Working in my parent’s company during vacations and whenever an opportunity arises, helping them in administering the business has helped me in realizing these attributes.
One Tuesday morning, during one of my vacations, my parents made me in charge of the main shop where my mom works since they had other commitments. As a student, I was very excited, for the gesture showed the trust my parents had in me, despite being just a student. They dropped me off at the store after breakfast. I found the store already opened by the other employees who work with us.
My perception of ‘being the boss- the just give orders and things will happen perception’ (Cappelli and Novelli 60).
That experience has been so important to me since I learnt that the one relates to others at his or her work place irrespective of the position, he or she occupies in the institution matters a lot. In addition, it determines the progress and success of the company/institution. Being a self-motivated, hardworking, ambitious, and quick learning person without great interpersonal skills is not effective because one needs to have good interpersonal skills to relate with others effectively, as it matters a lot.
