在艱難談話前,發洩一下

當你充滿消極情緒時,進行一次緊張的談話是不好的。
在你進入房間之前,找一個可以傾聽你抱怨的同事或朋友。說出你對形勢的感覺——好的,壞的,醜的。不要退縮。
這一點很重要,這樣你就不會壓抑自己的情緒,這會使談話更加複雜。當你隱藏自己的感受時,你更可能以意想不到的方式表達出來。
通過提前表達你的沮喪情緒來防止你的情緒洩露。這樣做可以幫助你在討論時感到平靜和集中。

Before a Difficult Conversation, Vent a Little
It’s not a good idea to go into a tense conversation when you’re full of negative emotions.
Before you get into the room, find a trusted colleague or friend who can listen to you complain. Say everything you feel about the situation — the good, the bad, and the ugly.
Don’t hold back. It’s important to get this out so that you’re not suppressing your emotions, which could make the conversation even trickier.
When you bottle up your feelings, you’re more likely to express them in unintended ways. Prevent your emotions from seeping out by voicing your frustrations ahead of time. Doing so will help you feel calm and centered when you’re having the discussion.

把你的工作頭銜和你想要的工作聯系起來

文言文:
以汝之職銜、系爾欲之事
吾之職銜不輒應出吾真何為。
是故,若慮今之銜可與辟官一過之意,何以將事移一新之事官或一全新之域乎??
要在示汝之能和事如何與新事也。
首列卿在工作中之五、六極重之職,而於此事記卿汝之成就。以此說,作一寸之自述,有新事須君者。此皆汝之履歷,而勿粗謂之“總結”。 若乙太常之名,則不得辟官之意,或君與出他應人之異。相反之,於是分注一題,真得汝之廣。
白話文
我們的工作頭銜並不總是反映出我們真正做什麼
所以,如果你擔心你現在的頭銜可能會給招聘官一個錯誤的想法,你是如何將職業移到一個新的工作崗位或者一個全新的領域呢?
關鍵是要展示你的技能和經驗是如何與新工作相關的。
首先列出你在工作中的五個或六個最重要的職責,並在這些方面記下你的成就。根據這些筆記,寫一個簡短的自我描述,說明你有新工作需要的經驗。這個總結你的履歷-但不要簡單地稱之為“總結” 若是用太普遍的名詞,就不能獲得招聘官的注意,或你和突出其他應聘人員的差異。相反的,給這個部分加註一個標題,真正抓住你的經驗的廣度。

Connect the Dots Between the Job Title You Have and the Job You Want
Our job titles don’t always reflect what we really do.
So how do you make a career move — either to a new job or maybe to an entirely new field — if you’re worried that your current title might give a hiring manager the wrong idea?
The key is to showcase how your skills and experience are relevant to the new job.
Start by making a list of the five or six most important responsibilities in the job posting, and jot down your accomplishments in those areas.
Based on these notes, write a brief description of yourself that shows you have the experience the new job requires. Add this summary to the top of your résumé — but don’t simply call the section “Summary.”
That overused term won’t grab anyone’s attention or distinguish you from other candidates. Instead, give the section a headline that really captures the breadth of your experience.

如果同事態度不好,找出原因

如果你和一個沒有團隊精神的人一起工作,你就很難避開在不應該說話卻亂插話的人但是你最好和那個人維持好關係。
你可以從友好的問題開始,而不是指責你的同事。你可能會問:“現在你還有什麼事嗎?”他們行為的根源可能令你吃驚。這個人可能正在家裡一個應付處理一個緊張的局面,這會導致他們在辦公室的注意力分散。或者他們可能察覺到你沒有意識到的工作壓力。
不要對他們為什麼態度不好作假設, 去查明真相。考慮約你的同事出去喝咖啡或午餐。並邀請幾名其他同事一起參加來提升團隊凝聚力。更多的互動將促進友好的團體關係。

If a Colleague Has a Bad Attitude, Find Out Why
If you work with a guy without team spirit, it's hard to avoid he talk when shouldn't talk, but you'd better keep in good touch with that guy.
Instead of blaming your colleagues, you can start from friendly questions. You may ask: "What do you do now?" The root cause of their behavior may surprise you. This person might be dealing with a home tense situation, which causes him to disperse in the office attention. Or, he may perceive some work pressure which you are yet aware.
Don’t make assumption about his bad attitude. Find out the fact. Consider to have coffee or lunch with him. And, invite several other colleagues to join to enhance team cohesion. More interaction will promote friendly relations.
