Conwells Heights Railway Station is located in the northern suburbs of Philadelphia, approximately 24 kilometers from the city center. The parking lot at the station is very large. On weekdays, hundreds of commuters park their cars there, and then take a 20-minute train to the central business district, which is called the downtown station by residents of Philadelphia.
Because the parking lot is still a long way from the platform of the station, the local rail transit operator, the Southeastern Philadelphia Transportation Authority, opened a shuttle bus between the parking lot and the station. Tedious work. From time to time, they wait for the train to arrive, take passengers from the station to the parking lot, or take passengers from the parking lot to the station; then, they drive back to wait for the next train. Most drivers lean on the driver's seat helplessly, seeming to be willing to pay any price to get rid of this tedious job. Curtis Palin is an exception.
No matter from the mental state or the behavior, you can't see that he has the slightest annoyance of this work. Whenever a passenger boarded the Batu he drove, he would kindly say with a hoarse voice: "Hello, man! How are you today?" If an elderly woman got on the bus, Curtis would Say, "Hello, girl!" What's even more amazing than his bright smile and full-bodied voice is his extraordinary memory: Curtis can clearly remember which passenger drove which car. The other drivers are following a predetermined route-parked in Zone A, Zone B, Zone C, or a certain parking zone. Curtis will send each passenger to where he parked. When the tired passengers got out of the car, he would say goodbye again: "I wish you a good night tonight, man!" Or, "Good Friday, sir. I wish you a happy weekend!" I fell in love with Curtis, and often brought him small gifts when he returned from vacation, and sometimes someone brought him nuts chocolate cakes and cakes.
Curtis Palin was first and foremost a professional, and secondly a Pakistani driver. Because of his professionalism, he sees each passenger as his customer, not a group of commuters who do not care about Fang Bianyuan and who do not know his first name. The passengers also responded and gave back to Curtis's enthusiasm. Instead of treating him as an invisible person performing a certain service function, they regarded him as a passionate person. People like Palin not only made their ordinary jobs extraordinary, but also changed those who accepted his service. Curtis Palin is a real professional.
The Merriam-Webster Dictionary (commonly known as "Webster's Dictionary") interprets the term "profession" as "a profession that requires professional knowledge and usually requires a long, intensive academic preparation" . This dictionary interprets the word "professional" as "participating in an activity or entering a field for profit or earning a living, which is usually used as an amateur activity by others."
Although this is the standard definition, my career has taught me that the word "professional" means different things to different people. As a member of the workplace, you are likely to have your own opinions about who can be called a "professional". Maybe according to the definition of "Webster's Dictionary", you think that anyone who makes money by working can be called professional, whether he is a plumber, a hedge fund manager or a writer. Maybe your definition is more stringent, and you think that only those who can excel in their own work are eligible to be called "professional"-if he is a plumber, he must set up his own company; if he is a hedge fund manager, he must Acquire a large number of customers, manage their investments and earn millions of dollars: if he is a writer, he has to publish articles in major newspapers and magazines in his country.
Regarding the code of conduct for professionals, we all have our own set of standardsdressing follows certain rules, never spreads gossip, and does nt talk to colleagues about personal matters (unless they affect their work). Even in today's modern and relatively relaxed work environment, I often hear people associate compliance with the above code of conduct with whether they are professionals.
However, after being a professional for almost 35 years, I found that in the new era of economic globalization, everyone's behavior, whether positive or negative, can have a global impact, so , We must redefine what a real professional should look like.
The word "professional" has been around for a long time, and its etymology appears earlier, dating back to the Latin word "profession" that appeared from 1175 to 1225. The word originally meant an oath made when he officially became a clergyman.
The reason for the origin of this word is that in this era of our lives, too many qualified engineers, doctors, nurses, lawyers, journalists, athletes, and accountants believe that becoming a professional is only It means that I have a means of earning a living, with which I can survive, acquire and pursue richer material enjoyment, and finally retire smoothly and spend my old age. For such people, to be a professional is to obtain a diploma, rely on it to find a job, and then seek a good job, or a fat, and then continue to raise and promote in advance.
However, in my opinion, as a professional, this is not enough, and it is even more so today. To be worthy of this title, it is not enough to be qualified for a job. He must be able to bear the responsibilities of his job and behavior, and at the same time understand the job or how these behaviors will affect the world. Others. Although each country, industry, and company has its own unique code of conduct, there is no way to ensure that everyone's behavior is "professional." Today, more than ever, we need to revisit the traditional meaning of the word "professional" and pledge to pledge that we will do everything we can to use our knowledge, skills, and attitudes to change the lives of others and regulate our own behavior.
This doesn't just apply to "thought leaders" or men and women in suits. Whether you are a software engineer, a beautician, an intellectual property lawyer or a public relations officer, you have to do this. Some of you have been in an industry for many years (such as doctors, lawyers, and journalists) and may have been acting in accordance with long established traditions. But for others, maybe your occupation didn't exist a hundred years ago. Every ten years, many new professions emerge from the world. On the one hand, professionals in various fields need to become experts in the industry and understand every subtlety of it; on the other hand, they need to be able to collaborate with professionals in other industries. But more importantly, they need to be able to work across disciplines.
The professional field has undergone tremendous changes, but so far no system has been established to train people to become real professionals. No matter how much education and training you receive, you won't get a universal guide that tells you how to deal with every problem, how to communicate with different people, and how to respond to changes. As a result, many people have professional qualifications and are technically qualified for professional work, but they cannot become real professionals, and most of us have always been confused as to why this happens.
Today's professionals face another challengeour work is global. Even people who do not travel frequently need to communicate with people far away from the other side of the world. Moreover, there is no doubt that we are all highly dependent on international trade, which means that we are easily affected by an event that occurs or originates overseas.
Take Yishani Mohapatla as an example. She studies chemistry and specializes in non-edible flavors. She completed her university studies in Mumbai, India, but now works as an flavor development manager for International Spice & Fragrances, based in Utrecht, The Netherlands. She is part of a global team with a mission to help company customers Procter & Gamble develop new fragrances for detergents.
There is also Leslie Davis, a registered financial analyst, and I ask him about international tax issues. Davis lives in California, USA, but his clients span the globe. Clients come to him as soon as they encounter bilateral tax difficulties in doing business with the United States.
In Bangalore, India, my dentist, Vivek Nandawa, found that because more and more people now come to work in Bangalore, Silicon Valley, India, more and more foreigners come from all over the world. Recently, he also received some patients from the Middle East. These people chose to come to India for medical services because the cost is lower and they can also travel here.
I have been doing professional work for the past 35 years. And for 15 years, I was also an entrepreneur. During this time, I received customers from all over the world. Even though my company is headquartered in Bangalore, I wake up every morning with phone calls from Shanghai, London, California, and other remote places. I almost always travel on business and live abroad. I have raised venture capital from investors around the world, and co-founded Mindtree in 1999 with others. We employ employees from many different countries and have offices in the United States, Europe, Asia and Australia. Our 9,000 employees develop software applications for a number of companies, from John Wiley Publishing in the United States to Arcelor Mittal Steel in Europe, with customers in all walks of life around the world. The technology we develop and create is used by companies from the Netherlands to South Korea. Because we work in the software industry, I regularly deal with professionals from all walks of life: technicians, end users in the finance, marketing, and human resources departments, and sometimes doctors, lawyers, public relations experts, and Real estate agent.
Similarly, as a person who travels frequently and lives many times abroad, I am also a customer of various professional services, and I am assisted by various industry experts, from doctors to chiropractors, to airline agents, car repair personnel And then to the taxi driver-thanks to their help, I was able to solve some problems that I couldn't solve on my own, and achieved what I couldn't achieve by myself. As long as a person can meet our needs in a courteous, courteous, timely and effective manner, and provide a full range of cost-effective services, he is a professional. This book is about them, because most people naturally think of people like them when they think of the word "professional." This book is written not only for those with six-figure annual salaries, but also for those receiving the minimum wage. In short, as long as you recognize the importance of maintaining professionalism, this book is for you.
It can be seen from the above that the question now before us is, what exactly is "professional"? My purpose in writing this book is to answer this question.
I believe that fundamentally, a real professional needs the following three basic qualities: being able to complete work independently without supervision; being able to ensure the completion of work or tasks; and finally, being able to adhere to the principle of integrity at all times.
However, in addition to these basic requirements, there are other requirements. Real professionals also need to be self-aware, be brave to admit mistakes, seek help, and resolutely avoid actions that violate their values or goals. He was able to recognize his limited ability to speak up. He considers his body, soul, and mind, and can prioritize and maximize value as much as possible.
Real professionals have a long-term perspective. He knew that the profession was not limited to a specific job or a specific institution, but extended to his long forty-year career. When making decisions, he always remembers that what he does today may affect himself in the future.
Real professionals are advancing with the times. He warmly welcomes new challenges brought by each stage of his career and actively adapts to changes in life, company, industry or culture. Not only does he excel in business, but he is also able to deal with the management and leadership responsibilities that come with his career.
Real professionals can handle emergencies with ease. As we all know, we live in a world where accidents happen at any time. From natural disasters to terrorist attacks, everything is possible. Real professionals don't see these accidents as disasters, but as opportunities to open up another world.
In summary, it is imperative for true professionals to understand economic globalization. He is culturally aware and able to maintain contact and interaction with people around the world.
The last thing to clarify is: I am not the so-called management leader, I am a practitioner. My main business is not writing books or giving lectures in business school, but running my own software company. Therefore, I am not writing inscrutable theories derived from mysterious research. I am an observer, an activist . Therefore, my book is neither complex nor sophisticated, it is a simple book. The book describes actual situations, ideas and concepts, supplemented by examples from everyday life to explain. I never intended to make it an academic feast, I just wanted to provide an operation manual for everyone who wants to pursue professional excellence today and for decades to come. As long as some chapters of it can make you think, realize, find the secret of your own success, and teach it to others, then I think you have not wasted time reading this book. Real professionals must have a sense of inheritance and leave their core knowledge to future generations. Today's big trees will eventually fall, but our heritage will ensure that new sprouts will sprout on the land we fell, and one day will grow into taller towering trees.
