    Move Up Without Moving On

    工作中不必辭職也可以上個(gè)新臺(tái)階

    Sometimes you have to leave yourcurrent job to ascend the corporate ladder—— but not always. Especiallyif you try a creative approach.

    有時(shí)候?yàn)榱诉_(dá)到另一個(gè)高度，你必須離開你當(dāng)前的工作，但也并非每次都要這樣做。尤其是當(dāng)你嘗試運(yùn)用一種創(chuàng)造性方法的時(shí)候。

    You don't have to change your job toachieve your career goals， taking on new assignments in your currentjob or outside your job can expand your leadership knowledge and skills—— and your marketability.

    你不用為了實(shí)現(xiàn)職業(yè)目標(biāo)而換工作。在你當(dāng)前的工作中或工作之外接受新的任務(wù)也可以擴(kuò)展你的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)知識(shí)和技能，還能提高你的市場(chǎng)拓展能力。

    The Center for Creative Leadership's McCauley believes you should look for developmental assignments， which she describes as "roles and activitiesthat provide opportunities for you to stretch and grow as a leader，" to advance. Use her three tips to identify developmental assignments in your personal and professional lives that will help you get ahead.

    創(chuàng)意領(lǐng)導(dǎo)中心的McCauley深信創(chuàng)造性的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)能力其中心就是你應(yīng)該尋找有發(fā)展?jié)撃艿娜蝿?wù)，她提出要采取這樣的任務(wù)，那就是“能夠給你機(jī)會(huì)讓你變強(qiáng)，成長為領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人的工作角色和活動(dòng)”。利用她提出的三個(gè)小技巧，來區(qū)分你的私生活和工作生活中的具有發(fā)展?jié)撃艿娜蝿?wù)，從而得到進(jìn)步。

    1. Add new dimensions to your current position.

    為你當(dāng)前的職位增加新的維度

    Think outside your formal job description when seeking out new challenges. The first place to start may be helping your coworkers jettison unpleasant tasks from their plates.

    在追求新的挑戰(zhàn)的時(shí)候不要將思想局限于你常規(guī)的工作描述。可以從幫助你的同事解決他們不愿意做的難題開始。

    "Consider moving a responsibility from someone else's plate to your own， trading tasks with another， or taking on a role or task that needs to be done but that no one currently'owns，'" Mc Cauley says. "In this way， you can expand your repertoire of skills and responsibilities while also helping out your colleagues."

    “考慮從別人那里承擔(dān)一份責(zé)任，與別人交換任務(wù)，或接受那些需要完成但目前沒人去做的任務(wù)或職位。這樣的話，你可以全面拓寬你的技能和責(zé)任，并且也可以幫到你的同事。”

    2. Use short-term assignments to fuel long-term growth.

    利用短期任務(wù)來促進(jìn)長期的增長

    The best way to ensure that you follow through on new tasks and responsibilities and vary your experiences is with short-term or temporary projects. One-offs allow you to learn while also giving you the freedom to pursue other opportunities as soon as each assignment is completed. This strategy will give you a more immediate sense of accomplishment. You'll learn whether or not you enjoy the work as well as improve your professional record for seeing things to fruition.

    確保你全過程跟進(jìn)一項(xiàng)新任務(wù)、承擔(dān)一份新責(zé)任以及積累不同經(jīng)驗(yàn)的最佳途徑是接受短期或臨時(shí)項(xiàng)目。一次性的任務(wù)不僅能讓你從中學(xué)到東西，你也可以在最短的時(shí)間內(nèi)完成任務(wù)去尋求其他的機(jī)會(huì)。這個(gè)方法會(huì)讓你獲得更多的直接成就感。你不僅可以知道自己是否喜歡這份工作，也可以因?yàn)橥瓿扇蝿?wù)而提高你的職業(yè)記錄。

    3. Pursue opportunities outside the office.

    在辦公室之外尋找機(jī)會(huì)

    Sometimes you have to think outside the box —— and the office. "You'll find plenty of leadershipresponsibilities in nonprofit， religious， social and professional organizations， schools， sport teams， and family life，" McCauley explains.

    有時(shí)候你要跳出固有的思維模式，也要把眼光放在辦公室之外。McCauley解釋說：“你會(huì)在非營利性機(jī)構(gòu)、宗教、社交網(wǎng)、專業(yè)協(xié)會(huì)、學(xué)校、運(yùn)動(dòng)隊(duì)和家庭中發(fā)現(xiàn)很多的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)職責(zé)。”

    In other words， opportunity is probably knocking at your door right this moment. You may find thatstepping up outside the office is easier， as there is less competition.Also， your efforts will be visibly appreciated， particularly if you're leading in a volunteer or non profit capacity.

    換句話說，機(jī)會(huì)可能就會(huì)在此刻降臨到你面前。你會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)加強(qiáng)辦公室之外的活動(dòng)是很容易的，因?yàn)楦?jìng)爭比較少。另外，別人也會(huì)感謝你做出的努力，特別是你在領(lǐng)導(dǎo)志愿者或非營利性機(jī)構(gòu)的時(shí)候。

    Continue to actively look for placesto expand your skill set on and off the clock. McCauley adds，"Challenging， real-life experiences are rich sources of growth and learning， but you don't have to wait for opportunities to present themselves."

    在工作中以及工作之外繼續(xù)積極地尋找其他的方法來拓展你的技能。McCauley補(bǔ)充說：“挑戰(zhàn)，實(shí)際的生活經(jīng)歷都是學(xué)習(xí)和成長的豐富資源，但是你也不必坐等機(jī)會(huì)的來臨。”
