Course Description
Our habits at work impact how we perform. If we have good habits and practice them regularly, we can differentiate ourselves from others in relation to performance. Yet, if we have bad habits, it can hinder us more than we think. These lessons on Work Habits of High Performers will further explore the unsung attributes of high performers including storytelling, resiliency, perseverance, and grit.
In reviewing each one of these elements, you’ll be challenged to consider where you can take action that will make a difference for you and your performance. Plus, you’ll get some insights on time management and planning that will help you navigate your day in a more productive way, specifically by using a priority matrix. This tool can help you reconfigure how you tackle different tasks based on their importance. High performers know the difference between what needs to be done now versus what’s trivial.
We’ll also examine steps you can take to enhance your influence through sharing stories, using your abilities, and demonstrating your confidence. Additionally, we’ll explore how courage is another attribute of a high performer. While courage can look different to all of us, it involves finding ways to speak up, challenge others, and act in a way that benefits yourself and your peers.
Once you’ve completed these lessons, you’ll have new practices you can adopt that will amplify your performance in a way that will help you stand out while making a real difference to those you work with and lead.
