very interesting!

 

wanna do up some kind of guard for the signal lights to protect include of drop/fall. and also a hidden metal box for tools.

 

Good suggestion..maybe we should work it work...Maybe strap the tools kits at the side of the crash bar...so when go touring can minimise the space, not need to put it the pannier or top box.

Yeah a soft kind of bag like fr Touratech then attached it to the crash bar...so as to speak take the impact on going down...There's a clip on the use on Long way Down...if its fr metal finish then it will dent? I got lotsa mod to do upon returning fr Trip as it is when u will think of stuff to hide other than inside the panniers.....:cheer: :cheer: btw ATwin...ur fan are great as it doesn't draw lotsa power...Only now for me to buy a proper waterproof switch...

Dondidie>> the fan is cheap, small one $3 & the big one $10...can get at sim lim tower. Switch i use with the light indicator one, so that it can remind me the manual fan still power on. MAybe we can discuss some kind of soft bag to store our tools kits ...it's lighter as compare to alum/metal type.

bro the bags that fixed at the crash bar is cool..but my fear is,what if hapened when we crash..with all the tools inside...the fairings might b smash..it defite the purpose of having a crashbar...jus my 2 cents bro...

 

 

e pic that Fuji post is kinda mess up a bit...a little too much...It should jus be one pcs attached jus like in Long way Down & on both side.. as discussed with Joe sometime back....e bag could act as a damper for crash and e crash bar will be cushion not totally gone..it will not defeat e sole purpose of a crashbar... Well after falling and going off rd..I hav some ideas for a Heavy tourer like Ours..and Another good way to put all tools is like in KTM's after Mkt design..cut out softFoam in size of the tools and store under e seat!!! Well more R&D to follow..Good topic to start on.....:cheers:

:cheeky: something nice to read....... not from me

 

came across this and think this is so very true.....to those 'smart' people who think they are so good and their boss is bad, and when their colleague are promoted because they' suck up' on the boss while they themselves are noble...

 

It would be safe to say that you would have probably entertained the question of how to get promoted even before you graduated or left school.

 

In my chats with juniors from my industry, I am often asked this question which I gladly answer. However, I sense they simply want short cuts to the next level. These experiences pushed me to pen these 9 obvious but often not practiced tips on how to get promoted.

 

Start internalizing these tips and make them part of your career plan. Before you know it, you would have moved up to the next level.

 

One main reason for people to ignore these obvious practices on how to get promoted is because they seem very long term. But they are not at all. All you need to do is to consistently DO them. I have broken them down to 3 main sections: Plan, Attitude and Action.

 

 

PLAN

1. Where Are You and Why Are You There?

 

How to get promoted? First you will need to have a reference point. Ask yourself, where are you now? And why are you there? Is there any key strength that has brought you where you are now that you can continue to leverage for the next promotion? Are there any weaknesses that you really need to correct beforethe next promotion is possible? These questions, while simple are strategic. It allows you to check your strengths and weaknesses. It forces you to access what has worked and what will work to get you promoted.

 

2. Where Do You Want To Be and How Do You Get There?

 

You obviously need to have an objective and a plan. Just saying that you want to get promoted is not enough. You need to be clear on your next position. Is it a promotion to a different department or a different branch? Write this down.

 

Now that you have written this down, how do you plan to get that promotion? Develop a plan for to achieve that objective. If you are lucky, you can even work this out with your immediate boss. Most bosses do not promise that promotion at such discussions but at the very least you get an idea of what are the expectations.

 

ATTITUDE

3. Put Pride, Passion and Belief In Everything You Do

 

People who get promoted are those that have a sense of pride in their work. And they take pride in their work. They are driven by genuine enthusiasm and desire to do their best no matter how small the job. They believe in themselves and they believe in the bigger goals of their unit or department and company. How to get promoted? Ask yourself; do you conduct yourself with pride, passion and belief?

 

 

4. Back it Up with Skills/Knowledge, Direction and Action

 

Having pride, passion and belief is only part of how to get promoted. It must be backed up skills and knowledge. That means having the necessary skills and knowledge to do a superb job. Having a direction is important to guide that energy generated by your passion. Otherwise, effort is wasted. Without action which is the actual completion of the task, all else is academic. You will be judged by what you do.

 

 

5. See Challenges As Opportunities

 

Another obvious tip on how to get promoted is to see challenges as opportunities. Very often I see young executives being thrown challenging assignments, which they choose to see as an additional chore. If you want to be promoted, look at challenges as opportunities to shine. Do not complain about hard work, how hard you worked or if your assignment is tougher than your colleagues’. Trust me, no one wants to know how hard you work. In everyone’s mind, their own work is the hardest.

 

ACTION

 

6. What Is Your Part?

 

Know your part and play your part. What is your role? Are you an implementer? Or are you a leader? Know exactly what you need to do in order for your unit to achieve its goals. Knowing your part means being a team player. No one can succeed without help from others. We all need the support of colleagues. When the team succeeds, you succeed too.

 

 

7. Do Your Best NOW

 

I consider this as one of the most important tip on how to get promoted. Do your best NOW. Today. This week’s tasks and projects. Do not bask in the glory of your previous work. That is gone. In all likelihood, no one else cares about it especially your bosses. Do not think too much about future projects that are not implemented yet. That is in the future. It is not here yet. Focus on DOING your best NOW. It determines how you are being judged. When you reflect too much on the past and think too much about the future, you forget to focus on the NOW.

 

 

8. Do More Than Necessary

 

If you want to know how to get promoted, do more than the necessary. That means volunteering for work and taking the initiative to make a job better. It also means not sitting around waiting for work to come to you. Bosses like people who can help them solve problems. Even if the problem is not yours, but if you feel you can be of help and have the expertise to solve it, then volunteer to help. You become the team’s competitive advantage when you do that. And bosses like people who give their unit an advantage over the others. Helping your team stay ahead is then helping you stay ahead too.

 

 

9. Do Work from The Next Level Up

 

If you continue doing work for your current position then you truly deserve your current position. People who know how to get promoted know that if you want the position next level up, you start doing some of those work from that level now. If you are a senior executive now, do some work that is only expected of an assistant manager (assuming that is the next level up). This allows you to demonstrate that you are capable of that position already.
