Translate Into:

by David Zinger

In the year 2008, every manager can stand to be more distinct.

Rajeesh Setty has been writing regular posts on how to distinguish yourself. He is getting close to 200 posts on this topic. Here are 5 recent links to Rajeesh Setty’s beyond distinction series:

#181 - Remember your friends when you don’t NEED them

If you don’t want to be treated by your friends like an ATM machine, you should not expect your friends to be treated like one too.

#182 - Structure yourself to get high-quality help requests

If you are constantly getting requests that are of “high value” to the stake holders, you are automatically getting a premium.

#183 - Increase your capacity to increase the capacity of others

Watch your “current capacity” in the marketplace to add capacity to other people. You can assess that based on the kind of requests for help that you are getting. Once you determine your current state, think about what you can do to take it to a whole new level in the next few years. If you stick to that plan with discipline, you can start seeing magic soon!

#184 - Invest your time to understand filters

In this fast moving world, people don’t have a lot of time to listen to things that are not relevant to them. So they put up filters to avoid more input. What may be gold for you may be junk for them. This may mean that they may not get to hear some “really good” ideas but that’s a price they are willing to pay for the convenience

#185 - Pay Attention to Your Zeroth Impression

Zeroth Impression is an assessment people can make of you without even talking to you.

Take the weekend to read the last 5 methods of distinguishing yourself and then break the code by not just reading about it but actually doing 1 small and significant thing from Rajeesh’s ideas.
