You may find it difficult to connect with other employees or colleague, let’s say, in an office space in the Philippines, when you are having a bad morning, or if you don’t feel any encouragement in your work environment.
Here are some remarkable habits that you can do during meetings to impress everyone at work:
Find Inner Peace
A lot of stress can stick to you, and if you don’t find inner peace within yourself, you will take that negative vibe with you when you interact with other employees in your office space in Cebu during your meetings.
It is known that if a person has inner peace or can deal with stress properly, they are more likely to become efficient, effective, and more productive. They can also extend their positive vibe to their colleague or team members, which can be helpful not only during meetings but to the whole organization as well.
So how do you deal with stress, or find your inner peace exactly? Above all, when attending a meeting, think of it as an opportunity for the whole team to connect rather that thinking of it as an event that will take place for everyone to have an argument. When something comes up, make sure that you take the time to analyze and evaluate the situation first before speaking. Remember, once you open your mouth and say things you really don’t mean, you can’t take it back anymore. So, you must be really careful.
Clear Your Mind
It is normal for an individual to feel anxious or worried before a meeting. But there are things you can do to help you overcome this situation.
Breathe and relax. Clear your mind and make sure you are refreshed before entering a meeting.
For you to be able to clear your mind, you may reflect or maybe jot down the things that make you nervous or anxious. After this, you may analyze and think of a solution on you can overcome it.
Be Confident
Every individual has the ability to be confident.
For you to be confident, you can start with the simple things like working on your posture, which is the first impression you give to people. It is simple but it is important to keep that in mind.
Accept Criticism
This one can be very difficult. Not everyone can accept criticism. It is most likely that an individual will react negatively when they hear people’s criticism or feedback regarding them. It’s true, but we must understand that a person can only grow when they learn from their mistakes. When people give you negative feedback, it does not mean that you are a failure. It only means that there’s still room for improvement.
Communicate Clearly
Sharing your thoughts or ideas can be tough if you do not communicate it clearly. It is common during meetings that we hear a lot of people talking and shouting at the same time. And we all know that this is not effective. If you want to be heard, you must speak up and have everyone listen to you and understand you. Keep a calm and solid voice. This way you can communicate your ideas clearly.
