查看习题详情和答案>>B is for being extremely busy.
C is for the conscientious ( 勤勤恳恳的 ) way you do your job.
You may be all these things at the office, and more. But when it comes to getting ahead, experts say,
the ABCs of business should include a P, for politics, as in office politics.
Dale Carnegie suggested as much more than 50 years ago hard work alone doesn't ensure career
advancement. You have to be able to sell yourself and your ideas, both publicly and behind the scenes.
Yet, despite the obvious rewards of engaging in office politics-a better job, a raise, praise-many people
are still unable-or unwilling-to play the game.
People assume that office politics involves some manipulative (工于心计的) behavior, says Deborah
Comer, an assistant professor of management at Hofstra University. But politics derives from the word
'polite'. It can mean lobbying(游说) and forming associations. It can mean being kind and helpful, or even
trying to please your superior, and then expecting something in return.
In fact, today, experts define office politics as proper behavior used to pursue one's own self-interest
in the workplace. In many cases, this involves some form of socializing within the office environment-not
just in large companies, but in small workplaces as well.
The first thing people are usually judged on is their ability to perform well on a consistent basis, says
Neil P. Lewis, a management psychologist. But if two or three candidates are up for a promotion, each
of whom has reasonably similar ability, a manager is going to promote the person he or she likes best. It's
simple human nature.
Yet, psychologists say, many employees and employers have trouble with the concept of politics in
the office. Some people, they say, have an idealistic vision of work and what it takes to succeed. Still
others associate politics with flattery (奉承), fearful that, if they speak up for themselves, they may
appear to be flattering their boss for favors.
Experts suggest altering this negative picture by recognizing the need for some self-promotion.
B. the political views and beliefs of office workers
C. the interpersonal relationships within a company
D. the various qualities required for a successful career
B. honest and loyal to his company
C. get along well with his colleagues
D. avoid being too outstanding
B. They feel that such behavior is unprincipled.
C. They are not good at manipulating colleagues.
D. They think the effort will get them nowhere.
B. self-promotion does not necessarily mean flattery
C. hard work contributes very little to one's promotion
D. many employees fail to recognize the need of flattery
