Learn how to help you in your organization change. Suggest solutions, participate in volunteers, and act proactively! What kind of results would you like to see? How can you help? Talk about the change in a positive, solution-oriented approach for people throughout the organization. Become change agent. For example, there may be processes or rules that prevent you from working effectively. Look closely at each step of an existing process or rule. Perhaps some aspects do not have a purpose just because they are always done. If you need to demonstrate the benefits of approving the proposed solution and implementing the solution to people affecting the change, please fix these problems. In this way, you can control what you can control without resigning, and I can not change processes or rules. By concentrating on what you can control, you can automatically feel more control and begin to chain reaction

Can you imagine a star athlete trying to hide his weakness in front of their coach? You say to your personal trainer, "When I ask you how to help you get better training, I will be very healthy, I will control it" Can you do it? of course not.

When you asked "How can I help you?", You did not provide specific ideas or suggestions so that you can provide more help. Instead, you rely on your employees to do some (and subtle) work to understand how you need to improve your leader. I am looking forward to an employee who tells you that you should do better without asking for any idea that you are lazy. Can you imagine talking to your boss what she needs to do different practices? "When you say" How can I help you? "You are doing this. You ask to dig a hole for exposure ... an employee can not tell if you are really ready. It is difficult whenever you tell the truth that you are in power. As a leader, we can not underestimate the dynamics of power between employees and employers. There is no incentive to criticize or tell anything that employees may be denied by their superiors. As a result, "How can I help you?"
