🛑 Why do the most tired become forgotten?

🛑 "Good worker..." Why do the most tired become forgotten?

When success belongs to the "people in front of the mic," but the mistake belongs to the "people behind the house."

Have you ever noticed?

In every organization... there is usually a group of people who work harder than anyone else, friends.

* Get the end of almost every problem

* Supports virtually all teams

* And is like the "backbone" of many important projects.

They are the ones

* Stay until late.

* Coordinate all parties

* Take pressure from all directions

* And often the one who makes the work "survive" the day everything is about to break down

But the painful truth is,

When it's time to get credit or admiration,

Instead, this group of people are always "missing from the eyes of the organization."

🎤 the slide maker almost died... not face, but the person in front of the stage... got all the credit.

"This is a recurring picture of the working world in many organizations."

One person works almost everything behind the house.

Keep requirements

Solve the problem

Coordination

By work

Get the pressure.

And solve the situation until the project can go on.

But the other person... is the person who goes up to the conference room.

And when the project succeeds,

Applause, compliments, or even bonus / salary increases.

Well, it's always darting to the "mic front guy" first.

But if the project misses it,

Every finger will immediately start pointing back at the "support team."

So many people started to feel

"Doing well almost to death... fully just always

But when you fail, it's the first person to be blamed. "

And this is the beginning of quiet fatigue.

That many organizations have never seen.

🧠 The problem is not "people who speak well," but in organizations that only see "what is in front of the stage."

Actually, being a good presenter is not wrong.

The organization itself needs people who are good at communicating and reassuring.

But the problem is that many organizations are overestimating the value of people from what they see in the boardroom.

Who speaks well, looks confident, slippery presenter.

Often automatically interpreted as "brilliant."

While a lot of backyard workers

Not good at selling yourself

Not good at politics.

Don't like to compete for the spotlight

And choose to speak for yourself

The result is

The organization began to enter a very dangerous state.

"Real workers are exhausted.

But those who are good at image grow faster. "

📉 Invisible Work or the most important work... but often invisible.

In the working world, there are many jobs called Invisible Work, or jobs that "no one sees when they do, but everyone sees immediately when they disappear," such as

* Someone who coordinates until the team can move on.

* Someone who solves problems before things spread.

* People who help other teams work easier

* People who keep small details until the project doesn't break down, etc.

These works may not look very colorful.

No moment. Clap.

And not on a beautiful slide

But it's what makes the organization "really walk on."

A phenomenon called Collaborative Overload.

Who found that people who helped and supported others in the organization all the time

Often become the most cumulative stressed group.

Instead, recognition and minimal growth opportunities were given.

Because their work is seen as "just support," in fact, many times these people are the reason that many projects do not fall in the middle of the way.

🤝 "overly good" workers often become the hardest-used?

Adam Grant, author of the book Give and Take, explains interestingly that in organizations, there are usually three large groups of people:

* Giver - Someone who likes to help and support other people.

* Matcher - someone who keeps a give-and-take balance.

* Taker - People who aim to take advantage of themselves first

The problem is that in many organizations, "Taker" is easier to grow than "Giver."

Because Giver always

* Don't like taking credit

* Don't want trouble

* And often choose to carry on their work so that the team can go on.

In short, people like this may seem "easy to work."

But in the long run, they are the group most vulnerable to Burnout.

And even scarier, when organizations let these people be used hard but not seen long enough, what they lose is not just manpower, but "the people who make them walk every day."

🎯 The job of a good executive... not just to listen to a good presenter, but to figure out who the "real worker" is.

Many executives accidentally evaluate people from

* The one who speaks the best

* The one who can answer the fastest

* Or the person who looks the most confident in the boardroom

But in the real world,

People who make organizations walk

Probably not always the noisiest person.

So the leader's job is not just to listen to beautiful presentations, but to have a sharp enough eye to see through these slides.

* Who is the one who actually carries the job?

* Who is the one who solves the problem?

* Who is it that makes other teams easier to work with?

* And who is the one who makes the organization "survive" the day when everything is in turmoil?

Because if the executive evaluates the work from just what's at the front of the stage, the organization will start creating a dangerous culture, a culture that makes

* The talented are starting to burn out

* Real workers start to deceive

* And people who are good at image grow faster than real contributions.

🌱 A strong organization... must see "invisible work."

"Real good organization."

Won't let success go to someone who's "good at talking" alone.

But it creates a system that sees the value of

* Support work

* Interlocking work

* Solution work

* And the effort behind every success

Because in the end,

Every organization may have someone who is not difficult to speak well.

But someone who is ready to "carry the job, carry the team and carry the pressure" without demanding the spotlight all the time.

Is a much rarer resource.

And if the organization keeps these people overlooked, one day the organization will be left with good presenters, but no one will make real work anymore.

✨ The people that organizations should not forget the most... are often not the best speakers.

In the modern working world,

The noisiest one.

It may not always be the people who make the most impact.

Sometimes the most important people in the organization

Could be someone who's not in front of the stage.

Not a big position.

And not the one who speaks the best in the boardroom.

But the person who keeps doing all the work "walking" the day others start to take it down.

Because in the end

A really sustainable organization.

Not an organization with only good presenters

But is that organization

"See the value of people who make organizations walk even if their work is not under the lights."
