Recently, I spoke to a group of administrative professionals at a networking event. Did you know that one study by a leading consulting firm showed that building personal credibility was the second-most-identified behavior of leaders? That’s the focus of this blog today – credibility. If you have a minute, see how you rate yourself in answering these questions:
•Do you genuinely try to be honest?
•Do you walk the talk?
•Do you stand by your values?
•Do you have an open mind?
•Do you keep commitments?
•Do you listen to others?
•Do you strive to continually learn?
If you answered no to any of the questions, maybe it’s time for some reflection and new direction. In these difficult economic times, credibility can be the one character trait that makes you stand out from all the other employees or candidates. It can help you land a promotion or a new job. What are your thoughts about credibility?
