As you said, the future development depends on the following links:
1, your post technical ability must be excellent, you must do a good job of specialization and convince the operators on duty;
2. In the work contact with the shift supervisor, other specialized workers and department directors, we must be a low-key person and do things in a low-key manner (wait for more than three years of specialized workers, and then do things in a high-profile manner) to avoid making enemies;
3. Regularly report to the company's chief engineer or plant-level leaders in charge of production.
4. You should have a certain interpersonal foundation or connections, or you have connections.
5. There must be achievements in the work, especially in energy saving or safety, quality control, technical transformation and so on. , saving costs for the company, etc. And pass on the results approved by the leaders.
To do the above, I think you can still be a department director and a factory-level leader.
Of course, both full-time workers and long-term supervisors have the opportunity to be department assistants and supervisors, but under the same conditions, leaders prefer long-term supervisors. Why? It is to establish a seemingly benign cycle of the company's development and attach importance to the phenomenon of production personnel, so as to give more operators confidence and motivation, so that they can better ensure safe production and economic operation.
But in fact, in the minds of leaders, who will be the director does not necessarily depend on these. There is also your potential opponent. You must be careful not to offend others or speak ill of others behind their backs. China's society is an interpersonal society. When everyone's technical level is similar, it depends on who will be a man.
I've seen people who worked as a deputy right after graduation, full-time after half a year, and director and deputy chief engineer after job-hopping; I have also met a newly graduated deputy post, a long post six months later, and a director one year later. The former is an individual who strives to be a man, while the latter is a father-in-law and a factory-level leader. I've also met people who haven't moved for ten years. I have also met people who have been professionals all their lives, and I have even met people who have been factory leaders. Soldiers are unpredictable, and water is unpredictable. Everything depends on people! ! !
I hope it helps you. If you have any questions, please ask.
