It is crucial to ask yourself if the Managing App strategies and tools can be implemented in your current context. Consider factors such as organizational culture, available resources and your ability to adapt to different situations. Reflecting on these aspects will help you plan better and adapt your practices effectively.

• Assess your skills: Make sure you have the necessary competencies to implement the Managing App tools and seek training if necessary.
• Set clear goals: Define specific objectives that you can achieve using the strategies learned.

What new things have you discovered about your manager?

Discovering new aspects about your manager can significantly change the work dynamic. Ask yourself if you now have a different perspective on their priorities, communication style and expectations. This understanding can open up opportunities to improve communication and strengthen the professional relationship.

• Observe their priorities: Learn to recognize your manager's goals and expectations to better align yourself with their objectives.
• Tailor your communication: Adjust your communication style according to your manager's preferences for more effective interaction.
• Seek feedback: Ask how you can improve and what expectations he/she has about your performance.

Are you adapting your communication style to your work context?

Adaptability is key to professional success. Find the best way to communicate with your team and your manager, and see how this affects your job performance. Every environment has its own language and unwritten rules.

Some tips to improve your communication are:

• Know your audience: Find out your team's communication preferences and adjust your style accordingly.
• Be clear and direct: Avoid ambiguity and make sure your messages are understandable and direct.
• Keep learning: Participate in communication workshops or training sessions to refine your skills.

Experiences, even those that do not provide immediate feedback, can be a valuable source of information. Reflect on silences and nonverbal reactions. These also communicate important messages about your work environment. Maintain a proactive mindset, willing to learn and grow. Remember, constant self-evaluation and an attitude of continuous learning are the keys to moving forward in your exciting career adventure. Keep going, the results will come!
