場景五:團隊合作。
Linda: Sounds good. Everyone is talking about teams these days. Can you describe your role as a member of a sales team?
Linda: 很好,人們現在熱衷于談論“團隊”。你能描述一下你在銷售團隊里的角色嗎?
Steve: I see myself chiefly as an inspirer. Sales can be quite competitive and some people in this field adopt a dog-eat-dog mentality.However, as a leader, I charge myself with making all units within a company function as one single entity. To cite an example, in my last job, each representative handled a different region. Instead of allowing successful initiatives to be hoarded by certain representatives, I developed a system for sharing those successful sales initiatives. Soon the entire sales team started talking of their successes, not just to brag, but also to share.
Steve: 我把自己當作一個鼓勵者。銷售這個領域的競爭很激烈,有些同事暗地里希望別人失敗。但是作為一個領導者,我要求自己把公司里的各部分職能都整合起來成為一個整體。舉個例子,在我最近的這份工作中,每個銷售代表管理一個不同的區域。為了防止成功的銷售保密自己的經驗,我建立了一套共享制度,讓所有業務員分享行之有效的銷售策略。很快整個銷售團隊開始交流成功經驗,大家交流不是為了吹牛,而是為了分享。
