• Take ownership of your job and feel motivated
• Your employability and survival within the organisation depends on your ability to take ownership of what you are doing
• Even if you are employed by someone else, you are as much the owner of the coy as your employer is. When you take ownership, you internalise your job and become energised in what you do.
• If keen to stay on and feel you can be an asset to your organisation, change your paradigm from the traditional "I work for the organisation" to "The organisation is working for me". Should see yourself as the owner, regardless of what role you play in the workplace.
