Start Doing the Job

開始工作

You don't want to stage an office coup and start making personnel decisions that are your boss' responsibility. But you need to show that you can work at a higher level than your current position.

你最好別登上辦公室政變的舞臺(tái),越權(quán)幫你的上司做出那些人事決策。但是你需要證明自己能夠在一個(gè)比目前更高的職位工作。

"People are easily promoted when they show that they can already do parts of the job they want to move into," says Steve Levin, principal of Leading Change Consulting & Coaching, in Portola Valley, California. "If you want to move from being a manager to a group manager, start taking on responsibility for what a group manager does. Start thinking like they do."

Leading Change Consulting & Coaching是加州波托拉谷的一家公司,其主要負(fù)責(zé)人Steve Levin說:“在人們已經(jīng)開始做想要進(jìn)入的那個(gè)層次的工作的時(shí)候,他們就很容易獲得一次晉升。如果你想從一名經(jīng)理晉升到部門經(jīng)理的話,那就從主動(dòng)承擔(dān)部門經(jīng)理的一項(xiàng)任務(wù)開始吧。開始用他們的方式思考。“

Then you can make the case that "I'm already doing the job; I just need the title."

那么你就可以讓情況變?yōu)椤拔乙呀?jīng)做了這份工作,我現(xiàn)在需要的只是這個(gè)頭銜而已?!?/div>

"That's pretty irresistible to your boss," Levin says.

Levin說:“這對你的上司來說是不可拒絕的?!?/div>

Have a Plan B

有個(gè)后備計(jì)劃

Many people think there's a system in place at work that will take care of them and their career path, Harkness says. "They expect it to happen 1-2-3, automatically. They do the right thing, and they're going to get that promotion. It doesn't work that way."

很多人都認(rèn)為職場上會(huì)有一個(gè)自動(dòng)照顧他們以及職業(yè)發(fā)展道路的系統(tǒng)存在。Harkness說:“他們期待事情會(huì)自動(dòng)且接二連三地發(fā)生。他們做著正確的事情,然后就會(huì)得到晉升。但實(shí)際情況不是這樣的?!?/div>

In fact, Harkness says, it can happen that "you do everything you're supposed to do and it doesn't work." It's important to understand that the workplace is uncertain -- and to know what your backup plan is if you don't get the promotion you want.

Harkness說,實(shí)際上,即使你做了應(yīng)該做的所有工作,也可能得不到晉升。明白職場的不穩(wěn)定性是很重要的,并且要清楚如果沒有得到期待中的提升自己的后備計(jì)劃是什么。

If the promotion was a stretch and your boss is encouraging even while turning you down, it may be worth spending another year gaining experience. But you may also want to explore career options outside the company.

如果晉升看起來遙遙無期,你的上司在讓你失望的時(shí)候仍然在鼓勵(lì)你的話,那可能還值得繼續(xù)努力一年來累積經(jīng)驗(yàn)。但是你也可以在自己公司之外尋求發(fā)展機(jī)會(huì)。
