WEDNESDAY, 17 SEPTEMBER – Working with the correct working attitude, by doing something carefully and completely, is able to guarantee the organisational success in achieving the organisation mission, vision and objective.
Head of Chancellery Department, No’man Hj. Ahmad, said during a talk in the programme called ‘Bicara Ilmu’ held at the UMS Mosque, discussing about the Staff Roles in Organisation.
Human resource or the manpower is the key player in an organisation. If every worker has done their tasks with full understanding and achieving the objective of their organisation, every planned operation will be able to be carried out smoothly and effectively.
“The main thing for employees is to form themselves with the correct intention in their work; to work as deeds for the sake of Allah.”
“Working as a deed should be followed with the proper attitude, before doing their tasks. They need to correct themselves, and applying integrity as part of their attitude,” he said.
Even though there is a hierarchy in an organisation, making gap between the levels of positions, this is not a hindrance to be creative and innovative employees.”
“Every staff should voice out their opinion towards the organisation’s benefits. Employees are also encouraged to increase their knowledge and skills, in order to be more efficient and competitive in their job,” he added. -MA-
