10 Behaviours Of Effective Employees with Rob Lambert

10 Behaviours Of Effective Employees

It's never been more important to remain relevant to the company you work for, the wider community and the job market.

The software industry is changing rapidly and traditional approaches to work are increasingly becoming irrelevant to many companies. In this changing market being relevant means you’ll have more opportunities for work, discover more meaningful work and have the right mindset to help companies solve tricky problems.

Leaders are demanding more relevant skills and experiences from their team - skills and experiences that can deal with the uncertainty and unknown challenges many companies now face.

To stay relevant to these changes you need to adopt an approach and mentality of continuous improvement and adaption to your context.

Employees of the future will need to know how to remain relevant by up-skilling, embracing change and being flexible to changing demands in the workplace.

In this talk Rob shares 10 Behaviours that he’s seen effective employees demonstrate. The 10 behaviours that will help you to remain relevant are:

01 - Being Visibly Passionate

02 - Being Aggressively Open-Minded

03 - Stepping Outside Their Job Role

04 - Becoming Company Smart

05 - Customer Focused

06 - Improving The Process

07 - Do What They Say They Will

08 - Communicate Effectively

09 - Self Learners

10 - Bravery

This is a fun and energetic talk and you’ll come away from it inspired to go forth and succeed.
