Who Talks About Your Work?


You talking about your work is stronger than the work talking about it.  Why?

I see, the work speaks in terms of change it brings -- the feeling and emotion of other people.  In the change, people do not see you.  The people see themselves and it is not wrong.  People see how your work made them feel; not what you feel for giving that delivering work.

How you are feeling, what you are feeling and what is that you are expecting for doing the work -- you should make it explicit and talk about it.  I see this is fair ask, be it at home or at business.  

In business, you are paid for the work.  That is how the business looks at it.  Probably nothing more than that.  If not you, someone else will come in to do that work.  But, then what is the difference in you doing and someone else coming in and doing it?  How do you put this across and persuade with an influence?  This is, you talking about your work and presence.  This matters!

At the bottom, everything has calculations -- at home or at work.  One has to talk about her or his work, presence, and value.  This is a useful lesson for family members at home and peers in work place or community -- which is not spoken or taught in school and home.

It happens that, people talk about you and not about your work.  Then who will talk about your work?  You talk on your work.


To open you up to talk about your work, 

  1. To talk about your work, work and know your work
  2. There is a thin line between bragging and talking about your work
    • When I say talk, it is communicate -- communication
    • How do you communicate about you and your work?
  3. Talk about your work with,
    • Data that can be correlated with change and growth
      • Quantify it
        • Change and growth is well received when it is quantified
        • Illustrate this with data which is evident and interpretable
          • I said, evident and not logical; logical does not resonate always
    • Change, Impact, Consistency, Influence, Trust, Value
      • Highlight the trust and its consistency from your work
    • Reliability
    • Challenges remaining
    • Gains and loss
      • Talk about loss which are competent gain
    • Changed and unchanged
    • Continuity -- how and why
  4. Your gain and loss is not just your work, it is also what you talk about your work
  5. Know your ego when you talk about your work and others work
  6. Before talking about others work, know your work and talk about it
  7. In short, talking about others work is -- What you are not doing!

If you do not talk about your work, neither your work nor others talk about it.  Never!

Talk about your work!
