怡敏信高管:选对老板最重要

Chanelle Bessette 2014年04月02日
芭芭拉•尼尔松从小喜欢数学,一直活跃在科技领域,如今是存储与安全公司怡敏信的移动安全部门负责。她说,最重要的是谨慎选择公司和老板。刚走出校门的时候,要从自己的经历中总结学习,要选择能够给你带来宝贵经历的地方。

    9. 你最近读过的一本书是什么?

    方济各就是弗朗西斯教皇。亚伯拉罕•斯科尔卡是一位犹太教教士。两人是好朋友,弗朗西斯在阿根廷任大主教时,两人合著了这本书。他们经常一起喝咖啡,讨论当时的宗教问题。他们在许多问题上达成了共识,当然在有些问题上也存有分歧。我发现,凡是对比性的宗教研究都非常有意思。书中谈到了人们的信仰结构和人们如何将自己的信仰合理化,引人入胜。人在读这本书的过程中会发现书中的教皇与想象中完全不同。他是个很普通的人。他和斯科尔卡都非常精明,充满了智慧。但这本书却非常低调。不会让人感觉到紧张刺激。

    我最近在读的另外一本书是布拉德•托尔的《黑名单》(Black List ),书中提到了IronKey!这本书之所以有趣,是因为书的主题是美国国家安全局(NSA)的恶劣行为。而且,这本书在爱德华•斯诺登事件之前就已经出版,所以更有意思。作者在书的开头写道:“这是一本虚构小说,但文中的科技都是真实存在的。”科技的能力真是让人惊叹。

    10. 你有什么独特的习惯或癖好吗?

    我有几个癖好。我在颜色和组织方面有些怪癖。这方面,我有一点强迫症。我依然会把东西写在纸上,我会把文件用不同颜色分类。我不喜欢杂乱无章的桌面;我希望桌面干干净净。所以,每次事情做完,我会把一堆用过的东西扔掉,作为对自己的奖赏。在习惯方面,我是《糖果粉碎传奇》(Candy Crush )的粉丝,不过这算不上独特。(财富中文网)

    9. What was the last book you read?

    On Heaven and Earth by Jorge Mario Bergolgio and Abraham Skorka. You would know the first man as Pope Francis. Abraham Skorka is a rabbi. It's a book written by the two of them -- they were friends -- when the pope was an archbishop in Argentina. They would get together for coffee and discuss religious issues of the day. They agreed on some things and didn't agree on others. I find any kind of comparative religious studies interesting. It's fascinating to see what the belief structures are and how people rationalize them. When you're reading it, the Pope is a different guy from what you think of when you think of a pope. He's a normal guy. He and the rabbi are both very shrewd and intelligent, but the book is very low key. It's not intense.

    Another recent book I read was Black List by Brad Thor, and IronKey was featured in the book! It was kind of interesting because the general theme of the book is the NSA gone rogue. It was before the Edward Snowden event which makes it even more interesting. At the beginning of the book the author says, "This is a work of fiction, but all of the technology is real." It's pretty amazing what can be done.

    10. What is one unique or quirky habit that you have?

    I have several. I'm funny about color and organization, and I'm a little OCD that way. I still keep some things on paper, and I color code the files. I don't like a messy desk; I like it clean, so I reward myself by putting away the pile of stuff when it's done. In terms of habits, I'm a Candy Crush addict, but that's not unique.
