Why it's important to respect your organization?

I joined my first company in 2013, I was new to this corporate world and knew nothing about it. When you are in a new environment you majorly rely on the information given by people who are already there. So I heard a lot of negative gossip about how unfair it is, how people don't get promoted etc. So I started working, gave it my best, and was awarded EE (Exceeding Excellence) 6 months in a row, and just like that, I was up for my promotion in the upcoming quarter.

So All that gossip I heard earlier was nonsense? Maybe or maybe not. But I learned that I should not entertain such nuances in the future. Of course, there are ups and downs everywhere you go. But you should not let such things reflect badly on your organization as a whole. Try to understand, any organization is a huge family and it is impossible to control each and every person, and his/her behavior towards you or your performance. Most of the time it is just your manager, not the company. I have always been a man who respects everything I receive, be it money, appreciation, or respect and I intend to give it back to where it came from. Gratitude should be part of your life. Be thankful for what you have and of course if you feel you are not appreciated where you are you can always go and switch, nobody's stopping you. I see people cribbing about the company and are part of it for a decade, trust me that makes you look bad. 

 Here are some key reasons why it's essential to respect your organization:

It helps foster a positive work culture. When you respect your organization, you show that you value the work that you do, the people you work with, and the goals that the organization is striving to achieve. This can create a positive and supportive work culture where everyone is working together towards common goals.

It shows that you're a team player. Respecting your organization means being willing to put the needs of the team above your own. It means being willing to collaborate and support your colleagues, even if it means going out of your way to help them. When you show that you're a team player, you become a valuable asset to the organization.

It helps build trust and credibility. When you respect your organization, you show that you're reliable and trustworthy. This can help build strong working relationships with your colleagues, as well as with clients and partners. It can also help enhance your professional reputation and increase your credibility within the organization.

It can lead to career growth and advancement. Respecting your organization can open up opportunities for growth and progress within the company. When you show that you're dedicated to the organization and its goals, you may be more likely to be considered for promotions and other career advancement opportunities.

In conclusion, respecting your organization is important for creating a positive work culture, building trust and credibility, and opening up opportunities for growth and advancement. By showing respect for the organization, you can set a good example for others to follow and become a valuable asset to the company.
