Three differences between work and study

1

The biggest difference between work and school (with the exception of some PhD students) is that most of the problems at work are: 開性性、不確定性 (The problems in school are almost always closed and definitive), and a good understanding of this may help you better understand some of the confusion at work:

Most of the known conditions for the problems encountered in learning are complete, and the language descriptions are accurate, but the prerequisites for many problems in the workplace need to be explored by yourself, and the descriptions of many problems need to be further clarified by yourself.

The completeness of the questions in learning is also reflected in the evaluation of people, when learning, teachers often talk about the barrel principle, and it is often the shortest board that determines your height, but it is often the long board of ability that plays a key role in the development of the workplace, not the short board (as long as the short board does not become a defect).

The second biggest difference between work and study is that at work, your work is not just your own business.will directly affect other people: Users, upstream and downstreamcooperateof colleagues, and even the company's big business. The vast majority of your behaviour in school is usually only directly affected by yourself, and may have an impact on others from a broader perspective, but more indirectly.

Workplace people must have a sense of responsibility, and reliability is the basic quality of an excellent workplace person The final deliverable at work is the outcome, not the process. Of course, we can't ignore the process, in general, a good process can guarantee a good result.

The third major difference between work and study is that in school, teachers have the obligation to answer students' questions, and in the workplace Growth requires self-drive.Everyone is taking a salary to do things, everyone has their own responsibilities, although a lot of corporate culture says that everyone should be able to complement each other, but cruelly speaking, everyone can do their part after doing their part, it is okay not to help others, even you target Mentor.

So, don't take the help you deserve when you receive it, be grateful, and try to cause as little trouble as possible. However, from another perspective, encourage you to help others, because the essence of leadership is to influence, and helping others is one of the best ways to build and exert influence.

There are three kinds of problems that must be learned to be identified at work

In specific work, timely and accurately identify three different types of problems and choose the corresponding solutions, which will greatly improve your work efficiency, to give three examples:

Problem A :987654578+0=?

Problem B Azerbaijan: What is the capital of Azerbaijan?

Problem C : What is a coworker's mother's last name?

The reader can consider the differences between the three.

Problem A : It is within your ability, and you can solve it by taking the time and working hard to do it yourself: most of the various homework in school belongs to this kind of problem. In the work, as your ability (dismantling the problem + solving the problem) improves, there will be more and more such problems.

Problems B and C cannot be solved by individual efforts, and both need to seek help in a timely manner, but there is also a distinction between these two types of problems.

Problem B : You will know the answer at a glance, do your homework before asking for help from others, and don't ask "lazy questions". There are many such problems at work, it is not what you have the ability to solve at the moment, you have to study, to make up for classes, no one in your work is obliged to help you make up for classes, my first tutor at Didi gave me the first lesson is this article, "How To Ask Questions The Smart Way", which has benefited me so far.

Problem C : Ask this colleague directly, this kind of problem is almost impossible to solve by your own make-up class, and the efficiency will be very, very low, to find the source of the problem and solve it efficiently. There are a lot of this kind of questions in the work of analysts, one of the major categories is that the business puts forward an analysis requirement, if you have not fully communicated before, or lack relevant background, don't guess, don't ask other people, go directly to the person who put forward the demand/problem to understand, don't be afraid to ask stupid questions, you must be able to break the sand pot to ask the end, the clearer you understand the problem, and you can solve the problem later to avoid detours.

The boundaries of the latter two types of questions are difficult to distinguish, especially when you are just starting out in the industry, there is a small method: ask others if they have done their homework before asking others, and summarize and then review after asking others, whether this question really belongs to category B, if not, where did you not do it, you can do better next time.
