如何得到導師更多的支持?

如果你是一名渴望成長的學員,如何能夠得到你的導師更多的支援呢?
要知道,導師非常忙碌,要關注的事項很多,他也沒有義務對你給予額外的關注。你如果期待獲得他對你付出他寶貝的時間,你自己有必要做些功課。例如:
  1. 關注他對什麼有興趣。將你的導師有興趣的內容,放在心上。如果你看到一篇他會有興趣的文章或是新聞,傳遞給他。(但是要注意,這個文章最好和你的工作有相關。或是,你先保存起來,自己做個筆記,找時間在你們談話時,說出你的意見,並將文章遞給他。)
  2. 提出你的見解,請求指點。理論上,你將比你的導師資淺。但是,如果你能夠對某些議題,提出自己的見解,請求指點,多數時候,你將獲得你的導師對你有進一步的關注。
  3. 表現超乎他的預期。最實在的,還是將他交付的工作,做出超乎他的期望值,讓他對你刮目相看。
  4. 表現你的感激。導師也是人,你馬屁一些,還是會讓他樂淘暈然的。逢人多宣揚你導師的觀點,一起出門幫忙提個包包,喝咖啡搶先埋單,多少還是有些作用的。
How to get more support from tutors?
If you are a student eager to grow up, how can you get more support from your mentor?
You know, the tutor is very busy, there are many things to pay attention to, and he has no obligation to give you extra attention. If you expect to get the time he gives you his baby, you need to do some homework yourself. For example:
  1. Pay attention to what he is interested in. Take your mentor's interests to heart. If you see an article or news that he will be interested in, pass it on to him. But be aware that this article is best related to your work. Or, you save it, take a note of it yourself, find time to say your opinion when you are talking, and hand it to him.)
  2. Put forward your opinions and ask for advice. In theory, you will be less qualified than your tutor. However, if you can offer your own opinions and ask for advice on certain issues, most of the time you will receive further attention from your mentor.
  3. Performance exceeded his expectations. The most practical thing is to make the work he delivers exceed his expectations and make him look up to you.
  4. Express your gratitude. The tutor is also a person. If you flatter him, he will still be delighted and dizzy. Publicize y

如何向老闆報告壞消息?

將項目搞砸了,怎麼辦?要如實向老闆報告嗎?我會不會受到責難?
沒有人喜歡這樣的局面。但是,與其遮掩,或是任它自然曝光,或是等老闆發現後再看著辦,無濟於事,並且可能會讓你蒙受更大的麻煩。
下次,當你將項目搞砸後,請及時而如實的向老闆報告,並採用下面的方式:
  1. 給予說明。將問題發生的原委,向老闆做概要的說明,並讓老闆知道因此而產生的不利影響範圍。
  2. 負責而積極的提出替代解決方案。提出一個具體可行的替代解決方案,並以積極負責的態度參與討論,直到找到具體可行的方案。不要一副事不關己,任其發展,將後果留給老闆的態度。
  3. 對發生的後果承擔責任。主動對自己造成的後果表示願意承擔責任,可以最大程度化解老闆與其他同事對你的猜忌,以及不正確的誤解。接受因為自己的錯誤而必須做的必要職務或角色調整,可以重新凝聚團隊力量,讓你在公司未來的發展,具有比較平穩的基礎。
How to report bad news to the boss?
I screwed up the project. What should I do? Do you want to report to your boss truthfully? Will I be blamed?
Nobody likes this situation. But it's no use hiding it, or letting it come out naturally, or waiting for the boss to find out, and it may cause you more trouble.
Next time, when you mess up the project, please report it to your boss promptly and truthfully, and adopt the following methods:
  1. Explain. Give the boss an overview of the origin of the problem and let him know the scope of the adverse impact.
  2. Actively and responsibly propose alternative solutions. Put forward a concrete and feasible alternative solution, and participate in the discussion with a positive and responsible attitude until a concrete and feasible solution is found. Don't leave it to yourself, let it develop and leave the consequences to the boss.
  3. Take responsibility for the consequences. Taking the initiative to show willingness to take responsibility for the consequences you have caused can minimize the suspicions and incorrect misunderstandings of your boss and other colleagues. Accepting the necessary job or role adjustment because of your own mistakes can re-unite the team strength and give you a more stable foundation for future development in the company.

以摘要作為求職履歷的開頭,贏得面試機會

當招聘企業的HR或是用人單位主管收到成堆的求職者寄來的履歷表時,通常他只用不到15秒的時間來決定是否要繼續閱讀下去,還是選擇其他履歷表。你如何抓住他對你的履歷表的注意,獲得約談面試的機會?
你可以在履歷表的開頭,就先做個簡短的自我介紹摘要,以最多以半頁或10行的長度文字說明你為何是這個應聘職位的最佳人選。
你可以先敘述你的專長或經歷如何適合這個應聘的職位,接著舉出1 – 2個相關的案例成就。接著,指出你曾經服務過相關領域的組織以及服務的年資。
關鍵在於表現出你比起其他應聘者有更優異的能力。要避免使用一些看來很泛泛的用詞,例如:“我是成果導向的人”、“我有很好的記錄”與“我重視團隊合作”等等,這些不能說明出什麼具體的內容,不能表現出你的獨特性。

Make a digest as the beginning of the resume and win the interview
When the company HR or employer supervisor received piles of job seekers resume, he usually takes less than 15 seconds to decide whether to continue to read, or choose other resume. How do you catch him on your resume, and decide to interview you?
You can make a brief self-introduction at the beginning of your resume and explain the reason why you are the best candidate for the job with a maximum length of half a page or 10 lines.
You can first describe how your expertise or experience fits into the job, then cite 1 - 2 related cases, and then point out the organization and the length of service you have served in the relevant field.
The key is to show you more than any other candidate has the ability required.  You should avoid the use of common sentences. Some of it seems quite common words, such as "I am a result oriented person" and "I have a very good record" and "I am cooperated" and so on. These can not explain what the specific content, and not support to show your uniqueness.

People usually resist change, especially when you are forced to change.
Many experts will tell you to be open to change. But a refusal to change can also translate into a powerful energy.
Instead of looking at change positively, embrace the fear of change and face your negative emotions.
Think about what will happen if it changes. Then, make your nightmares your advantage.
Because you think of all the bad things that happen when change comes, you plan to avoid them or reduce the damage.
So you can harness your negative imagination and build up your confidence and knowledge to overcome your worst nightmare. This ability allows you to take a step ahead of others and get out of the real dilemma.

提出加薪的幾個注意事項

向老闆提出加薪要求,通常會是敏感而緊張的。以下幾個注意事項可以協助你在提出加薪時比較順利,也會增加你贏得加薪的機會:
  1. 選擇恰當的時機。在你的工作狀態處於高峰時,是提出加薪的最佳時機。你最好在你的團隊漂亮地完成一個專案時提出加薪要求。你最好避免在你的老闆正在焦頭爛額時冒然地要求加薪。
  2. 做出計畫。你要知道你想要什麼數字,確認這個數字是實際可行的,找到一個案例來支援你所要求的數字。你可以用其他可以作為比較的最近的成功加薪案例來支持你的加薪要求。
  3. 要明確,並且要正面。聚焦在你最近達成的成功故事的正面價值,避免在向老闆提加薪時扯到其他不相干的事情。不要在你提加薪時惹出其他不必要的結果。
Several Notices for Raising Salary
It's usually sensitive and nervous to ask your boss for a raise. The following considerations can help you get a raise smoothly and increase your chances of winning it:
  1. Choose the right time. The best time to raise your salary is at the peak of your working life. You'd better ask for a raise when your team finishes a project beautifully. You'd better avoid asking for a raise when your boss is burning out.
  2. Make plans. You need to know what number you want, make sure it's practical, and find a case to support the number you want. You can use other recent successful salary increases that can be compared to support your request for a raise.
  3. Be clear and positive. Focus on the positive value of your recent success story and avoid other irrelevant issues when raising your boss's salary. Don't cause other unnecessary consequences when you raise your salary.

經營你的人脈網

能夠建立一個廣泛而具建設性的人脈網是一個成就。但是,你需要做的不僅如此你應該將它經營起來,讓你的人際關係對你產生效用。
以下作法能夠讓你維持你的人脈關係活躍:
  1. 分享資訊。如果你知道某人對某項特定主題感到興趣,你可以去找出一篇好文章來分享給他。
  2. 扮演中介橋樑。如果你知道在你的人脈中有兩個人對同一個主題都有興趣,但是他們以往并沒有聯繫,你可以將他們聯繫起來。
  3. 做人性的接觸。你可以對人說:“謝謝。”、“恭喜”,“我為你感到難過”,或是任何真誠而適當的問候。簡短而有人性的接觸是重要的。
Manage your network
It is an achievement to build a broad and constructive network. But you need to do more than that. You should run it so that your relationships work for you.
Here are some ways to keep your relationships active:
  1. Sharing information. If you know someone is interested in a particular topic, you can find a good article to share with him.
  2. Act as an intermediary bridge. If you know that there are two people in your network who are interested in the same topic, but they haven't been connected in the past, you can connect them.
  3. Make human contact. You can say, "Thank you." Congratulations, I feel sorry for you, or any sincere and appropriate greetings. Short and humane contact is important.

如何擺脫在老闆的陰影下?

在職場裡,讓老闆高興是很重要的。但是,有的時候作一名好的下屬會讓自己活在老闆的陰影下。如果你老是被視為是老闆團隊中的一員,而非獨立的個體,你可能不容易在組織中獲得提拔升級。 
試試以下的作法來站出你自己: 
  1. 找機會在別人面前表現。請求讓你有個機會能夠在公司其他高級主管前能夠報告你自己的工作。注意要說明哪些是你自己的創意與成就。
  2. 建立自己的人脈網。到其他同事的辦公室去,或是與同事們一起午餐或喝咖啡。讓他們知道你在做些什麼,以及你如何可以協助他們。要確保他們不在你老闆面前見到你。
  3. 安排你下一個職位。要明白自己預備下一個職位是什麼,並且拜託在公司裡的其他人幫你留意潛在的機會。
How to get rid of the shadow of the boss? -
In the workplace, it's important to make the boss happy. But sometimes being a good subordinate can make you live in the shadow of your boss. If you are always seen as a member of your boss's team rather than as an individual, you may not easily be promoted in the organization. -
Try the following to stand up for yourself:
  1. Find opportunities to act in front of others. Requests give you an opportunity to report your work before other senior executives in the company. Pay attention to what your own creativity and achievements are.
  2. Establish your own network. Go to the office of other colleagues or have lunch or coffee with them. Let them know what you are doing and how you can help them. Make sure they don't see you in front of your boss.
  3. Arrange your next position. Understand what your next position is, and ask others in the company to help you keep an eye on potential opportunities.

你需要什麼樣的導師?

導師可以幫助你改善你的工作與生活。但是,你不能期待有人會主動收你為徒。你必須主動去找到可以幫助你的人。

第一步,就是先了解什麼樣的導師最能夠符合你的需要?除了那種正式的師徒關係之外,你可以考慮以下的其他選擇:
  1. 可以相互指導者。這可能是任何人,你的同事,朋友,任何可以幫助你而你也可以幫助他的人。找到一名你可以向他學習,而你也有他需要的知識或技能的人。
  2. 外部導師。這是在企業組織之外,可以提供給你客觀意見的導師。當你需要一些在既有的人脈資源已經耗盡之時,你可能會需要一些新鮮的觀點。
  3. 虛擬導師。你不需要與這名導師建立起緊密的個人關係,但是你可以觀察他的言行與發表的言論主張,吸取他的觀念,然後引用到你的組織運作或是改善你的生活品質。
What kind of mentor do you need?
A mentor can help you improve your work and life. However, you can't expect someone to take you as an apprentice on their own initiative. You have to take the initiative to find someone who can help you.
The first step is to understand what kind of mentors are best suited to your needs. In addition to the formal mentoring relationship, you can consider the following alternatives:
  1. Mutual guidance. This could be anyone, your colleagues, friends, anyone who can help you and you can help him. Find someone you can learn from and you also have the knowledge or skills he needs.
  2. External mentors. This is a mentor who can provide you with objective opinions outside the organization. When you need something that is already exhausted, you may need some fresh ideas.
  3. Virtual tutor. You don't need to establish a close personal relationship with this mentor, but you can observe his words and deeds and opinions, absorb his ideas, and then refer to your organization or improve your quality of life.

承認你并不知道

許多人害怕說出:“我不知道。”,“你可以幫我嗎?”,或是“我不確定已經明白了。”好像這麼說會讓人感覺你很拙。
但是,不承認自己弄不清楚則容易犯下錯誤,或是在資訊不足的狀況下無法有效工作。
另外,若是你假裝自己知道一切,則會讓自己失去學習的機會。
更糟糕的是,如果你隱瞞自己的無知或是錯誤,則會喪失別人對你的信任。他們會發現你其實并不知道或是已經犯了錯誤。
面對事實。承認自己的有限能力。這樣別人也才會誠實對待你。當你需要時,儘管開口要求協助,你也會因此獲得學習的機會。

  2. 讓它透明爭辯。你很難對辦公室的政治置之不理,用私下運作,結果可能更糟。但是,對於你想推動的主張,可以讓大家一起來爭辯一番。你可以召開會議,讓不同主張的人們,都能夠表示出他們的意見。或是,你可以邀請其中幾位來一起午餐,聯繫感情,也可以消弭彼此的觀點差異。
  3. 做出妥協。你必須明白,你或許無法一時間消弭掉長期形成的政治衝突。但是,你可以發揮出協調的功能。訂出你自己也可以接受的妥協方案,將各方的顧慮考慮進來。展現你的誠意。并請支持你的伙伴來發揮出他們的影響力,先取得可行的支持。

優秀的領導者不應該忽略個人生活

許多領導者會為了公司的利益而犧牲自己的生活,但是這樣做最終于公于私都是不利的。

  3. 考慮可能的反應。想想看,如果你嘗試一個不同于以往的作法,例如不依照傳統在權威下的作法,可能會發生社麼結果?你是否有把握處理?這樣會讓你感覺比較有自信與得到滿足嗎?

夫妻檔都在工作,要保持愉快

許多夫妻關係不好的很大原因來自于工作:太多的出差、太少時間相聚、經常要外調。這很不容易,但是仍然可以一面維持夫妻都在工作,而仍然可以保有良好親密關係。

以下,是幾個可行的作法:
  1. 說出期望。不開口說出期望,經常是產生失望與產生溝通落差的原因。請向你的另一半說出你的期望,你需要對方如何配合。
  2. 安排時間相聚。如果你在工作與對外社交活動一般,你也應該安排出時間讓你們夫妻有時間相聚。
  3. 融合工作與家庭生活。工作與家庭生活不必然必須完全區隔出來。你可以找出方式將它們融合起來。例如,可以在家裡一邊工作,一邊和家人聊天。或是,你可以在上班的間隙,打個電話向家人問候。你也可以安排家人與同事的夫妻可以聚會交流。
Both husband and wife are working. Keep happy
Many couples have bad relationships because of work: too much travel, too little time to get together, and often having to transfer. It's not easy, but it's still possible to maintain a good relationship while both husband and wife are working.
Following are several possible approaches:
  1. Expectations. Unspeaking expectations is often the cause of disappointment and communication gap. Please share your expectations with your partner and how you need them to cooperate.
  2. Arrange time to meet. If you're working and socializing in general, you should also set aside time for your husband and wife to get together.
  3. Integrate work and family life. Work and family life need not be completely separated. You can find ways to integrate them. For example, you can work at home and chat with your family. Or, you can call your family to say hello between work. You can also arrange for couples of family members and colleagues to meet and communicate.

控制你的情緒,不然就暫時走開

現代多數的辦公室多半是開放式的,從CEO到前臺接待員,都是明顯的曝露在每個人的眼皮底下。要找到一個有門的房間,實在困難。 
這樣的開放式辦公空間,愈來愈被鼓勵,但是有的時候也會讓你陷入尷尬局面,尤其是當你受到挫折,情緒低迷的時候。 
下次當你感覺到你可能即將失去控制的時候(誰又沒有過這樣的遭遇?),先想到你正處於什麼場合。如果你已經察覺你正處在眾目睽睽之下,深呼吸一下,或是喝杯水,讓自己冷靜下來。不然,就走出辦公室,到空曠的空間去走走。 
在這種開放式辦公空間,通常很難永遠保持在專業的工作態度,也很難獲得同事給你公開的安慰支持。你必須學會如何控制你的情緒,否則,就設法自己能夠維護隱私。

Control your emotions, or walk away temporarily
Most modern offices are mostly open, from the CEO to the receptionist, are clearly exposed to everyone's eyes. It's really difficult to find a room with a door.  
Such open office space is increasingly encouraged, but sometimes it can put you in an awkward situation, especially when you are frustrated and depressed.  
The next time you feel like you're about to lose control (who hasn't had this experience yet?) First think about where you are. If you've noticed you're in the limelight, take a deep breath or drink a glass of water to calm yourself down. Otherwise, walk out of the office and into the open space.  
In such an open office space, it is often difficult to maintain a professional attitude forever, and it is also difficult to obtain public comfort and support from colleagues. You have to learn how to control your emotions, otherwise, try to maintain your privacy.

如何讓你的構想獲得批准?

儘管你有一個偉大的點子,但是不要認為別人就會和你一樣沉醉在你的熱情中。

下次,請用以下方法來爭取你的構想有較高的機會獲得批准:
  1. 建立聯盟, 爭取支持。事先和批准你的提案相關的人見面,向他們簡介你的構想,並爭取到他們的興趣。
  2. 保持簡明扼要。盡可能不要在你的簡介裡夾雜一大堆資料與分析資料。太多的細節只會讓你的聽眾昏頭轉向。保持簡明扼要,直接了當。
  3. 強調好處。你的聽眾會比較想知道你的構想對他們會帶來哪些好處。因此,你應該強調你的構想能夠帶給他們的好處。
