I am going to share my life experience so that someone
can learn from me and help me out. Hope you all like it too.
Amazon is an American multinational corporation that
sells various products such as consumer electronics, clothing, books, video
games, toys etc. It was founded in 1996 by Jeff Bezos (CEO until his death) and
Andy Jassy as a response to the stiff competition in online marketplace. The
headquarter of Amazon is in Seattle Washington, D.C..
As a college student I wanted to make some extra cash or
spend time at school. So I started looking for job in different places around
me and made several contacts with employers. As soon as I joined the company
after joining there was no any form of benefits like health insurance. It was
all good for two days then my phone battery died suddenly because they had one
more customer call. But there were also ads and promotions that could add up to
your income. Fortunately, it went on to me. So I went back to campus and joined
another company which let me use my personal email account. The salary was much
less compared to Amazon but it was enough to live on for myself.
I have worked there for almost 4 months and finally the
time came. Now I am trying to get my first promotion, because it is very
important for working in this company.
After getting promoted few people from Amazon asked me
about what I did and what are my skills which they don't know much about. My
answer was "I think I have 2 good skills. I have great communication skill.
There are many issues we confront in our workplace where our boss keeps giving
poor feedback and response this makes us feel unwanted." So I told them
"this skill can be used at the place you want. Its not difficult to
convince people who are thinking bad".
This particular skill is applicable only for Amazon. You
can say that I am using the skill to improve my communication skills. You can
do it in two different ways. One way is to prepare a presentation and show it
to others, and second way is to make a speech on your own.
The last part when I gave my speech was full focus on
using good grammar and punctuation and making sure people understood me. By
doing these things people were impressed because now they understand their task
is very important. Then people understood that my ability is worth it. People
said they will give a recommendation to a person because If you have skill
which could be useful. At least that's how it was for four months.
Then in September I got the notification of being
promoted to Associate Manager. It was a huge for me. Someone named Chris was
here who has been promoted with me. Before my interview I checked if he was
still a new recruit for Amazon since he was hired there. When I saw him in
interview I tried hard to impress him and explained my reasons why I picked
Amazon. That time it seemed everyone in the office was paying attention to me
as well. Some of them gave me advice and tried to show that I am better than
people who have a degree. I took the advice and made my statement. He asked me
to come to his company and we talked and it was pretty interesting as I didn't
really have anything to say to him except that I liked his style of
communication. I just told him I was going to join Amazon with confidence and
leave everything behind. We met up and talked about the topic, and talked and
shared experiences and opinions about other companies.
When he was done talking, I asked him about his current
job. He replied that he was working somewhere else. When I asked him about that
he told me that he wasn't happy there because his sales guy was the worst at
meeting his potential clients. I was shocked and shocked. A salesman cannot
even say how many times he should have gone to customers. And he doesn't know
everything. This is something that I will talk later on.
He has been working as sales person for 1 week and I am
talking with him again. His whole boss has given him the same feedback for 3
times. First thing is, he is always complaining about his attitude. The next
person who is standing next to me is saying I'm not good at having direct eye
contact and my personality. If that kind of language is allowed in a sales
person, I want to apply that type of behaviour in a manager as well who is in
close contact with customers. This would definitely not end well. So there's no
scope to work with him.
So now I’m worried if the boss will keep saying “it's not
difficult to attract people who are thinking bad” or he is still in denial
about his feelings. Even he had asked me about it many times and told me that I
had some good skill at communicating. This conversation is one more chance to
prove it. All I need is a little more convincing technique.
After some days we were talking and now he is really enthusiastic
in my capabilities. I told him that I believe I have a natural ability to speak
because I am very confident in it. In addition, I like to contact and I love to
elucidate things. What I need is more passion and confidence to complete his
task. After telling him I said that I need to work on my public speaking
skills. Now I am concentrating on expanding these abilities.
After some weeks of study we are going to take our final
exam and then it would be my decision whether to go for promotion or not. He
seems to like me a lot now, but now he is more open to listening to my perspectives.
I think that this is a sign that I could be a better leader, and maybe if I
have the right attitude, it could be that type of environment and employees
will respect me.
Now it’s his turn to ask me about my skills and what kind
of tasks I may have to manage in the future. Maybe to discuss with him more. We
are both friends and we have a clear understanding of each other. We are
friends of course, but we have a lot in common. So I don't want to be the boss
and he needs a good leader who has the same characteristics. It can be a result
that he does not think of himself as a manager but thinks of himself as someone
who helps someone to accomplish his goals more efficiently. This might be an
advantage for the company for long- So term success and growth.
I have learned how to prepare speeches on my own. And I
think I will continue learning to become smarter in my public speaking potential.
I think my public speaking capacities are much wanted in business. I believe I
have a very good future ahead of me.
