Come for the productivity, stay for the positivity! :) Even when your videos don't directly relate to my situation, I still find value in them, but to be honest the positive energy you put into every video is what keeps me watching!
"Come for the productivity, stay for the positivity" I LOVE THIS Adriana! Thanks for coming up with my future tagline 😂 And thank you again for the kind comment. I'll try to keep it up 😁
I really appreciate that you always cite articles and give original authors the proper credit instead of taking their key points as something you've come up with - something I've seen a lot of people do. And your additional insights are super helpful to build on those key points. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for the work you put into these videos. They have helped me tremendously at work and I've really stood out by implementing some of these best practices! A video on hosting productive meetings would be amazing. Thank you again
I just recently found your channel when I was searching for a synopsis on ‘The First 90 Days’. I subscribed and share your videos with colleagues. Your channel is invaluable. I appreciate the time you take, and even purchased some of your offerings. Thank you!😊
Hi Jeff, I wanted to Thankyou. One year ago I watched your video about job interview tips. At that time I was driving two and a half hours away from home for work and it wasn’t very productive or profitable, so I was recommended for a job in my home town and I used your interview tips and I just passed my one year anniversary. Now I’ll use this video to accelerate my career
Thanks for making my day with your comment Katherine! I always love to hear success stories like this! I have no doubt your career will go amazingly well 😁
Hi Jeff, as someone who recently joined to the corporate world, I fully agree with most of this information. I also had to learn a few of these tips in a very harsh way. Definitely know who does what would be tip #1 also in my opinion. Not only because of what you've mentioned in the video but also because when you first start a new job you are pretty much setting the basis of how you work. Therefore, if you seem to be a few steps back from the beginning, it's very likely that you will be tagged as so. Thanks for your content, I learn a lot from your videos. I wish I'd had access to your videos a while ago.
THANKS Jeff!! This is going to be significantly helpful as I am currently starting out my career by creating a new position for myself. That really has to “make things happen”.
This Jeff Su youtube feature of 5 Thigns After Starting A New Job are both honest and beneficial info. I confess that I have learned some of the examples referenced the far from easy way, the the advice to be aware and remember any actions are previously taken are among the multiple reminders from this video that I intend to take with me into my new job/place of employment for both present and future reference.
The last part makes so much sense....because of manager and not because of the Firm...also u had some great points on stake holder part...i am facing this situation and have made a note of so much from here...
As someone still very new to the corporate world, some of these tips I’m already learning the hard way while others are new to me and really insightful! I’ll be checking that article out, thanks Jeff :D By the way, congrats on 200k subs! I’m really happy to see your channel get the recognition and traction it deserves 😊
That's a great point Mark! You might be half joking but if you're new and you're hosting a meeting where others don't know you, bringing coffee/food is a great way to buy some goodwill!
Hi Jeff! Have been applying your advice and strategies shared in the previous videos for a while. And I LOVE how PRACTICAL they are. I am wondering if it's possible for you to share your insights about the following two topics (which you probably have been planning) in the following videos: 1) your transitioning journey from a consultant to Product/Project Manager: what's the mindset difference between the two? 2) the workflow of project management & technical skills for someone who wanna succeed in project management! Thank you so much in advance!
Practical is my middle name! Glad you enjoyed the videos Coco! 1. I'm actually a Product Marketing Manager haha (different vs. Product Manager). But I might do a video on the transition someday! 2. I already have an event management video up that basically answers your question 😁
Way to many meeting could have been an email, I often refuses to attend meetings, with no info in the invite, I dealt with it, in my precious company a lot, and management wasn't really fund of me turning down meetings, but when they understood why, they started to invest a few minutes, in putting information about the meetings in the invitations. My time can be used way better to attend a meeting called info, or lets talk.
At my workplace, we have a "chain of command", but it's useless because of favoritism. You can complain all you want, but if the person you're complaining to doesn't see the benefit for THEM to act on it, then they won't. If you don't go to them you're given the excuse of "you didn't say anything", and if you go to them and they don't do anything and then you go higher, then you're again accused of "not following the chain of command". I know who the boss, who does what, and who I can go to, but none of that really matters where I work.
@@JeffSu I'm not sure what I said was funny. This is a pretty serious situation. Help me out here. I'm in a leadership role, my colleagues and I are at our wit's end, most of the time it seems pointless to try and direct anyone because like you said we don't really have any authority, and those under us tend to know that.
@@atlantic_love I'm also not really joking because I think what you're describing happens in every single workplace in the world. I've certainly seen my fair share. And in my opinion, the best way to go about this is figure out what the other people want and provide them with value to influence them. Maybe you don't like them, but if you want to stay at the workplace, you gotta deal with it. Or you can just leave. It sounds brutal but for me, I work with what I'm given, not what I wish were true
@@JeffSuOh I love what I do, but don't like where I work, unfortunately there really are very few employers around me for the kind of work I do. At my age of 51 it's getting "late" to change, if you know what I mean :) You are correct.
Hi Jeff, ☺️ have you been asked to be a mentor for someone? Would you be open to sharing any tips on how to be a mentor (& vice versa, how to ask someone to be one for you)? Love your communication style & All your guidance, content & humor❣️
I’m starting a new job on Monday I realized I lost my social security card they said it will arrive in 2 weeks. Do you think I can use a birth certificate and Id instead?
Hey Jeff, where do you get the icons and figures in your videos? Do you have someone that makes those specifically for your videos? Or are you getting them from a stock website?
Please make a video about functioning in a workplace where nobody operates like this 😂 I work in for the state and it is so inefficient and unproductive, these methods are great but come off like you’re doing too much
Maybe it's time to find a better workplace 😉. Just kidding but in my opinion Jasmine holding myself to a higher standard than everyone else isn't such a bad thing 😁
@@JeffSu I love what I do but know that we could make a greater impact if we didn’t spend hours hand jamming things that can be automated 🥴 but I agree, strive for better! Lol
