向老板匯報(bào)工作,是向他證明你很重要的大好機(jī)會(huì)。在介紹你完成的工作時(shí)要簡(jiǎn)明扼要(clearly and succinctly)。
首先要開(kāi)門(mén)見(jiàn)山,以一句話(huà)簡(jiǎn)要概括你的匯報(bào)主題。
☉Here are the reports you asked for.
這是您要的報(bào)告。
☉Let me show you the results of our meeting.
我來(lái)介紹一下我們會(huì)談的成果。
☉I’ve finished the analysis you wanted done.Would you like me to e-mail it to you?
我已經(jīng)完成了您想要做的分析。要我發(fā)郵件給您嗎?
☉Let me give you a brief summary of what we’ve been up to this week.
讓我來(lái)簡(jiǎn)單總結(jié)一下這個(gè)星期我們?nèi)〉玫倪M(jìn)展。
☉Here’s the sales figures from our department.
這是我們部門(mén)的銷(xiāo)售指數(shù)。
☉I’ve already completed the financial review.Please let me know if you have any questions about it.
我已經(jīng)完成了財(cái)務(wù)審核。如果您有什么疑問(wèn),盡管問(wèn)我。
謙虛
沒(méi)有人喜歡傲慢自大(arrogant)的員工,但這并不意味著你在完成一份很棒的工作后不該炫耀一下自己(toot your own horn)。因?yàn)槌錾墓ぷ鞫玫劫澷p(take credit)是合情合理的。
☉While you were away certain things got accomplished and I’d like to bring you up to date on……
在您離開(kāi)期間,一些事情都落實(shí)了,我依次介紹給您……
☉If I could draw your attention to……
我能否請(qǐng)您注意……
☉Here’s an update……
這是一份最近更新的……
☉I’d like to explain what’s happening with……
我想解釋一下在……發(fā)生的情況。
☉If you have time, I’d like you to take a look at……
如果您有時(shí)間,我想請(qǐng)您看一下……
積極主動(dòng)
老板們都希望自己的員工積極上進(jìn)(taking initiative),但要明白,作為員工,你的底線(xiàn)是不能越權(quán)(overstep your authority)。老板不在期間,如果你能做一些聰明的決策,那就意味著他回來(lái)后能輕松些。這是他們樂(lè)意看到的。
☉I hope you don’t mind, but I’ve already taken care of that.
我希望您不介意,我已經(jīng)考慮到那個(gè)(方面)了。
☉Don’t worry about the appointment schedule.I made arrangements already.
不必為預(yù)約時(shí)間安排而擔(dān)心,我都安排好了。
☉I took the liberty of arranging your meeting with Mr.Gilbert.
在您和吉爾伯特先生會(huì)面的安排上,我有充分的自由。
☉The supplier called about the problem, but we’ve got everything under control.
供貨商曾提出過(guò)此問(wèn)題,但是我們已經(jīng)都處理好了。
建立信任
如果你能想老板之所想,那一定會(huì)贏得贊譽(yù)(earn brownie points)。當(dāng)你以詳細(xì)的報(bào)告來(lái)一個(gè)個(gè)打消他們的顧慮時(shí),那就是他們對(duì)你建立信任(build their confidence)的開(kāi)始。
A:I'm going to have to change my meeting schedule this afternoon. Please call Mr. Gilbert's secretary.I need to meet with him about the budget projections as soon as possible.
B:Don't worry about the appointment schedule. I made arrangements already. I took the liberty of arranging your meeting with Mr.Gilbert.Will 3:00 pm be okay for you?If not, I can call to postpone the meeting.
A:我下午會(huì)議的時(shí)間得改了。請(qǐng)打電話(huà)給吉爾伯特先生的秘書(shū),說(shuō)我需要就預(yù)算規(guī)劃項(xiàng)目與他盡快碰面。
B:不必?fù)?dān)心會(huì)面時(shí)間,我已經(jīng)安排好了。在您與吉爾伯特先生會(huì)面的安排上,我有充分的自由。下午3點(diǎn)行嗎?如果不行,我可以打電話(huà)推遲。
總結(jié)只會(huì)埋頭苦干,不懂匯報(bào)成果,收獲與付出就不會(huì)成正比。匯報(bào)時(shí)要做到積極主動(dòng)、簡(jiǎn)明了當(dāng)、不驕不躁、天衣無(wú)縫。總之,“只要您想到的,我都做過(guò)了。”那就一定能夠換來(lái)老板滿(mǎn)意的笑容。
