12 How to Take Initiative at Work:taking Responsibility for your actions In any business situation, there comes a time to bring to a close1 deliberations2, discussions, and analysis3, and to take action. If you're not officially cast in a management role of your organization, taking independent action can be a scary proposition4--after all, it would be much easier to wait for your boss to not only make the decision but to take responsibility for it as well. However, today's organizations cannot afford to employ workers who simply wait to be told what to do.If your business is to thrive5 in the coming years,it needs workers who are willing not only to take chances6 and to make decisions but also to take actions and responsibility for their actions. Fortunately, most managers welcome such initiative7, and they are increasingly willing to give their employees more responsibility, autonomy8, and authority in their jobs. 　　We're all responsible for our own actions. This fundamental belief is the foundation for all individuals who take initiative and control of their lives. You can be a victim of your circumstances--complaining, feeling sorry for yourself 9,and believing that life is unfair--or you can rise above the negative elements of the current circumstances,be accountable10 for your action, and focus on what can be done to improve or cor rect the situation. Here are some tips for taking responsibility for your actions. 　　Do what you say you'll do. Be a person of your word11. Complete tasks in timely fashion. Don't rely on others to remind you of your commitments, and don't wait to begin a task until it is due. Have a system for staying on top of your commitments, and take the steps necessary to assure successful completion. If you can't fulfill a commitment, tell others prior to12 the deadline, or seek help to meet13 your schedule. Finish what you agree to take on. 　　Own up14 when you have made a mistake. If you blame another person, a system, or an event for something you did wrong, others will not trust you. Don't participate in the “ blame game,” even if coworkers play it. People will think more of you (and more quickly forgive you) if you are quick to claim a mistake you made and are eager15 to focus on a solution to the existing situation16. They will be suspicious of you and your intentions if you deny responsibility that turns out17 to be yours, and as a consequence18 may distrust what you say or avoid working with you. 　　Don't make excuses for yourself or for others. Deliver19 what you promise and expect others to do the same. Always strive20 to do your best and expect the best from others. If there is a problem, find out why it occurred and use the facts to develop a solution. Be responsive when following up on problems----especially with customers. Don't accept low- uality work from yourself or others. Don't rationalize21. 如何在工作中不斷進(jìn)?。焊易鞲耶?dāng) 在任何商務(wù)中，總會(huì)有這種時(shí)候：對(duì)商情進(jìn)行仔細(xì)考慮、商討、分析之后采取行動(dòng)。 如果你在公司未正式擔(dān)任管理職務(wù)，采取獨(dú)立的行動(dòng)可能會(huì)是一件可怕的事——畢竟等待 老板做決定并承擔(dān)責(zé)任要容易得多。然而，今天的企業(yè)已經(jīng)不愿雇用那些單等老板指令 行事的雇員。如果你的公司在未來的幾年內(nèi)要發(fā)展壯大，它需要雇員不僅愿意冒險(xiǎn)、決 斷，而且愿意采取行動(dòng)，并為之承擔(dān)責(zé)任。幸運(yùn)的是,大多數(shù)經(jīng)營者歡迎這樣的進(jìn)取精神 ，他們也越來越愿意讓雇員在工作中更多地承擔(dān)責(zé)任、當(dāng)家作主。 　　我們都應(yīng)為自己的行為負(fù)責(zé)。這一基本信念是所有不斷進(jìn)取、掌握自己命運(yùn)的人的 立足之本。你可以是你所在環(huán)境的犧牲品——抱怨、自憐、認(rèn)為生活是不公平的——但你也 可以在逆境中站起來，對(duì)自己的行動(dòng)負(fù)責(zé)，竭力改變或扭轉(zhuǎn)原來的不利局面。 　　以下是鼓勵(lì)你能夠敢作敢當(dāng)?shù)膸c(diǎn)建議： 　　說到做到。做個(gè)言行一致的人。按時(shí)完成任務(wù)，不要依賴他人提醒你的承諾，也不 要等到期限已至才開始一項(xiàng)工作。履行承諾要有一套辦法，并采取必要的步驟保證圓滿 完成。如果你不能完成你的承諾，要在到期之前告訴他人，或請(qǐng)求幫助以按時(shí)完成。一 定要完成你所答應(yīng)要做的事。 　　勇于承認(rèn)錯(cuò)誤。如果你做錯(cuò)了什么事而歸咎于他人、某個(gè)制度、或某一事件，那么 別人就不會(huì)信任你了。不要玩“推諉的把戲”，盡管有的同事那樣做。如果你及時(shí)承認(rèn)你 所犯的錯(cuò)誤并積極努力解決存在的問題，人們就會(huì)更加肯定你(也會(huì)更快地原諒你)。如 果你推卸本應(yīng)是你該承擔(dān)的責(zé)任，那你的同事就會(huì)懷疑你這個(gè)人以及你的動(dòng)機(jī)，最終可 能不再相信你的話，或避免與你共事。 　　不要給自己或給他人找借口。履行承諾，同時(shí)也這樣期望他人?？傄σ愿?，同 時(shí)也這樣期望他人。如果出了問題，那就要找出原因，并依據(jù)事實(shí)找出解決辦法。在解 決問題期間要積極應(yīng)對(duì)——特別是與客戶。不許自己或他人做低質(zhì)量工作。不要文過飾非 。 1.close[κλΕυσ]adj.嚴(yán)密的，仔細(xì)的，準(zhǔn)確的 2.deliberation[δι7λιβΕ5ρειΦΕ ν]n.[常作～s]商議 3.analysis[Ε5ν“λισισ]n.分析 4.proposition[7πρΧπΕ5ζιΦΕν]n.[俚](要對(duì)付的)事 5.thrive[Ωραιπ]vi.興旺，發(fā)達(dá)，繁榮，旺盛 6.takechances冒險(xiǎn)，投機(jī) 7.initiative[ι5νιΦιΕτιπ]n.首創(chuàng)精神，進(jìn)取心 8.autonomy[Χ:5τΧνΕμι]n.自主權(quán)，意志自由 9.feelsorryforoneself自己感到倒霉而憤憤不平 10.accountable[Ε5καυντΕβλ]adj.負(fù)有責(zé)任的 11.aperson(man)ofone’sword守信的人 12.priorto在…以前，先于 13.meet[μι:τ]vt.滿足(需要等)，達(dá)到(目標(biāo)等) 14.ownup(to)坦白地承認(rèn)，供認(rèn) 15.eager[5ι:⊥Ε]adj.熱切的，渴望的 16.theexistingsituation當(dāng)前形勢 17.turnout原來是，(最后)證明是 18.asaconsequence[5κΧνσικωΕνσ]因此，結(jié)果 19.deliver[δι5λιπΕ]vt.履行，實(shí)現(xiàn) 20.strive[στραιπ]vi.努力，力爭，力求 21.rationalize[5ρ“ΦΕνΕλαιζ]vi.文過飾非
