OVERCOMING A “BAD WORK CULTURE”

What should you do, as a mid-level executive, when you find yourself in a bad Work Culture?

If you find yourself in a bad work environment, understand that it’s possible to survive in it.

Most times, you only get to know about the culture when you are already in. Yes, it is the last thing you need, and you will always wish you didn’t have it…but hey, life throws all sorts at us!

Since you are in already, here’s what you can do.

Never forget to apply the trusted KTA. (Knowledge, Tactics and Action.)

1. Knowledge:

Be knowledgeable about the culture, the people and yourself. Know your strengths. Know what your capacities are. Equally, know what others can do as well. It will keep you well informed and well readied for whatever is coming.

2. Tactics:

Develop the strategy you would use in surviving in the firm. We equally teach this in TundeTalks. We help you develop a custom-made strategy that would help you survive and thrive in the environment.

3. Action:

You have to learn how to take immediate action. By taking action (not being passive), you make things happen. The worst thing you can do to yourself is to do nothing!

You want to be calm, composed and collected. In fact, in a funny kind of way, selfishness is required at this point.

You want to focus and ensure you are doing the very best for yourself. Make use of every available opportunity to become better.

Don’t let your environment hinder you. Develop a mindset of steel. By developing a mindset of steel (where what others do can’t affect you), you develop a reputation of being strong and efficient.

Understand that there can be no ‘bad work culture’ if you don’t allow any culture to stop your career growth. You want to stand out, you want to stand up for what you want and give it your best shot. And to do that, you have to rise above the culture and embrace the ‘me culture’ that will see you thrive and adapt.

Your time will definitely come.
