Dear World:

My son starts school today. It's going to be strange and new to him for a while. And I wish you would sort of treat him gently.

You see, up to now, he's been king of the house. He's been boss of the backyard. I have always been around to repair his wounds, and to ease his feelings.

But now things are going to be different.

This morning, he's going to walk down the front steps, wave his hand and start on his great adventure that will probably include wars and tragedy and sorrow.

So, World, I wish you would sort of take him by his young hand and teach him the things he will have to know. Teach him but gently, if you can. Teach him the wonders of books. Give him quiet time to ponder(思考) the eternal mystery of birds in the sky, bees in the sun, and flowers on the green hill. Teach him it is far more honorable to fail than to cheat. Teach him to have faith in his own ideas, even if everyone else tells him they are wrong. Teach him to sell his physical strength and brains to the person who offers the most money, but never to put a price on his heart and soul. Teach him to close his ears to a criminal gang (团伙) ...and to stand and fight if he thinks he's right. Teach him gently, World, but don't coddle him, because only the test of fire makes fine steel.

How to get along with your boss

In your career, you may have to report to a manager, the person you call boss.

1. Here are some tips to help you develop an effective relationship with your boss.

The first step is to develop a positive relationship with your boss. Relationships are based on trust. 2. Keep timetable commitments (承诺). Never blindside (偷袭) your manager with surprises that you could have predicted or prevented. Keep him/her informed about your projects and interactions with the rest of the organization.

Tell the boss when you’ve made an error or one of your reporting staff has made a mistake. 3. Lies or efforts to mislead always result in further stress for you as you worry about getting “caught”. Communicate daily or weekly to build the relationship.

Recognize that success at work is not all about you. 4. Identify your boss’s areas of weakness or greatest challenges and ask what you can do to help. What are your boss’s biggest worries? How can your contribution reduce these concerns? Understand your boss’s goals and priorities. Place emphasis in your work to match her priorities. Think in terms of the overall success of your department and company，not just about your narrow world at work.

5. Does he/she like frequent communication, autonomous employees, requests in writing in advance of a meeting, or informal conversation as you pass in the halfway? Your boss’s preferences are important. The better you understand them, the better you will work with him/her.

If you sometimes disagree and occasionally experience an emotional reaction, don’t hold hatred. Don’t make threats about leaving. Disagreement is fine. You need to come to terms with the fact that your boss has more authority and power than you do.

A. Do what you say you’ll do.

B. Value your boss’s time.

C. Cover-ups (掩饰) don’t contribute to an effective relationship.

D. Identify what he/she values in an employee.

E. Put your boss’s needs at the center of your universe.

F. The relationship with your boss is important for your work success and career progress.

G. Learning how to read your boss’s moods and reactions is also helpful.
