The first step to being a successful manager by admitting you don’t have all the answers. Your co-workers know that you can’t solve all the problems by yourself, so they will be watching to see what you do.
要做一個成功的經理人第一步就要承認你不是全能。你的同事知道你自己不能解決所有的問題,因此他們會留意你做的事情。
Top management at your company also knows you won’t have the answers and are looking to see how you find them. Be yourself and remember that your failures will be forgiven if you are honest and tried to do the right thing.
公司的高層管理人也知道你不是知道所有問題的答案,他們看你如何找到答案。做你自己,記住你的失誤會得到諒解的,只要你是誠實的,而且你本想做正確的事情。
所以,你一定要注意的,是下面我們給你的建議:
- Stay focused. Your job is to manage the department, not become friends with your employees or do their jobs if they can’t. Make sure you have a clear job description and then sit down with your supervisor and find out exactly what expectations he or she has for you.
工作專注。你的工作是管理某個部門,而不是去成為雇員的朋友或者如果他們不行的話就去做他們的工作。確保你清楚自己的工作職責,然后坐下來和你的上司弄清楚他/她對你有什么期望。
Go through the job description line by line. Prioritize the tasks and find out what any vague wording exactly means. Then it is the time to ask questions and to point out any tasks that you feel aren’t under your control.
逐字仔細閱讀工作描述。把各項工作的優先次序區別開來,然后弄懂那些模糊的措辭確切指的是什么。接下來的時間是提問題,并把你認為不是你的管轄范圍內的工作指出來。
