The goals of seeking a promotion are nothing more than earning a higher salary, expanding one’s scope of management, and gaining a higher status within the team. The most crucial factor affecting promotion is people; those who wish to get promoted should learn how to build long-term relationships with others. To do this, you must first learn: 1: How to gossip. Apart from the teacher-student relationship, whether it is a father-son relationship, friendship, a superior-subordinate relationship, or a client relationship, it is through casual conversation that mutual affectionate friendships can be established. 2: Listen attentively to gossip. The only way to prove on the spot that you have friends, subordinates, and clients in mind is whether you listen attentively to what they are talking about. 3: Learn *several professional playing methods. If you don’t know several professional ways of playing, it’s impossible to engage in professional communication with others. 4: Learn to invite friends out for a meal without any reason. Inviting friends to dinner in your free time is the most relaxed way of interacting with others, and it also facilitates emotional connection; it creates favorable opportunities for success. 5: Learn* how to spend money properly. If you don’t know how to spend money, how can you understand what your clients who want to make money are thinking, what your superiors prefer, and what your subordinates care most about. 6: Learn* how to organize events. Everyone needs friends to keep them company, but not everyone organizes friend gatherings. :Handshake – please, Kawayu, go ahead and add more on Takami’s points... Thank you! :handshake
Another important point is to learn how to improve yourself, both in terms of your professional skills and knowledge; only in this way will leaders take you more seriously.
Show off your skills at critical moments, but that requires an opportunity. While individual skills are important, learning to handle interpersonal relationships is even more crucial. Our company used to have a workshop supervisor who knew nothing about production, yet still held a senior position and managed things well; of course, this was an isolated case. In today’s chemical industry, there is no shortage of technical experts or management professionals; what’s lacking are those with interdisciplinary skills.
Listening to you speak, I have learned a great deal!
