有格調的離職

當你決定要離職時，做的有格調些：

1. 確保這是關乎你的決定。對自己的決定負責任，不要用任何理由來怪別人。解釋這個行動是對你有意義的。
2. 承認別人會受到影響。你的離職確實會對你的上司與同事造成不方便。你要承認並面對他們在短期內遭受到的困難。
3. 保持聯繫。不要斷絕所有的聯繫，因為你不知道是否將來還會發生生麼。如果可能，設法成為你的老闆的自由工作者或是顧問。

Resignation with a style

When you decide to leave, do something in style.

1. Make sure it's about your decision. Take responsibility for your decisions, and do not blame others for any reason. It makes sense to you to explain this action.
2. Admit that others will be affected. Your departure will really be inconvenient for your boss and colleagues. You have to acknowledge and face the difficulties they face in the short term.
3. Keep in touch. Don't break all ties, because you don't know if there will be any future. If possible, try to be a freelance worker or consultant to your boss.

如何在30秒內將自己推銷出去

在當前的經濟形勢下找工作是很困難，而且相當競爭的。你必須確保自己在求職面試時，能夠很有效率的讓潛在的僱主確認選擇你。

用以下的技巧將自己在30秒之內能夠推銷出去：

1. 練習、練習、再練習。不要一見面就咳嗽，或發出含糊不清的聲音。你要一再的做事前的練習，避免當場失態。
2. 關注在有衝擊力的重點上。你不需要復誦寫在履歷表的內容。與其說你有多少年的經歷，不如談談你在之前的工作上做出了什麽重要的貢獻，以及你希望在新工作上能夠達成什麽新的成績。
3. 不要拘泥規矩。我們通常會被告誡不要吹噓，但是在推銷自己時必須打破陳規。你應該準備好優雅的展現自己。

How do you sell yourself in 30 seconds?

In the current economic situation, finding a job is difficult and quite competitive. You have to make sure that potential employers identify you when you are in the job interview.

Use the following techniques to sell yourself in 30 seconds:

1. Practice, practice, and practice. Don't cough or make vague noises as soon as you meet. You have to repeatedly work before exercise, avoid on the spot.
2. Focus on impact. You don't need to recite the contents of your resume. Rather than how many years of experience you've had, talk about what important contributions you made in your previous job and what new accomplishments you would like to achieve in your new job.
3. Don't act up to rules. We are usually told not to brag, but we must break the rules when selling ourselves. You should be ready to show yourself gracefully.

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。

一個領導者如果忽略了自己需要的運動、睡眠、娛樂、家庭互動，最後將導致他也將失去了工作能量、專注力與工作熱情。這樣消耗自己的狀況，通常不容易被外人察覺，但是將會嚴重影響到你在工作上的創造力與執行力。

當今的超級巨星都是能夠同時平衡地重視他人與自己的。保留足夠的時間來運動、享受愛好活動、和家人共進晚餐，或是從事任何對你是重要的活動，都會同樣地增進你在工作上的表現。

你可以從一些對你重要的安排開始，然後盡量保持住。如果你可以成功做到，再增加其他的項目安排。不用多久，你就會感受到工作效能明顯的改善了。

Excellent leaders should not neglect personal life

Many leaders will sacrifice their lives for the benefit of the company, but ultimately it will be unfavorable for both the public and the private.

If a leader neglects the sports, sleep, entertainment and family interaction he needs, he will eventually lose his working energy, concentration and enthusiasm. It is not easy for outsiders to perceive the situation that consumes you, but it will seriously affect your creativity and execution in your work.

Today's superstars are able to value others and themselves in a balanced way. Keeping enough time to exercise, enjoy hobbies, have dinner with your family, or engage in any activity that is important to you will also improve your performance at work.

You can start with some arrangements that are important to you and try to keep them. If you can succeed, add other project arrangements. It won't take long for you to feel that your work efficiency has improved significantly.

信任直覺判斷

我們都被教導應該服從權威。如此，我們通常就不太理會我們內心的直覺感受。但是，你的直覺經常是正確的。

那麼，你應該如何克服對自己的懷疑，并敢於挑戰權威呢？請試著這麼做。

1.  傾聽你內在的聲音。請做個深呼吸，然後想想究竟發生了什麼事，後續將會如何。問自己：“有沒有其他的解決途徑？”
2. 提出建設性的問題。問你的老闆、同事或客戶：“為什麼要這麼做？你願意接受其他的作法嗎？我們沒有別的選擇嗎？我們可以嘗試一下嗎？”
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？

Trust your intuitive judgment

We are all taught to obey the authority, so we don't usually pay attention to our gut feelings, but your instincts are often right.

So, how do you overcome your doubts about yourself and dare to challenge authority? Please try to do that.

1. Listen to your inner voice. Take a deep breath, and think about what happened and what will follow. Ask yourself, "Are there any other solutions?""
2. Ask constructive questions. Ask your boss, coworker, or client: "Why do you want to do this? Are you willing to accept something else? Do we have no choice? Can we try?"
3. To consider possible responses. Think about it, if you try a different approach, such as not in accordance with the traditional authority in practice, what might happen? Are you sure you are? This will make you feel more confident and satisfied?

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。

無論是一個建議方案或是一份企劃書要獲得批准，通常很少是來自於它的內涵價值，而是你如何呈現它。

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。

How do you get your idea approved?

Although you have a great idea, don't assume that others will be as enthusiastic as you are.

Whether a proposal or a proposal is to be approved, it usually comes less from its connotative value than from how you present it.

Next time, please use the following methods to gain a better chance of getting your idea approved:

1. Build alliances and win support. Meet in advance with those involved in approving your proposal, brief them on your idea and gain their interest.
2. Keep it concise. As far as possible, don't mix up a lot of data and analysis in your profile. Too many details will only make your audience dizzy. Keep it concise and straightforward.
3. Emphasize the benefits. Your audience will want to know what benefits your idea will bring to them. Therefore, you should emphasize the benefits that your ideas can bring to them.

維護你的導師關係

要找到正確的導師是很艱巨的，但是維護好導師關係也是一樣的挑戰。

請嘗試用以下的作法來維護你的導師關係：

1. 建立互動機制。以定期的會議來互動，讓你們之間的對話不會陷入無意義的閒聊。你應該確保每次會議都能夠朝向預定目標前進。
2. 讓互動產生動力。如果你的導師沒有給你指定功課，主動要求，並且將作業納入你的工作日程表。
3. 知道何時該往前推進。一旦你達成了目標，在報酬效果遞減消失前，趕快再設定新的目標，請導師作新的指導。萬一他不再能符合你新的期待而必須結束現有的指導關係，而你必須另覓良師時，也請與他保持友好關係，他可能可以在其他方面成為你很好的贊助支持者。
