橫向調(diào)動：陽關(guān)道還是死胡同？

????3.新職位的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)是否愿意聽從你的意見？弗蘭克爾最近指導(dǎo)過一名經(jīng)理，她接受了一個新設(shè)立的職位，還花了很多時間跟別人討論他們需要她提供何種幫助。但領(lǐng)導(dǎo)的想法與她不同。“他希望她一天到晚坐在辦公桌前，是一個徹頭徹尾的微觀管理者，”弗蘭克爾說。“在他的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)下，她無法對職位進行正確的定位，做好該做的事。”她最終沒能在那個職位上待太久。如果新職位的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)對你的技能、天賦，以及你對這個職位的看法沒有任何興趣，你也不會在這個職位上長待的。 ????4.新部門財務(wù)狀況如何？弗蘭克爾在自己的新書《職業(yè)女性易犯的致命錯誤》（Nice Girls Don't Get the Corner Office）修訂本中講述了一個有告誡意義的故事。故事中，年輕的女經(jīng)理被橫向調(diào)動到了一個垂死掙扎的邊緣部門。 ????由于非常渴望證明自己有能力扭轉(zhuǎn)乾坤，她接受了這個職位——結(jié)果才幾個月，這個部門就被拍賣了。部門被拍賣后，她也隨之被賣出，“最后只能為一家小得多、名氣也不大的公司工作。由于失去了在之前公司的工齡，她的退休金也受到了影響，”弗蘭克爾回憶道。“要是她詢問一下她的前任，就會發(fā)現(xiàn)，前任之所以離職，就是因為他知道會出現(xiàn)這種局面，因此想盡力避免。” ????5.新職位所處的業(yè)務(wù)領(lǐng)域是在蓬勃發(fā)展，還是即將被淘汰？擔(dān)任公司重要戰(zhàn)略部門的副主管和協(xié)助運營一個早已落后于時代的部門，兩者完全是兩碼事。因此在接受新職位之前，要注意考察你將進入哪種狀況。 ????弗蘭克爾說：“當前的變化速度這么快，因此，不管你身處哪個行業(yè)，都需要從日常工作中退后一步，縱覽大局。”如果你正在衡量的職位處于公司未來計劃的核心，這種橫向調(diào)動可能是極好的機會。否則，你就需要為你愿意在這個職業(yè)上待多久設(shè)定一個時間期限——弗蘭克爾建議的時間是12-18個月——而且（出于安全考慮）要求把這一點寫進合同。 ????祝你好運！（財富中文網(wǎng)） ????反饋：如果你最近也經(jīng)歷過職位上的橫向調(diào)動，你是怎么判斷新職位對你是否有利？結(jié)果如何？請在下面發(fā)表你的評論。 ????譯者：朱毓芬/汪皓 ???? |
????3. Will you be working for someone who's open to your ideas?Frankel recently coached a manager who had accepted a newly created position, and she spent lots of time talking to other people in the company about what they needed from her. Her boss, however, had other ideas. "He wanted her at her desk all the time, and he was a total micromanager," Frankel says. "He made it impossible for her to define the role and do what was needed." She didn't last long and, if your new boss isn't interested in the skills, talents, and ideas you bring to the job, neither will you. ????4. How is the business doing financially?In her new book, a revised and updated edition ofNice Girls Don't Get the Corner Office, Frankel tells a cautionary tale of a young female manager who was offered a lateral move to a remote, struggling division. ????Eager to prove she could turn things around, the manager accepted the job -- only to find out a few months later that the business was on the auction block. When it was sold, she was, too, "and ended up working for a much smaller, less prestigious company, on top of losing her tenure with the former parent, which affected her pension," Frankel recalls. "If only she had asked the person who had that job before her, she would have found out he was leaving because he knew what was coming, and he wanted to avoid it." ????5. Is the job in an area that's growing, or one that's obsolescing?Being second-in-command of a division that's strategically important to your company, and helping run one that is the modern-day equivalent of the buggy-whip business, are two entirely different things. So before you say yes, take a hard look at which one it is. ????"These days, the pace of change is so rapid that, no matter what industry you're in, you have to be able to step back from the day-to-day and look at the big picture," Frankel notes. If the role you're considering is central to your company's future plans, it could turn out to be a terrific move. If not, set a time limit on how long you're willing to stay in it -- Frankel suggests 12 to 18 months -- and, just to be on the safe side, ask to get that in writing. ????Good luck. ????Talkback:If you've made a lateral move lately, how did you decide whether it made sense for you?
