#223: Details Matter

The small details matter, and if you’re not meeting every single one, you could be creating a domino effect of issues for your company—and your career. Does your manager like reports printed in a very specific font and format? Understand, there is probably a reason for that. Does your company’s CEO have unusual morning rituals for all employees? Understand, there is a method to his or her madness. By paying attention to the smallest details and demands, you will prove to the higher-ups that they can trust you to take care of bigger responsibilities, too.
