Does this sound f<strong>am</strong>iliar to you?
Where is<br />
my colleague?<br />
Were there<br />
times you<br />
looked across<br />
your desk and<br />
felt<br />
frustrated<br />
that your<br />
colleague<br />
perpetually<br />
c<strong>am</strong>e in late<br />
for work?
Where are<br />
you?<br />
How often have<br />
you wasted<br />
time waiting<br />
for colleagues<br />
who showed up<br />
late for<br />
meetings,<br />
workshops and<br />
discussions?<br />
WAiting...................
Have you ever carried the habit of tardiness to<br />
appointments with our external stakeholders, and<br />
it might even cost us a business opportunity or<br />
reputation as an organization?
Making a habit of being late<br />
is often a sign of patchy<br />
priorities and selfishness.<br />
Habitual lateness says,<br />
“My time is more valuable than<br />
yours.”
The Fact is...<br />
Being <strong>Late</strong> does not make you an important or special person.<br />
Whoever you are doesn’t reserve you the right to be late.<br />
Being <strong>Late</strong> once or twice may be unavoidable but being late<br />
perpetually makes you unreliable.<br />
Being <strong>Late</strong> says you do not respect the other person’s time,<br />
and you do not honour the commitment of time that you have made.<br />
Being <strong>Late</strong> affects others’ impression of you and adversely<br />
impacts work progress and productivities.
BE<br />
ON<br />
TIME?
Consistently being on time<br />
is the result of proper<br />
planning, self-discipline,<br />
and a respect for others.
“Your discipline of being punctual earns you a<br />
reputation of professionalism and reliability.”
“You eliminate<br />
stress from<br />
your life by<br />
removing the<br />
anxiety of<br />
being late”
“You are<br />
appreciated<br />
for being on<br />
time and You<br />
keep up with<br />
work progress<br />
and<br />
productivities.<br />
”
Adopt the discipline of punctuality.<br />
Be reliable. Be professional.<br />
Let us work together to inculcate a<br />
culture of discipline where we<br />
steadfastly keep our words and deliver<br />
on our promises.
