resources, including people. People with a positive attitude are looking up and forward and are more likely to work to higher standards of quality, safety, and productivity - individually and as a team. Working near a person with a positive attitude is an energizing experience; he/she can change the tone and morale of the department and make others feel more upbeat. Sometimes the reason people lack a positive attitude is simply that they don't realize that they have a negative one!

A positive workplace is about the people and their positive outlook about their work and the organization that make the business thrive. The war for talent exists. Do we want to hire and retain people with positive or negative attitudes? The answer is obvious...Hire for attitude; the mechanics of the job can be taught. A company gets its edge from the attitude of its people - its leaders, its supervisors, front-line, back-office, entry-level and long-term employees. Employees want to feel valued and appreciated and will most likely be more engaged and stay with an organization, as a result. The higher the engagement levels, the more their attitude barometer rises. The higher the attitude barometer rises, the more business results improve.

Building and maintaining healthy, effective relationships in all directions - with people your work for, people you work with, and people who work for you - is a key to success. Business is a team sport, that's a given. Nothing contributes more to the process of building effective work relationships than a positive attitude. More business successes are won on attitude than technical achievement. A supervisor who demonstrates and knows how to build a positive attitude can lead a departmental workforce with only average experience and skills to achieve high productivity and successful performance. It's called "teamwork" and it happens often!

It's important to remember that we all have a choice - to be either positive or negative in any situation - and we make those choices every day. By keeping our power and being aware of our own attitude and choices, we can protect ourselves from external circumstances and people's negativity. Safeguard your attitude by solving personal conflicts quickly, taking the "high road" if someone behaves unreasonably or unfairly, insulating or distancing yourself from a person with whom you have a repeated conflict, focusing on the work and changing your traffic pattern to avoid people who pull your attitude down. Remember: Your attitude belongs to you and you alone!

Be open to new people, ideas and processes that create positive changes and improved bottom-line results. The business world consists of many people who are different from you. We're dependent on each other to achieve common goals. We need to understand and work effectively with all the labor resources. Opportunities for us to learn about other generations, backgrounds and cultures broaden our perspective with new ideas, talents, and points of view - it all affects bottom-line results!
A word of caution - don't go overboard by becoming a noisy cheerleader who spends more effort on projecting your attitude than nurturing it. Above all, don't try to be someone you are not! Be who you are... Project the real thing! Be authentic!

Life is a learning journey and all we can do is to strive to do our best each day.
A wise person once said, "If you place more emphasis on keeping a positive attitude than on making money, you'll be successful and the money will take care of itself."
Be good to yourself, enjoy the ride and make a Positive Impact on your career and workplace with a positive attitude!
