How to convey their views to management

If you can not hear the heads and senior colleagues are deaf to the requests and comments, the reason may be that you are wrong to convey to them my opinion. Layfhaker tells how and when it is appropriate to insert your comments in dialogue with the management.

When your opinion they want to hear

Brilliant ideas shine when they are relevant. If your advice / comments / opinions really expect not to remain silent and not to hide behind the backs of colleagues. The phrase "I do not know, I have no opinion on this matter" in general have to forget forever.

What to do

If the meeting with the authorities attention abruptly switches to you and the boss asked to speak on this occasion, take the word. Clearly and precisely say what you think on a particular issue. Suggest my own to resolve the situation. Even if you do not listen to you, but at least they know that you do not just sit their place, but ill for the company and has its own perspective on its development.

It would be good to prepare in advance for such moments and to stock up on a couple of ideas in case you ask for advice, not to be trapped.

You do not ask, but you have something to say

There are times when you ready, seemingly ingenious plan, but about it no one wants to hear. For example, you know how to boost sales, but the boss all the time delays this discussion for later. Or you notice a problem in the department, but your ideas are not interesting.

What to do

If the situation allows, try on their own to take the a responsibilityAnd then demonstrate real results, to talk with the leadership was more objective.

A few days, operate in their scheme. If the result is an impressive, share it with your boss to speak not hypothetical, and operate with real data.

There is one thing: such experiments should be done only when you are sure the result and when this initiative will not lead to the opposite effect. If the initiative is not welcome in your company, think before you act.

You are silent, and I am silent

Sometimes it happens that like and you have an opinion on a specific account, and against the authorities do not listen, but you are silent, and the head is not interested in your ideas. They still remain unclaimed. Boss thinks you are an employee of a lack of initiative, and you lose interest in the work. Not the most pleasant scenario.

What to do

Act! Create a document with your thoughts at the expense of improving the work of the department, to increase sales, promote their own ideas and feel free to submit his superiors. So you get several advantages in comparison with other colleagues:

• Chef understands that you have a point of view and you are ready to defend it.
• As you will see a bold and self-confident person.
• You will show that you know how to analyze the information and to find useful solutions for business.

Do not be afraid to speak out, even when other colleagues do not, even if you are new to the company, even if you're scared. The initiative is not punishable when it brings results.
