2.1 – Explain the purpose and benefits of setting high standards for own work.
By setting yourself high standards for your own work you are doing the best you can, by doing this you will get recognised in a positive way and proving yourself to your colleagues. High standards create positive challenges and show your achievements whilst improving yourself on a daily basis. By speaking with managers or colleagues about finished work and how to improve next time you are showing a willingness to improve and better yourself over time.
2.2 – Describe ways of setting high standards for own work.
I set high standards by making sure I do the best I can on each and every piece of work handed to me, this includes the work that I really dislike doing. I ask my manager for feedback to ensure that I have not missed anything and always try to answer any questions that may be asked before they are asked. Before I send out any completed work I do certain checks on it to ensure everything is in order, spelt correctly, formatted correctly etc. I am always 100% happy with any piece of work before I acknowledge it as complete, if not I will speak to my managed on how to improve it to that 100%.
2.3 – Describe ways of dealing with pressure arising from work tasks.
Some people can feel like they are drowning under the pressure of work, it’s easy to do when you have so many people asking for so many different things. To overcome this I try to keep a detailed plan of where I am with my work and future tasks so I can keep my manager updated easily. I try to focus on one thing at a time instead of trying to complete several different tasks at once and provide constant feedback to those around me to keep them in the loop of where the jobs are. By prioritising your tasks you are ensuring important ones aren’t forgotten about and missed, you should also know what your limits are whether those be personal limits or time
