Führung: „Die Anerkennung für meine Arbeit bekommt jemand über mir“ – Das Leid der stillen Schaffer
Oft sind laute Mitarbeiter erfolgreich, auch weil sie Führungskräften eher auffallen. Doch meist halten die Stillen ein Unternehmen am Laufen. Wie es gelingt, Introvertierte nicht länger zu übersehen.
Sophie Schütze has been working in her job for over seven years, enduring her frustrations, which are almost always quiet. However, she now feels compelled to speak out. She discusses the lack of recognition, how it diminishes her enthusiasm for the work, and that she was once on the verge of being let go. Her day-to-day job at a government agency involves organizing, prioritizing, scheduling appointments, making phone calls, verifying the completeness of files, and arranging missing documents.
Schütze holds herself to the standard that her work must be of high quality and completed on time. She knows she does good work, but she is unwilling to champion that publicly. She states that her personal achievements, which she would prefer not to be associated with her name or her employer's, are seldom seen. "My work is utilized, but the credit for it goes to someone else," she says.
