🥊 Some new hires have a secret ability that help them excel in the workplace; and according to Zara Zhang, that ability is to Make Things Happen

The sooner new hires and fresh grads are able to grasp this ability to “make things happen,” the faster their career growth

There are 5 goals young professionals (especially new grads) should aim to achieve in their corporate jobs to get ahead in the workplace: Know Who Does What, Know How to Ask for Help, Know When to Escalate, Know How to Host a Meeting that Doesn’t Suck, and Know Your Boss

Professionals who master these 5 areas are usually high performers who get recognized at work without having to “play workplace politics”
