How to cope with yesmen

Have you ever had someone in your organization who was always agreeable? A type of person who always agrees with everyone else. 1..

We have most likely all met a yesman at one time or another. Yesmen are eager to please, but find it very difficult to voice their opinion. So what can you do as a leader to cope with (对付) them?

Talk to them. The first step is an honest and objective conversation about their behavior. __ 2._ Try to get them to see how they respond in these situations so they can start to see themselves objectively(客观地) as well.

___3. Start with a recent time when they agreed with a decision, and ask for their opinion. Keep asking "why?" or "how come?" Acknowledge their views and let them know that the rest of the team is waiting to hear what they say.

Find out why they always agree. It may be they are just very agreeable people. 4.__ Identify the causes and work with them to reduce the external (外部的) barriers to having their voice heard.

Tell them they need to disagree, constructively, when they have the next opportu- nity. When that time comes about, don't embarrass them by putting them on the spot. Instead, ask them what they think, avoid yes-no questions, and use "why" and "how come" questions to get their thoughts out there for the benefit of the team. Thank them for their ideas. 5.

A. Ask what their opinions are.

B. They should provide value to the organization.

C. Or they feel like they will be saying something stupid.

D. Even if all the ideas presented conflict with each other!

E. Sometimes the person does not realize that they agree with everything.

F. Yesmen are a challenge in any organization that values individual contributions.

G. This will build their confidence and allow them to continue doing what you have started in the future.

If you want to cook something quickly, you heat it from both sides. That’s what’s happening to the West Antarctic ice sheet(南极洲西部冰盖). A new study reveals that the area under the ice sheet is far hotter than previously thought, fed by an unexpected flow of geothermal energy(地热能). While the CO2 we send out heats the atmosphere above the continent, earth is melting us ice from below.

If you were to drill (钻) deep at some place on the continents, you would find that the temperature increases about 25℃ for every kilometer deep into the hole on average. Scientists call this the geothermal gradient(地热梯度). Until recently, no one had drilled deeply enough through the West Antarctic ice to determine the geothermal gradient underground. For the new study, researchers drilled all the way through the ice and into the mud. They found that the geothermal gradient was about 200℃, which is several times the global average on continents. Few predicted this result, although it had been showed that the earth below the West Antarctic ice is unusually hot.

Even with the new discovery, though, we still don’t know exactly where the heat is coming from. One interesting possibility is volcanoes, which are under the ice. As recently as 2013, scientists were still discovering volcanoes under the ice in the area, and there may be many more.

Some people say that these volcanoes, rather than manmade climate change, are responsible for melting the area’s ice. While it’s true that heat coming from within the earth, including heat related to volcanoes, makes the melting faster, it is just one contributor to the loss of the West Antarctic ice sheet---not the main cause. Today’s study could help us understand how the whole system, including global warming, is melting the ice.

1.What’s happening to the West Antarctic ice sheet?

A. The ice sheet is getting hotter and hotter.

B. It is heated from below rather than from above.

C. The ice sheet is producing a new kind of energy.

D. It is melting from both sides.

2.What can be learned from the second Paragraph?

A. It was the first time that researchers had tried to measure geothermal gradients.

B. The geothermal gradient showed where the heat came from.

C. The result was beyond the researchers’ expectations.

D. Researchers never knew the earth under the West Antarctic ice was hot.

3.The author would probably agree that ___.

A. the new discovery is unhelpful without a certain conclusion

B. no volcano has been found to support the researchers’ idea

C. volcanoes are the most important reason for the melting of the ice

D. global warming is surely one reason for the melting of the ice

4.What’s the main idea of the passage?

A. The West Antarctic ice sheet is in danger.

B. Researchers are trying to stop global warming.

C. The West Antarctic ice sheet’s melting will bring terrible consequences.

D. It has been known how to stop the melting of the West Antarctic ice sheet.
