Today if you ask anyone "Who is the richest person in the world?", you will get "Bill Gates" as the quick answer. You may get some names like "Warren Buffet", "Carlos Slim", "Laxmi Mittal", "Ambani Bros." etc, if you ask them to list down. (We are proud of the Indians who entered this list)
But if you ask to name the person who is getting highest salary, you will not get the answer (Try it).
Because there are thousands of such people and no one can make out.
As per the reports, during 1900 to 2000, the highest paid employee was Charles M. Schwab (1862-1939).
He was working for one of the largest iron & steel production company United States Steel Corp.
Here comes an interesting fact about him. Once 'someone' asked his boss Andrew Carnegie (You can search for this man in wikipedia) about the payment of Mr Schwab. He replied "Schwab is not an expert in machinery. He knows how to deal with the feelings of alive human beings, the workers, instead with the dead machines. And that is the supreme knowledge that he has got".
The 'someone' didn't give up. He went directly to Mr Schwab and requested to share the secrets of his success. Five secrets put forward by the highest paid employee are these:
1. If a person working with you does a mistake, notify the mistake only to him not to everyone. And be aware that your work is not finding the mistakes of your colleagues.
2. If a person working with you does good work, appreciate it. Let everyone know and let everyone appreciate.
3. How much ever you are experienced, you can not accomplish all the works. Work in a team, divide the tasks, succeed. Then don't forget to celebrate the success.
4. You must always be enthusiastic. Only then people around you get enthusiasm. And the destination for this road is 'success'.
5. Always have pleasant smile on your face, be humorous, friendly to everyone. Things go easy.
Aren't these great??
These points hold good forever, though they are old.
Lets adapt, we may be the highest paid employees of tomorrow! If not at least 'SUCCESS' will reside in our pocket!!
