There are types of people who can grow their careers fastest, that’s true. Do you want to be one of them? So today, we invite Scott Trezise, executive vice president of Human Resources at CenturyLink, to answer the question: Looking back, what advice would you give your younger self about career development?
Scott Trezise:
The first advice I would give my younger self would be to work hard and to work smart. For generations, people have learned the lesson that good things come to those who work hard, and despite a world that changes faster every day, working hard remains a constant. In today’s world, we not only have to work hard, but we also have to work smart. We need to be able to leverage today’s advanced technologies to make ourselves as effective and efficient as possible.
To be intellectually curious requires courage—courage to distinguish oneself from the masses. My second piece of advice would be to be the one who asks the first question, be the one who challenges the status quo, be the one who volunteers for the toughest assignments, and be the one who has an opinion that’s different than others. Courage separates the few from the many. It can be scary, but it can also have a big payoff.
Third, I would say to be intellectually curious. Ask questions at every opportunity. In most situations, people love being asked questions because it gives them the opportunity to share their perspectives and impress those who are listening. By asking questions, you’re not only gaining knowledge, but you’re showing those around you that you want to learn. Intellectual curiosity challenges the status quo and creates a path for things to become bigger, better and faster.
Fourth, think analytically: Speak with facts and data. I remember one of my senior leaders telling me, "Scott, you are a great debater, but as long as I am boss, if you have an opinion and I have an opinion, my opinion wins." That was a great lesson. Anyone can have an opinion, but it’s data and facts that carry the most weight. Today, it is the analytical thinker who consolidates the massive amount of available data and synthesizes it into just a few compelling points who wins the day.
Finally, and most importantly, be optimistic. Those who can distinguish themselves by having a can-do attitude are those who grow their careers fastest. Those who believe they can get things done, get things done. Optimism not only breeds better individual results, but it makes all those involved more productive. Optimism simply makes work more fun, but the most important aspect of professional optimism is that it ends up bleeding over into one’s personal life. More optimism leads to a happier personal life and greater career success.
16. Who is invited to answer the question?
17. By what way can we work smart?
18. Why do people love being asked questions?
19. What type of people can distinguish themselves and grow their careers fastest?
选项
A、People who ask the first question.
B、People who speak with facts and data.
C、People who have a can-do attitude.
D、People who make their work productive.
答案
C
解析
演讲者给的第五条建议是职场新人要保持乐观,接着进一步解释道:抱着“我能行”态度的人(having a can-do attitude)会令自己脱颖而出,成就一番事业,C项复现了该处录音的关键原词,故为答案。A项“第一个提问的人”是第二条建议的内容,B项“用事实和数据说话的人”是第四条建议的内容,皆与问题无关。D项提到的“使工作更有成效”是乐观情绪带来的积极作用之一,答非所问,故不选D项。
