和同事建立良好關系 Building Relationships with Coworkers

和睦的同事關系(workplace relationships)可以讓你在上班時間心情愉快;糟糕的同事關系可能會令你無法專心,甚至把一些工作搞得一塌糊涂,夢魘(nightmare)一般。一些交流的技巧可以幫助你和同事建立良好的關系。

首先,要友好,留心同事們的需要,樂于提供幫助和接受建議。

☉How’s it going?

怎么樣了?

☉How are you doing on(project)?Anything I can do to help?

在(項目)上做得怎么樣?有什么要我?guī)兔Φ膯幔?

☉How long have you worked here?

你在這里工作多久了?

☉What’s your plan for lunch?Care to join me?

你午餐怎么吃?愿意和我一起吃嗎?

☉I brought in some doughnuts for our coffee break.Would you like one?

我?guī)Я诵┨鹛鹑?,可以在喝咖啡休憩的時間吃,你想來一個嗎?

☉Let me know if I can help you with anything.

如果有什么我能幫忙的,盡管告訴我。

尊重你的同事

互相尊重是友好關系的基礎(foundation)。盡量避免冒犯(avoid offending)你的同事。當然,如果碰上了極易得罪(easily offended)的人,那只能敬而遠之了。

☉Please let me know if I’ve said or done anything to offend you.I can assure you, it was completely unintended.

如果我說了什么冒犯你的話或者做了得罪你的事情,請一定要告訴我。我可以保證,那完全不是故意的。

☉I appreciate your work on(project).I feel like I can learn a lot from you.

我非常欣賞你在(某項目)上的工作。我覺得從你身上可以學到很多。

☉Would you mind lending me a hand with……

您是否愿意幫我……

☉Don’t worry about Anna, she’s like that to everyone.Don’t take it personally.

別管安娜,她對誰都那樣。不用在意。

☉Maybe he’s having a bad day.We should give him some space.

也許他今天心情欠佳,我們應該多給他些空間。

☉Don’t hesitate to tell me if you don’t feel comfortable with……I’ll be happy to make special arrangements for you.

如果……讓你感覺不舒服,請直接告訴我,無需顧忌什么。我會很愿意為你做一些特別的安排。

別討論讓你的同事感覺不舒服的話題

個人隱私、健康問題、政治、對工作或者個人生活的埋怨,都屬于應該盡量避免的話題(fall under the heading)。因為大部分人都會覺得這些話題是個人的隱私,不應該在公共場合談及。如果有人和你聊起這些話題,你可以想辦法讓他知道你感覺不快,或者設法改變話題(change the subject)。

A:I had to go to the doctor yesterday to check up on my heart. You know,

I've had this pain in my arm for the last few months. And I just got over the flu.So I still have a little cough.Well, I was worried about the cough being related to my diabetes, so I……

B:Wow, it sounds like you've had a lot of trouble with your health. I hope you feel better soon. So what were you saying about the marketing report?

A:我昨天不得不去找醫(yī)生檢查我的心臟。你知道,最近幾個月我胳膊這塊老是疼。而且我流感剛好,還有點輕微的咳嗽。我一直都挺擔心咳嗽會影響到我的糖尿病,所以我……

B:哇,聽起來你最近身體欠佳。希望你能盡快好起來。我想問一下你對營銷報告有什么看法?

別道聽途說,散布流言

辦公室的流言蜚語(gossip)無非兩種:一種是小道消息(office grapevine),即通過非正常渠道獲得并在公司內(nèi)部流傳的消息;另外一種是虛假信息,或者即便是真的,也關系到個人隱私。無論哪種都應避免。

A:Did you hear?Barbara, who works as a secretary for Bob Jones, just got divorced from her husband. And I heard from Sally in finance that the reason might have to do with something going on between Barbara and Bob.Can you believe that?

B:Uh……It's probably not any of our business anyway. We'd probably better focus on our work rather than talking about rumors which may be or may not be true.

A:你聽說了嗎?芭芭拉,就是鮑勃·瓊斯的秘書,剛和她老公離婚了。而且我還聽財務的薩莉說,好像跟芭芭拉和鮑勃的一些事有關。你信嗎?

B:嗯……這可能不關我們的事。我們最好還是少說些是非不清的閑話,把注意力放在工作上。

總結(jié)

“關系”這個詞無論對哪種文化都有著特殊的意義,尤其是抬頭不見低頭見的同事關系。尊敬他人、樂于助人、真誠待人;對那些性格古怪的人敬而遠之;對于流言蜚語做到濁者自濁、清者自清。請相信:這樣做人,你的同事就沒有不喜歡你的理由了。

實景對話2

A:Hi, Anna……Do you have a minute?I wanted to discuss something with you.

B:Well, I'm very busy.I have been so swamped.You know, I had to go to the doctor yesterday to check up on my heart. You know, I've had this pain in my arm for the last few months.And I just got over the flu.So I still have a little cough.Well, I was worried about the cough being related to my diabetes, so I……

A:Wow, it sounds like you've had a lot of trouble with your health. I hope you feel better soon. Anyway, what I want to ask you about is the marketing report.Have you finished looking it over yet?

B:Well, if that's all you wanted to know. I can't say whether I have or not.

You know, it's not my fault that the secretary puts things in the wrong places!

A:So you're saying you haven't had a chance to look at the report yet?

B:Nope.

A:Anna, I sense that our communication hasn't been so effective. Please let me know if I've said or done anything to offend you. I can assure you, it was completely unintended.Don't hesitate to tell me if you don't feel comfortable with reviewing the reports.I'll be happy to ask someone else to do it.

B:Who else were you going to get to do it?

A:Barbara could do it.

B:Barbara?Bob Jones'secretary?Did you hear?Barbara just got divorced from her husband. And I heard from Sally in finance that the reason might have to do with something going on between Barbara and Bob.Can you believe that?

A:Uh……It's probably not any of our business anyway. We'd probably better focus on our work rather than talking about rumors which may be or maynot be true.
