十位商界女強人的差旅寶典
????您如何克服時差?飛機一落地,我便會立即讓自己調整到新時區;換一只手表,多喝水,經常做做伸展運動。上床睡覺之前,我會洗個熱水澡。我會設兩個鬧鈴,這樣就不必因為擔心無法按時起床而輾轉反側。如果可能的話,我會在飛行途中或是在工作一天后的用餐之前,睡上20分鐘。候機或飛機短暫停留時,我也會抓緊在機場內快步走走。這樣有助于保持血液循環! ????您必備的出差美容用品有哪些?海藍之謎(La Mer)護膚品;潘婷(Pantene)抗衰老洗發用品;我最愛的香水——DIVA;我最可靠的化妝箱,里面有粉底、腮紅、眼影/眼線和兩支唇膏。海藍之謎潤唇膏是最佳選擇。 ????經常出差,您如何與孩子/丈夫/愛人保持健康的關系?我每天晚上都會與丈夫通話——不論我在哪兒。我會選擇在他吃飯之前與他聯系。通常情況下,這個時間我剛好吃完晚飯。我們之間有三個小時的時差——他在西部,而我在東部。即使我去西部出差,我們也會堅持這種習慣,或者我在他睡覺之前與他聯系。我出差的時候,每天晚上都會跟我的兩個兒子通話。我發現,在他們十幾歲的時候,他們更愿意在我出差時,每天晚上與我電話交流,甚至比我回到家后與他們的交流還要多。 ????您認為哪里的機場最適合消磨時光?我喜歡美國聯合航空公司(United Airlines)的丹佛航站樓。因為15年以來,這里一直有一家很不錯的女士服裝店,我可以在半個小時里大肆揮霍一番!可惜,去年這家店關閉了,到現在我還感到非常惋惜。我在紐約肯尼迪國際機場(JFK)或舊金山機場(SFO)的時間最多。這兩家機場一直在提高他們的服務水平,不過紐約肯尼迪國際機場的美聯航空頭等艙休息室非常出色,我在機場的大部分時間都是在那里度過的。 杰西卡?赫林 ????職務:創始人兼CEO ????公司:飾品直銷公司Stella & Dot ????出差頻率:每年6-7周 ????您使用什么樣的旅行箱(或旅行包)?我是極簡主義者,只要有可能,就盡量避免檢查行李包這類事。所以,我需要用兩個包來裝下所有東西——Stella & Dot 手提包是我最喜歡的便攜手提包,而基本款的黑色新秀麗(Samsonite)拉桿包總是讓我想起‘很多包看起來都一樣’這樣的警示語。你知道,我經常在行李托運處拿錯包。 ????哪兩個應用程序是您旅途中必不可少的?筆記應用程序Evernote,可以記錄一位客戶或周圍的世界帶給我的任何靈感,還有Facebook。 ????長途火車/飛機旅行中如何讓自己更加舒適?乘飛機旅行對我來說是很好的機會,我可以不受干擾地專注于工作。所以對我而言,舒適就是要保證所有設備已經充好電和可以充電,讓我有很多音樂可以聽。此外,一條能讓我溫暖的毯子,一本平裝書或一份報紙,讓我在沒有電的15分鐘時間里也不會閑得無聊。 ????您如何克服時差?說實話?咖啡和安必恩(Ambien)。此外,如果我的身體依然認為現在是午夜,那么我會努力在心理上承認我所在的時區,然后到外面曬曬太陽。 ????您必備的出差美容用品有哪些?芭比布朗(Bobbi Brown)BB霜——我喜歡多效合一。蘭蔻(Lancome )精密睫毛膏和納斯(Nars)彩妝或Buxom潤唇膏。 ????經常出差,您如何與孩子/丈夫/愛人保持健康的關系?Skype和FaceTime真的太神奇了!我們會一起給孩子講睡前故事。我丈夫會在女兒的房間與我通過Skype通話。他去洗澡的時候,我會對孩子們嘮嘮叨叨,讓她們為明天上學做好準備。我會一邊在酒店房間里工作,一邊對她們喊“嘿——你不能穿這雙鞋”,“好了,快去刷牙!”我也會盡快完成行程,回去和家人團聚。 ????您認為哪里的機場最適合消磨時光?雖然這里是我的“主場”,但我還是喜歡舊金山機場的2號航站樓。任何多余的時間都可以用在這里。這里有許多電源插座,誘人的美食,還有一個地方可以做美甲或按摩。它甚至還有一個瑜伽房。當然我從來沒去過,但每次從那里經過還是讓我感覺很有意思。所以,我的回答是加州,我最愛的家鄉。 |
????Advice for combating jet lag? I get on the new time zone immediately once the plane takes off; change my watch, drink lots of water and always do a stretch routine. I take a hot bath before bed. I set two alarms so I don't toss and turn worrying about if I will get up on time. When possible I take a 20-minute power nap on plane rides or right before dinner after working the day. I also do power walks in the airports waiting for flights or layovers. It keeps the circulation going! ????Beauty products you never travel without? La Mer skin care; Pantene Age Defying hair products; my favorite perfume -- DIVA; and my trusty make up case with foundation, blush, eye shadow/liner and two lipsticks. Finally La Mer lip balm is the best. ????What are you tips for keeping relationships with kids/spouses/partners healthy when you're always on the road? I speak to my husband every night -- no matter where I am. I try to catch him right before he has dinner and usually it's right after I have had dinner; we typically are on 3-hour different time zones -- he is west and I am east. Even when I travel west we stick to this routine or I catch him right before bed. I always spoke to my two boys every night when I traveled all through my career. I found when they were teens they would talk more to me on the phone each night I was away than when I would come home! ????What's your favorite airport to kill time in? I loved the United Airlines Denver terminal because for 15 years they had a great women's clothing store where I could do a lot of damage in a half hour! It closed last year so I am still in mourning. I spend most of my time at JFK or SFO -- both have continued to upgrade their services but United JFK has a great first-class lounge so I hang out there for the majority of my time in the airport. Jessica Herrin ????Title: Founder and CEO ????Company: Stella and Dot ????On the road: 6-7 weeks a year ????What's your go-to travel suitcase (or bag)? I'm a minimalist that likes to avoid checking at all costs. So I need two bags that carry it all -- The Stella & Dot Switch Bag is my perfect carry on tote and the basic black Samsonite roller bag that calls attention to the 'many bags look alike' warnings. I've often grabbed the wrong one when a gate check bag comes up. ????Two apps you can't travel without? Evernote, to capture any inspired thought that comes from a customer or from the world around me, and Facebook. ????How do you stay comfortable during long train/plane rides? Flying is a great uninterrupted way for me to focus on work, so my comfort comes from being sure my devices are charged and chargeable and I've got great music to listen to. Other than that, a wrap to keep me warm and a paperback or paper so I'm not idle during those tortuous 15 minutes of no electronics. ????Advice for combating jet lag? Honestly? Coffee and Ambien. Plus, I try to mentally only acknowledge the time zone I am in and get outside to take in the sun if my body still thinks its the middle of the night. ????Beauty products you never travel without? Bobbi Brown BB cream -- I love all in one. Lancome Definicils Mascara and Nars or Buxom lip gloss. ????What are your tips for keeping relationships with kids/spouses/partners healthy when you're always on the road? Skype and FaceTime are magic! We read bedtime stories together. My husband will even put me on Skype in the girls room and I gently nudge them along to get ready for school while he's in the shower. I'm in my hotel room working and simply shout out thinks like "hey - you can't wear those shoes" and "ok, go brush your teeth!" I also power pack my trips and get home to them as soon as I can. ????What's your favorite airport to kill time in? Even though it's my home base, I love Terminal 2 at SFO. Any extra time, and there are plenty of power outlets, great food, and a place to get a mani-pedi or massage. They even have a yoga room. I've never been it, of course, but it still makes me laugh walking by. So California, the home state I love. |
