Attributes of Great Employees

1. Great employees understand servanthood and subjection

2. Great employees understand the heart of their master
...obedient to their own masters...

Great employees and team members understand that no two 'masters' are the same. These people recognise that they are not on team to do a job, but to bring to fulfillment the dream of 'their own master'. They understand the unique likes and dreams of their master and shape their work accordingly.

Like Joseph, great employees understand that when interpreting dreams, there is no 'one size fits all' solution.

3. Great employees create a good atmosphere
...to be well pleasing...

Some people carry a bad atmosphere. Crowded House were right when they sung 'everywhere you go, you always take the weather with you'! Great employees manage their feelings to ensure that they create and maintain a good atmosphere for other team members; this is particularly important for leaders; the King sets the culture of the Kingdom.

4. Great employees understand that all things matter
...to be well pleasing in all things...

But all of these have a huge impact on a person's overal perception of the whole organisation.

Great employees understand that organisations become exceptional because they do all things well. These people intuitively the right way to handle 'all things'.
