Just got off the conference call and I feel like I really brought a lot to the table. Questions directed toward me resembled "do you understand what we're saying Robert?" and instead of responding "yes" I responded "I was thinking the same thing and yes that seems to be the best way to go about doing it after looking at different approaches." Another question was thrown my way "Robert can you do that for us?" which again I didn't give the one word response, because I wanted to show what a power player I am I said "Should be pretty easy to show some different scenarios, just let me know what objective you are trying to reach and I can handle the details." Were people put off by the length of my responses? Most definitely yes. Did it make the nearly 50 minute conference call that could have been about ten minutes slightly longer? Yup. But did I make it known that I was alive and competent on my side of the phone? Yes. Really making power moves at the work place and handling my business I'd say.
interesting u bring this up -- today on the elevator i heard two (mexican) guys talking about some guy called danny who recently got promoted. and they both noted that danny put in a lot of facetime, made himself visible, and spoke up in meetings even when he wasnt really bringing anything to the table....you are danny!
ReplyDelete@ FW: that guy got a promotion so he is not concerned with anything else other than the more money he has in his pockets now, than what he had before.
