5 Things You Can Do To Be Heard At Work

We live in a connected world where everybody's trying to stand out and make their voice heard. This can make it feel like you are just a drop in an ocean. So how can you possibly get noticed? If you want to learn and grow and have your voice get heard, here are five things you can do: 1. Speak up in meetings. Be confident that you were invited there for a reason to contribute something and not just to be a body. 2. Join a committee or an employee resource group. Find something that matches your talents and interests and go all in. 3. Participate in your company's internal collaboration platforms. Pretty much every organization uses some sort of technology for employees to communicate and collaborate. Take advantage of those platforms. 4. Ask questions. If you struggle to share your own ideas, start by asking questions of others. 5. Offer a solution. Stop pointing out what’s wrong and offer a solution. Don't be afraid to make your voice heard. It will help you develop and be more successful in your career and in life. --------------------- This episode is sponsored by Namely.
