如何獲得真實的領先?

許多人認為其職業生涯將會逐步升級。事實上,許多工作發展並不一定有職位抬頭的升級。許多成功的職業發展方式是混合了迂迴調職與職位升級的,如螺旋一般的盤旋而上。
一般人在職業發展初期,會升等的比較快,然後當他非常專業時,會觸到職場上的天花板。
不要太過關切你名片上的職位抬頭。一旦你有了較高的職位抬頭,有更多的直屬報告下屬,或是其他誘人的辦公室安排,例如有了較氣派的辦公桌椅,或是個人辦公室,就很容易讓你分心、飄飄然。
你應該更專注在如何能夠讓你得到長期的發展。問問自己,這樣的職位升等,或是在辦公室內的橫向調職,是否真的能夠讓你學習到所需要的技能與經驗?你如何才能為企業做出更好的貢獻?

How to get a real lead?
Many people think their career will escalate. In fact, many job development does not necessarily have the upgrading of posts. Many successful ways of career development are mixed roundabout transfers and job escalation, such as spiral spiral.
In the early stage of career development, the average person will rise faster, and then when he is very professional, he will touch the ceiling of the workplace.
Don't go too far and cut up the position on your business card. Once you have a higher position, there are more direct reports, or other tempting office arrangements, such as a more gas desk chair, or a personal office, which can easily distract you.
You should focus more on how you can get long-term development. Ask yourself if such a job promotion, or lateral transfer in the office, really allows you to learn the skills and experience you need. How can you make a better contribution to the business?

用不同的眼光來安排職業發展

一般人都會期待能夠在企業的層級組織結構上,循序獲得升遷機會,得到一個主管辦公室。然而,企業組織通常不會有那麼多主管的空缺職位,多數人只好不斷轉換工作職位或是在不同的部門之間流轉。 
如果你也遇到這樣沒有立即可以垂直升遷的階梯,請用不同的眼光來調整你的職業發展步調:
  1. 給自己更寬廣的發展空間。與其期待得到向上升遷的機會,不如給自己有橫向發展的空間。例如,如果你是名財務分析師,你可以考慮從其他一樣可以做分析工作的機會,例如市場研究或是銷售業務。
  2. 證明你可以承擔更多責任。找到可以展現你的能力的方式。例如,你是否可以擔任一些管理工作?你是否能夠協助你的主管做面試新人或是訓練新人的工作?
  3. 發展新技能。找出可以學習的機會,並且認真投入去學習。如果你發現你的公司或是部門內沒有人熟悉某種技能,你就可以去獲得這樣的技能,成為專業。這樣的新技能或是新知識,也許就是你下次獲得拔擢為主管的優先考慮因素。
Arrange career development with different eyes
Most people will expect to be able to get a promotion opportunity in a hierarchical structure and get a competent office. However, corporate organizations usually do not have so many executive positions, most of them have to switch jobs or transfer among different departments.
If you encounter such a ladder without immediate promotion, please adjust your career progression differently.
  1. Give yourself a wider space for development. Rather than looking forward to a chance of upward promotion, it is better to have room for horizontal development. For example, if you are a financial analyst, you can consider other opportunities to analyze, such as market research or sales.
  2. Prove that you can take on more responsibilities. Find ways to show your ability. For example, can you do some management work? Can you assist your supervisor in doing interviews or training new people?
  3. Develop new skills. Identify opportunities that can be learned and seriously invest in learning. If you find that no one in your company or department is familiar with certain skills, you can acquire such skills and become a professional. Such new skills or new knowledge may be the priority for your next promotion.

如何在公司裡轉換另一個工作崗位?

要在公司裡換一個工作崗位,是非常具挑戰的。如果你的領導們認為你是IT人員,你很難說服他們你適合作市場推廣。
以下的意見可以幫助你戰勝他們的管窺之見,並說服領導們你已經準備好接受新的挑戰
  1. 做成雙贏。將你申請轉換工作做成可以為公司帶來價值的建議。舉例,解釋你具有尚未發揮的技能潛力可以在另外一個部門勝任一個重要的任務。
  2. 照顧你現有的職位。答應你會為你的繼任者提供訓練,或是你願意以兼任的方式照顧現有的職位工作。
  3. 為其他人考慮。如果你太過堅持你的立場,將會讓你沒有退路。你可以強調你的轉換工作,可以開創給資淺的人一個新的學習與成長的機會。
How to change another job in a company?
It is very challenging to change a job in the company. If your leaders think you are a IT, you can hardly convince them that you are suitable for marketing.
The following advice can help you overcome their vision and convince leaders that you are ready to accept new challenges.
  1. Make a win-win situation. Apply your job transfer to a proposal that can bring value to the company. For example, explaining that you have potential skills that are not yet available can be important in another department.
  2. Take care of your existing position. To promise that you will provide training for your successor, or you will be willing to take care of the existing position in a part-time manner.
  3. Considering other people. If you insist too much on your position, you will have no way out. You can emphasize that your transformation can create a new opportunity for people to learn and grow.

獲得新工作了,不要犯這些錯誤

獲得老闆升遷、或是調職到新職位,是會讓人興奮的。但是,這不會是容易的。
以下是在調職到新工作職位上時,你要小心避免通常會犯下的錯誤:
  1. 忘了員工的重要性。許多新任主管都會洋洋灑灑的大談他的工作計劃,卻忽略了他必須仰賴團隊成員來執行他的計劃。你必須同樣重視建立起與團隊成員的工作關係。
  2. 忽略了傾聽意見。你也許急於自我介紹,并談論你的新計劃。但是,不要佔據了你和團隊成員的對話時間,也分配一些時間來聽聽他人的回饋意見。
  3. 用老方法來發展新工作。每個組織都會有一套慣性的工作方式。不要假設你在以前的公司或是其他部門的工作方式可以在新組織里一樣暢通無阻。你必須先了解新組織里的作業方式,以及思考如何才能建立起你的領導權威。
Get a new job, don't make these mistakes
Getting a boss's promotion or transferring to a new position is exciting. But it won't be easy.
Now, when moving to a new job position, you should be careful to avoid the usual mistakes.
  1. Forget the importance of the staff. Many new managers talk about his work plans in a flurry, ignoring the fact that he has to rely on team members to execute them. You must also attach importance to establishing a working relationship with team members.
  2. Overlooked listening. You may be anxious to introduce yourself and talk about your new plan. However, do not occupy the conversation time between you and the team members, and also allocate some time to listen to others' feedback.
  3. Use old methods to develop new jobs. Every organization has an inertial way of working. Don't assume that the way you work in your previous company or other department can be as smooth as possible in the new organization. You have to understand how the new organization works and how to build your leadership authority.
