Talk it out. When moving from one job to another or transitioning between bosses and departments you can easily get stuck with twice the work. You might be eager to start the new job, but the expert advises sitting down with the old and new bosses together to reach an agreement about how the transition will be handled. Who will take over your old role? What will your new job’s responsibilities entail? If you’re asked to take on work in addition to what you do now, ask for a priority list and find out who you will report to for the new responsibilities. 及时与上司沟通。当更换工作,或换到其他上司手下或其他部门时,你很容易被双倍工作压得不知所措。也许你渴望开始新工作,但专家建议你应当与新、旧上司坐到一起,就如何过渡工作达成共识。谁来接手你以前的职务?你的新工作需要你承担哪些责任?如果你被要求在现有工作之外额外承担任务,索要一张工作优先级列表,找出你应该向谁汇报新工作。 Understand the new rules.Just because you are still in the same company, doesn’t mean you will be playing by the same rules. Take the time to learn how things operate in your new work situation. Do not say “It’s easy to think, I know the company, and I’ve been here for 20 years”. It’s really important not to assume that it’s the same. While you handed in monthly reports and held monthly meetings in your old job, a new manager may expect you to report your progress weekly or meet more frequently. Be sure to ask about these details early on. And talk to colleagues about the particulars of the departmental culture. |
