“最偉大的經(jīng)理人”韋爾奇說:做這兩件事能讓你加薪升職
????在LinkedIn上,通用電氣傳奇CEO杰克·韋爾奇,為渴望進(jìn)步的上班族們提出了一些忠告。簡單來說,他認(rèn)為每一位想要升職的員工,都應(yīng)該做兩件事:超乎預(yù)期地完成工作,并讓你的上司看得更遠(yuǎn)。 ????在通用電氣,韋爾奇從底層做起,一路擢升,最終在1981年成為該公司第八任董事長兼CEO。2000年,他被《財(cái)富》雜志評(píng)為“世紀(jì)經(jīng)理人”。這位傳奇CEO的職業(yè)建議來自他在企業(yè)界摸爬滾打近55年的經(jīng)驗(yàn),他把這些經(jīng)驗(yàn)記錄在與妻子蘇西·韋爾奇合著的一本書中。為了證明自己的觀點(diǎn),韋爾奇回憶了在職業(yè)生涯中為他帶來重要升職機(jī)會(huì)的一個(gè)例子。 ????“當(dāng)時(shí)我還年輕,正擔(dān)任一種新型塑料的工藝工程師,負(fù)責(zé)管理一家小型的10 x 10化學(xué)實(shí)驗(yàn)廠,我的上司對(duì)我說:‘老板要從紐約來視察。我們想給他看看你在新試驗(yàn)廠中部署的管道。’” ????“老板從紐約來我們的工廠考察時(shí),我向他介紹了塑料技術(shù)的最新發(fā)展,還有我的小項(xiàng)目。此外,我還從更宏觀地角度,向他講述了我們的塑料在整個(gè)塑料行業(yè)中所處的位置,以及這個(gè)行業(yè)未來的發(fā)展方向。” ????“我在那里工作才一年時(shí)間,而且我也不算天才人物。但我做過大量的研究,證明我們的產(chǎn)品有非常廣泛的應(yīng)用前景。這足以讓老板清楚他的投資對(duì)象,我們的研究進(jìn)展,以及我們的塑料與業(yè)內(nèi)三家主要競(jìng)爭對(duì)手的產(chǎn)品的對(duì)比情況——對(duì)方有哪些優(yōu)勢(shì),而我們又有哪些優(yōu)勢(shì)?” ????一年以后,這位老板想起了韋爾奇,并給了他一次升職的機(jī)會(huì)。韋爾奇認(rèn)為,成功的關(guān)鍵在于:“不論體現(xiàn)在數(shù)字上還是行動(dòng)上,你交付的結(jié)果都要比別人預(yù)期的更好一點(diǎn)。此外,尋求站在更高的角度看問題。”(財(cái)富中文網(wǎng)) ????譯者:劉進(jìn)龍/汪皓 ????審校:任文科 |
????Legendary General Electric CEO Jack Welch has taken to LinkedIn to offer a few words of wisdom to those office dwellers looking to get ahead. In short, there are two things that every worker should do to snag that promotion: over deliver, and make your boss smarter. ????Welch worked his way up at GE , eventually becoming the company’s eighth chairman and CEO in 1981. He even snagged Fortune’s “Manager of the Century” title in 2000. His career advice has been well-honed over his nearly 55 years of experience in the corporate world — and it has been chronicled in a book he co-wrote with his wife Suzy Welch. ????To prove his point, Welch recalled an example from early in his career that paid off in a big promotion. ????One time, when I was a young process engineer on a new plastic, running a small 10×10 chemical pilot plant, my boss said to me, “Oh, the boss from New York is coming up. We want to show him the pipes you put in place in the new pilot plant you’ve got.” ????When the New York boss came up to see us, I gave him the requisite update on the plastic and my little project. But I also painted him a bigger picture of how the plastic we had fit into the entire plastics industry and where the industry was headed. ????Now, I had only been there a year and I was not a genius by any means. But I had done a hell of a lot of research to show how our product fit into the larger scheme of things. It was enough to give a clear view of what he was investing in, where we were in it, and how our plastic compared to our top three competitors — what our strengths were, compared to what their strengths were. ????A year later that same boss remembered Welch, granting him a big promotion. That’s the key to success, according to Welch: “Over-deliver on the numbers and behaviors, but also gunning for the bigger perspective.” |
