Don’t be afraid to ask for help when you need it

38 minutes

Reason 1: The Fear of being rejected or being judged

Reason 2: Some people want to help others, and some people don't mind helping others.

Reason 3: You can get so much further by asking for help

Reason 4: Seeking help in black communities

Reason 5: It means you are stronger if you can ask for help

Make a Smart Request

When asking for help at work, you need to be detailed about what you need. Make sure you ask for help that is:

Specific – don’t leave room for interpretation, or you may not get the help you expect

Meaningful – explain why you need help

Action-oriented – what the task or goal is

Real – don’t make up a request for help if it isn’t necessary‌

Time-bound – set a deadline
