職(zhi)場英語(yu)：玩轉公(gong)司政治

　　Politics in the workplace can get vicious -- and we're not talking about the governmental kind. Rather, office politics, or how power and influence are managed in your company, will be a part of your career whether you choose to participate in them or not.

　　本(ben)文不(bu)是(shi)(shi)討論(lun)政府部門的那(nei)種(zhong)政治，而是(shi)(shi)辦公室里的那(nei)種(zhong)，或(huo)者(zhe)說(shuo)公司(si)內(nei)部權力和(he)影響(xiang)力的控制。職場(chang)政治可能很殘酷，不(bu)論(lun)你參不(bu)參與它都將成(cheng)為你事業的一部分(fen)。

　　Don't align yourself too strongly with just one group at the office because they may not hold power forever.

　　不(bu)要只和某一個群體緊密聯系;因為他們也(ye)許(xu)不(bu)會一直掌權。

　　Some workers say they don't want to get caught up in politics at work, but most experts argue that playing the game is crucial to your career success. By not getting involved, you may find your talents ignored, your success limited and you may feel left out of the loop, says Louellen Essex, co-author of "Manager's Desktop Consultant: Just-in-Time Solutions to the Top People Problems That Keep You Up at Night."

　　有些(xie)員工(gong)稱他(ta)們(men)不愿(yuan)卷(juan)入辦公室政治(zhi)中(zhong)，但是多數(shu)專家認為參(can)與到(dao)這場(chang)游戲中(zhong)對(dui)你(ni)的(de)事業(ye)成功(gong)至(zhi)關(guan)重要。《經理人(ren)辦公桌顧問：讓你(ni)夜(ye)不能寐的(de)人(ren)際問題的(de).及時(shi)解決(jue)方法》一書作者(zhe)之(zhi)一Louellen Essex認為，如果不參(can)與辦公室政治(zhi)，你(ni)的(de)才華(hua)可能會被(bei)(bei)忽(hu)略(lve)、成功(gong)受限，你(ni)也會感到(dao)被(bei)(bei)排斥在外。

　　"Politics get nasty when an employee is out for his or her personal gain alone," Essex says. "Think of playing office politics as a game of strategy through which you are able to get the resources and influence you need to accomplish your goals. Most often those who are diplomatic, respectful and build coalitions with effective people win."

　　Essex說：“當員(yuan)工只追求(qiu)個(ge)人利(li)益時政治(zhi)就骯臟起來。可(ke)以把(ba)參與(yu)職場政治(zhi)作為一個(ge)游戲策略;通過這個(ge)方式你能獲(huo)得(de)達成(cheng)目(mu)標所需要(yao)的(de)資源和影響(xiang)力。通常(chang)贏(ying)家都是那些老練的(de)、尊(zun)重別人的(de)、和有影響(xiang)力人士聯(lian)系緊密的(de)人。”

　　Here are Essex's nine tips to help you win at office politics and still gain other's respect.

　　下(xia)面(mian)就是Essex給(gei)出的(de)九條(tiao)建議，幫你(ni)在(zai)贏得(de)辦(ban)公室政治的(de)同時也獲得(de)別人的(de)尊重(zhong)。

　　1. Observe how things get done in your organization.

　　Ask some key questions: What are the core values and how are they enacted? Are short- or long-term results most valued? How are decisions made? How much risk is tolerated? The answers to these questions should give you a good sense of the culture of your organization.

　　問些(xie)關鍵問題：公司的核心價值是(shi)(shi)什么，是(shi)(shi)如何(he)體現的?最看重的是(shi)(shi)短(duan)期(qi)還是(shi)(shi)長期(qi)效果?決議是(shi)(shi)如何(he)制定的?可(ke)接受風險的程度有(you)多大?這些(xie)問題的答案可(ke)以讓你(ni)對企(qi)業文化有(you)個好的認(ren)識。
