What you need to analyse is, are you are team player? Do you love to coordinate and work with other people? And if not, would you work upon gaining the required qualities to be a team player? Because in an office, it’s all about people working together and producing results. Let’s take a look at the below tips at how you can be a good team player, especially if this is your first job or internship.
1. Helping Attitude:
There will be times when you might get good at something, but your colleagues could face issues. Those are the moments when you can help them with the same. This would not only increase your knowledge, it will also inculcate a sense of mentorship in yourself along with gratitude from your team.
2. Curiosity to Learn:
You must strive to keep learning new things regularly. As an intern, this is the time when you can develop your skills and gain as much knowledge as you can. Even if you are being trained for a product, grasp its nuances, how it works, how can you contribute to the development, what more you require becoming better at it. This attitude will allow your trainer to take you seriously and your employee graph will get better by time.
3. Excellent Communication:
That’s a no-brainer. It’s a must for everyone these days. Without clear communication you cannot work with your team members efficiently. Hence, you must work on those skills to have the required impact.
4. Solution Oriented:
No one likes a problem raiser, everyone wants solution. When you work with people to get solutions to issues, your credibility automatically increases. Even as a trainee, your managers and peers will look up to you for resolving things. Gaining this skill comes from strong willingness to be team oriented, that you are not working alone, that there are people depending on you for results.
5. Accountability:
Once you enter a team, everyone relies on you for some job or other. You must understand this point and try to make yourself accountable for the things you are taking care of. Updating about their progress as required works wonders. Make sure you ask for guidance wherever necessary instead of leaving things if you are unable to do them.
6. Collaboration and Coordination:
Team players have to coordinate a lot with team members, and they are pretty good at it. So, this is one attribute you need to gain for positive reviews and better productivity. If you cannot collaborate within team members, you need to work on that because absence of proper coordination might result in negative outcomes.
To sum up, it takes a lot of work to be a good member of a team. Don't worry yourself to death about a few mistakes. Instead, use that time and energy to get better at what you do and to learn from your mistakes. Being a good team player is good for you, your co-workers, and the business as a whole.
