Thanks for the video! I made a summary for myself:
1. Write bullet points, don't write in long texts
2. Make sure you name the attachments properly
3. Make sure people can reach you
4. Make sure you send the meeting invite with all the necessary information included
5. Send agenda before the meetings
Thanks for summarizing!! :) Best, Heinrich
Thanks for the summary, that literally saved me 12.5 minutes of my life. 👍🏻
i realize it's kinda randomly asking but does anybody know of a good place to watch newly released tv shows online?
@Rohan Brady i watch on FlixZone. Just google for it =)
@Kade Keenan yea, I've been watching on flixzone for years myself :D
Takeaways:
1. Use bullet points when writing emails
2. Name all attachments and files appropriately
3. Be available to others who reach out. If you are busy, tell them and follow up by suggesting another time
4. Always include relevant information for meetings, including the exact address, time, and agenda. Send calendar invites yourself
Thanks for the summary! :) Best, Heinrich
Another thing I always do with my meeting invites is include a 2 minute notification in the invite. Helps everyone remember the meeting and gives them a moment to transition from whatever they were doing before the meeting.
I also like it for myself too, because I feel that if I'm hosting a meeting, I should be the first person to join the meeting.
Awesome. In a nutshell and not because Heinrich hasn't explained everything: Don't waste people's time.
For the emails: I also liked the other advice: "Walk, talk, write."
Yes fully agree, thanks! Best, Heinrich
Additional point on the agendas: also get into the habit of providing a pre-read to meetings whenever possible. This can really aid with making sure that a meeting uses everybody’s time well and that ppl are on the same page
Good point, thanks for sharing! Best, H
your sound is soooo much lower than any other youtube video. Please adjust the sound on your next video
Hi, thanks for the Feedback! Appreciate that. Yes, already noticed. Will improve in the upcoming videos! Best, Heinrich
If it’s not too much of an imposition @FirmLearning, I could go in and boost the audio and send the updated mp4 your way?
Thanks for your swift feed back, it did not deter me from viewing other videos. There's a good number of learning points in them! So be encouraged your not merely taking a walk since you have followers - that's leadership! I follow you on LinkedIn now. So all the best in your endeavors👊
Hi Mark, thank you for your kind comment! Appreciate it. All the best to you as well!! Cheers, Heinrich
Great content! FInally a channel that speaks about those important topics. Thanks Heinrich!
Thanks, appreciate that!
Thank You!
Thank you a lot! I was looking for something like that
Thanks, appreciate the feedback! Best, Heinrich
Great tips Heinrich! Started using these tips ASAP and got some amazing feedback :) Thank you so much!
Super happy to hear that - thank you Dona! :) Best, Heinrich
I should share your videos and tips with my colleagues,who are sometimes so unprofessional in their approach to certain situations ! Thank you for the valuable tips and informative content
Fully agree. The work place would be much better if everybody would follow these tips ;) Thanks for watching!! Best, Heinrich
I started implementing your presentation templates, title, approach and flow of thoughts. Not sure how others will c it I myself think that I have elevated myself one level up on this, thanks to you
Super happy to hear this! Thanks for your comment! Best, Heinrich
Is it a factor in remote working environment? How does it change in pandemic?
Hygiene factor - Negligible
Long email - The email tends to get shorter, chat gets longer though
Attachment - Replaced by shared cloud folder drive URL
Be available - This one becomes more important in corona and post corona world
Calendar invite - This one too becomes more important in corona and post corona world
Agenda for meeting - No significant change
Hi Eka, thanks for sharing! Yes agree, the current situation will have an impact! Best, H
Love this
Thanks for watching Yacob!!
Thank you so much for the tips
Hi Erica, great to hear they were helpful. All the best to you! - Heinrich
Great tips! Thanks for sharing with us.
Thank you, great to hear the video is helpful :) Best, Heinrich
Great video, many thanks.
Thank you much appreciated :) Best, Heinrich
Good points, that second one is the biggest pet peeve of mine. Also on the same note, when people loop you in on an email chain, and they leave the Subject as 'RE:RE:FW:RE: Subject' - Unprofessional!
Yes agree, thanks for sharing! Best, Heinrich
I'd rather be grateful that they thought of getting you in the loop. ;-)
Set your print areas in Excel must be number 6!
Yes, definitely also an important one Christian! Best, Heinrich
Great content - more career advice please!
One new video on communication skills for young professionals will go online later today! :) Best! Heinrich
The content is very helpful, but unfortunately the sound is far too quiet. Could you make sure that you don't have to turn the volume control all the way up with your next video? Please rate it as constructive criticism, thank you very much. By the way, I took your udemy course on "CEO Level Slides ...", which I can only recommend. As is so often the case, the little things make all the difference. Best regards
Hi Thomas, thanks appreciate it! Well noted, had a problem with the audio settings in my older videos, this should be fixed in all my newer videos! Agree that little things can make a big difference :) Best! Heinrich
@@FirmLearning Great, you react almost in real time. Nice to know that the channel is really being actively operated. Keep it up ... :)
😂 Really got me when you said "This Tony guy... '1.44", as I am called Tony .... ha ha ha, thanks for sharing this content.
lol - thanks for watching!
Better background would help but nice video! :D
Agree! It is one of my earlier videos...! Best, Heinrich
Although I agree these are nice tips, the irony is that the more senior the colleague, the less they do any of this stuff.
Thanks for sharing, unfortunately made some similar experiences ;) Best, H
@@FirmLearning Your videos are great, keep up the great work
Hi, I find it more common that the availability for phone calls is likely applicable to senior mgmt only. 😂. They can call anyone anytime and expect you answer but not available to anyone lower than them….usually. Is it professional in your opinion?
In emails, should we format our lists as bulleted lists or just short paragraphs? How about numbered lists?
Hi Edward, in my humble opinion, bullet point format is always preferred whenever it makes sense. Best, H
Hi, ich finde deinen Kanal sehr gut, weiter so!
Bitte versuch nur die Tonqualität um einiges zu verbessern, nicht sehr gut im Vergleich zum Content, schade.
Hi Thomas, danke dir für das Feedback! Ja, das hier ist eins meiner ersten Videos, da hatte ich noch ein Problem mit dem Ton. Auf allen neueren Videos sollte das behoben sein :) LG, Heinrich
@@FirmLearning Vielen Dank für den Hinweis Heinrich, weiterhin viel Erfolg!
I'm interested in what you have to say, but your sound is so low!
Hi Mark, thanks for the feedback! Indeed, this was one of my earlier videos where I still had an issue with the sound. Should be fixed in all newer videos! :) Best! Heinrich
good video but volume is a bit too low
Thanks Luis agree! This was indeed one of the first videos I released on the channel :)
Do you think if a person made too many hygiene mistakes and the perseption of him has gotten bad, can it be reverable? And if yes, how?
Hi, yes do think it is possible but can of course take some time. Probably no other way than to consistently deliver on your responsibilities in the right way!
in the end of the day, we're all toilets. it is up to YOU what kind of toilet you wanna be..
thank u Heinrich for urging us to be clean toilets
;) Thanks for watching! Best, H
I always barely hear youuuuuuu.
Your voice is way small even if I turn up the volume to the maximum.
Hi, yes the audio settings were not correct for my first videos, apologies for that. It should be fixed for all the newer videos! Best, Heinrich
@@icinycity Thanks for the feedback! This was one of my first videos, indeed hope that my newer ones are better, also regarding delivery :) Best! Heinrich
Do you also have girls in your work environment or only guys?;)
Hi Stela, I use guys in a gender-neutral way (guys refers to both male and female). Of course, there are many amazing women I worked with throughout my career!! :) Best, Heinrich
Can barely hear you.
sorry this is an older video, sound did not work properly at that time! Best, H
