EXAMPLE 1 不敢問問題:
When I was an intern, I was much timider than I am today. During my internship, I was afraid to ask questions. I always felt like people didn't have enough time to help me.?
When it was time for my performance review, my manager told me that he felt like I wasn't learning enough. He encouraged me to ask questions so that I could learn. After that conversation, I asked many more questions and grew a lot in that role. In fact, they offered me a job upon graduation.
Apparently, this mistake taught me the importance of asking questions. And from then on, I got used to asking questions that I don't understand before I do something.
例子1不敢問問題:當(dāng)我還是個(gè)實(shí)習(xí)生的時(shí)候,我比今天計(jì)時(shí)得多。在我的實(shí)習(xí)期間,我不敢提問。我總是覺得人們沒有足夠的時(shí)間來幫助我。
當(dāng)我進(jìn)行績效評(píng)估的時(shí)候,我的經(jīng)理告訴我,他覺得我學(xué)得不夠。他鼓勵(lì)我問一些問題,以便我能夠?qū)W習(xí)。在那次談話之后,我問了更多的問題,并在這個(gè)角色上發(fā)展得很多。事實(shí)上,他們一畢業(yè)就給了我一份工作。
顯然,這個(gè)錯(cuò)誤告訴了我問問題的重要性。從那時(shí)起,我就習(xí)慣了在我做一些事情之前問一些我不理解的問題
EXAMPLE 2 為了給人留下好印象而承擔(dān)太多工作:
When I first became a manager, I was eager to make a good impression. So I ended up taking on more work than I could manage and constantly feeling overwhelmed and stressed throughout the day. Upon talking to my mentor, she made me realize that I needed to delegate more work to my team. I followed her advice and started giving my team more responsibilities.
My team ended up being quite happy with these changes. After giving them this work, I finally had the time I needed to focus on the rest of my projects. I ended up producing a better quality of work while my team also had the opportunity to grow in their roles. This experience taught me that it's okay to ask for help and that while I can do a lot, I can't do everything.
例子2為了給人留下好印象而承擔(dān)太多工作:
當(dāng)我第一次成為一名經(jīng)理時(shí),我渴望給人留下一個(gè)好印象。所以我最終承擔(dān)了一些我無法勝任的工作,并且在一天中總是感到不知所措和壓力。在和我的導(dǎo)師交談時(shí),她讓我意識(shí)到,我需要把更多的工作委托給我的團(tuán)隊(duì)。我聽從了她的建議,開始給我的團(tuán)隊(duì)承擔(dān)更多的責(zé)任。
我的團(tuán)隊(duì)最終對(duì)這些變化感到非常滿意。在給了他們這些工作之后,我終于有了我需要的時(shí)間來專注于我的其他項(xiàng)目。我最終創(chuàng)造了更好的工作質(zhì)量,而我的團(tuán)隊(duì)也有機(jī)會(huì)在他們的角色上成長。這段經(jīng)歷告訴我,尋求幫助是可以的,雖然我可以做很多事情,但我不能什么都做不了
EXAMPLE 3 由于時(shí)間緊迫而犯小錯(cuò)誤:
During college, I received an internship working with social media. One day, I was supposed to schedule a new series of ads for the company’s upcoming campaign. I didn’t have much free time, so I was in a hurry. I ended up publishing one of the videos instead of scheduling it.
When I noticed my mistake, many people had already watched it. Strategic information about the campaign spread because of my error, and I lost my internship. After that, I became more careful when publishing content and making sure I have the time to do things correctly. Also, I always double-check everything before submitting it.
例子3由于時(shí)間緊迫而犯小錯(cuò)誤:
在大學(xué)期間,我接受了在社交媒體工作的實(shí)習(xí)。有一天,我應(yīng)該為公司即將到來的宣傳活動(dòng)安排一系列新的廣告。我沒有多少空閑時(shí)間,所以我很著急。我最終發(fā)布了其中一個(gè)視頻,而不是安排它。
當(dāng)我注意到我的錯(cuò)誤時(shí),很多人已經(jīng)看到了它。由于我的錯(cuò)誤,關(guān)于競選活動(dòng)的戰(zhàn)略信息傳播開來,結(jié)果我失去了實(shí)習(xí)機(jī)會(huì)。在那之后,我在發(fā)布內(nèi)容時(shí)變得更加小心,并確保我有時(shí)間正確地做一些事情。而且,我總是在提交之前反復(fù)檢查所有內(nèi)容
