成功路上容易被忽视的5种重要技能
放权 与确定优先顺序密不可分的就是有效的放权。如果一项任务不是必须由你完成,可以把它委托给其他人,实行间接管理。(工作清单最后的项目往往都无法完成——这些任务便可以委托给其他人。) 布拉特说:“无论处在什么级别,你总是在委托其他人。你始终都在依靠他人开展工作。如果你没有太多工作去做,那就是公司除了问题。” 要有效地放权,首先必须相信,接管任务的人能够很好完成工作,即便他所采取的方式或解决方案与你有所不同。给出明确的方向,提出参数,提供必要的资源,提供必要的培训。之后,尽管放手。 要培养上面这五项技能,最重要的是练习。从小做起,坚持不懈。要求同事和导师提供反馈。永不放弃!(财富中文网) 译者:刘进龙/汪皓 |
Delegation Along with prioritization comes the need to delegate well. If a task doesn't need to be completed by you, find someone else to delegate to, and manage the project indirectly. (The items at the very bottom of your to-do list may never get done -- and that may be OK.) "At any level you are always delegating. You are always relying on others," Bradt says. "If you don't have too much to do, the organization is in trouble." To effectively delegate, you must first believe the person who's taking over the task can complete it well, even if the path or the solution itself differs from what you would've done. Give clear direction, lay out parameters, make needed resources available, and provide any needed training. Then, step out of the way. To develop any one of these skills, the most important piece is practice. Start small and persist. Ask for feedback from colleagues and mentors. And don't give up! |
