Doesn’t always apply. Sometimes you need to over promise just to get the project.

Hey Kaleigh, I disagree with your premise that one always exceeds expectations. That being said, I will agree and say it all comes down to communication. In a workplace environment, one must be able to effectively communicate. Interesting that you mentioned asking for help. We just had a great webinar program from Jodi Glickman of Great on the Job discussing strategies on how to successfully ask for help on a project. Thanks for the comment!

I think this sounds good in theory, because you’re essentially always exceeding your expectations, but what if, in some situations, you have trouble delivering because you’re not as strong and therefore have to set a really low bar? It’s definitely important to be able to communicate; as much as people don’t like asking for help, it’s the only, only way to learn. Got to start somewhere. Nobody expects you to know everything right off the bat.
