要鼓勵協作,弄得簡單些

合作需要時間和資源。所以,如果你想要人們一起合作,你必須盡可能簡化工作。例如,你可以使用Google DriveDropboxSkype等簡單的工具讓人們可以共享文件與通信交流。
你也可以讓作業流程簡化,例如制定固定開會的時間,與指定任務分配,例如是誰負責行政工作、誰負責整理工作進度報告。

To encourage collaboration, make it easier
Cooperation requires time and resources. So, if you want people to work together, you must try to simplify the work. For example, you can use Google Drive, Dropbox, Skype and other simple tools that people can share files and communicate.
You can also simplify the workflow, such as setting a fixed meeting time, assigning tasks, such as who is responsible for administrative work and who is responsible for preparing work progress report.

以承認不確定狀態,來幫助團隊度過難關

不確定的狀態,無論是由於公司的組織重整,或是由於政治動蕩,都會令人不舒服。當人們處於混亂而不可預測的狀態是,很難專注在工作上,並且容易陷入惡性的循環。
如果你的員工因為關切到他們未來的發展,而無心于工作,那麼,不妨直接承認這樣的不確定狀態確實存在,而非故意忽視它。即使你的意圖是讓人們集中注意力,控制他們的情緒,期望員工也這麼做,這是很危險的。人們可能會開始感到不安,表達他們的感受或擔憂。你的一些團隊成員可能會環顧四周,想知道他們的同事在睡眠中如何保持鎮定。
你不妨公開承認你理解大家的感受,然後討論在這樣的局面中,每個人應該如何共同度過難關,如何能夠保持生產力。

To help the team overcome the difficulties by admitting uncertainty
A state of uncertainty, whether it is due to the company's reorganization, or because of political unrest, will be uncomfortable. When people are in a chaotic and unpredictable state is difficult to concentrate on work, and easy to fall into a vicious cycle.
If your employees because of concern to their future development, and no work, then, can directly recognize true uncertainty, rather than deliberately ignore it. Even if your intention is to allow people to concentrate, to control their emotions, expect employees to do so, it is very dangerous to people. May start to feel uneasy, express their feelings or concerns. Some of your team members may look around, want to know their colleagues in sleep to keep calm.
You can openly admit that you understand how you feel, and then discuss how each person should overcome the difficulties and maintain productivity in such a situation.

有的時候,應付不一致的意見,最好置之不理

有些人可能會告訴你,解决工作不一致的唯一辦法,就是馬上去解决問題。但這並不總是正確的。有時候,你最好的選擇是什麼也不做-讓人們自己去評論,或者乾脆走開。
什麼都不做不是不管它。如果你沒有精力去準備或進行一次艱難的談話,或者你懷疑對方可能不願意進行建設性的討論,這是一個明智的選擇。
讓問題繼續存在,有的時候可以讓你和別人的關係保持暫時的穩定。但是如果你暫時不理會,而不考慮彼此確實存在的分歧,有可能這問題你以後更容易爆發,或者你會開始對你的對手採取消極的應對。
只有你確實能夠解決問題,讓衝突消弭,你才能安心地什麼都不做。

Sometimes, the best way to deal with inconsistent opinions is to ignore them
Some people may tell you that the only way to solve work in-consistence, is to go to solve the problem. But this is not always true. Sometimes, the best choice is what you don't do - let people to comment on, or simply walk away.
Do nothing doesn’t means to ignore it. If you don't have energy to prepare or a difficult conversation, or you may not willing to discuss other suspected constructive, it is a wise choice.
Let the problem continues to exist, sometimes can make your relationships with others to maintain temporary stability. But if you do not care, without considering the existence of differences between each other, it is possible for you more easily after the outbreak, or you will start to your opponent to take negative coping.

Only you can solve the problem and let the conflict go away, you can feel free to do nothing.

拒絕一些會議,讓自己專注于策略思考上

上班工作,似乎就是要逼自己必須隨時跟上形勢,要不斷的接收郵件、接聽電話、害怕自己沒有被通知去參加會議,怕自己沒有聽到公司內老闆或是其他主管最新的主流意見,怕自己被邊緣化了。
但是,如此一來,你整天就被埋在吸收與篩選資訊上,沒有讓自己的腦袋用來做策略思考,甚至不能專心完成幾件可以被老闆稱譽、讓你足以聲名大噪的重要項目上。
你還不如在一周中,拒絕參加幾個會議,將你的工作日曆畫出完全屬於你的時間段。
用這些屬於你自己的時間段,用來集中注意力,做高層次的工作,如寫作,或是做能夠讓工作向前推進。

You can temporarily stop receiving emails, as far as possible not to answer the phone, do not have to browse the web. Let your mind immersed in let you find your own reality is spirit, capable of great originality!

新到任主管,多問多打聽

當你管理一個團隊時,你的策略和目標必須與你上級老闆的優先順序相一致。
如果你不完全瞭解你的團隊的工作是如何適應大局的,那麼可以考慮一下,安排與能闡明公司戰略目標的人進行一系列的對話。
當然,從你的老闆開始,也要與組織中的其他領導人交談,包括同輩人和下層人。
問問自己:誰在公司工作了很長時間?誰與當前的領導緊密合作?誰最近有和我一樣的經歷,從別的公司轉移過來?
你可以說:“我聽到你說,創新是我的團隊的優先事項。你想看我們的焦點在哪裡?“

Be a new manager, ask more
When you manage a team, your strategy and goals must be aligned with your boss's priorities.
If you don't fully understand how your team works to adjust the overall situation, consider a series of conversations with people who can clarify the company's strategic goals.
Of course, starting with your boss, you should also talk to other leaders in the organization, including peers and lower class.
Ask yourself: Who has worked for a long time in the company? Who is working closely with the current leaders? Who has recently had the same experience as I have and transferred from other companies?

對於衝突,你選擇面對它?還是逃避它?

當衝突發生的時候,人們會有兩種不同的態度:有人逃避,有人設法面對并予以解決。
逃避者會躲開,甚至假裝不知道雙方的不同意見。他們可能被認為是重視與同事間的人際之間的和諧。
面對衝突者,會積極介入衝突,甚至會挑起衝突。他們選擇直接面對,并誠實表達。
沒有哪一種態度是比較好的。你的態度選擇要看很多不同的情境,包含你過去面對衝突的經驗,以及你所處的團隊的組織文化,組織規範,甚至是性別的行為模式。
了解你所處的情境,可以讓你做出有自覺的選擇來面對衝突。例如,如果你選擇作為逃避者,你的直覺行為可以讓你忽略困難的局面。
但是,了解你自己的行為傾向,也可以讓你克服對衝突的抗拒態度。

For conflict, do you choose to face it or avoid it?
When conflicts occur, people will have two different attitudes: someone to escape, someone to try to face and solve.
The escapist will escape, or even pretend not to know the difference between two sides. They may be considered to care about harmony among colleagues.
In the face of the conflict, they will actively intervene in the conflict, and even provoke conflict. They choose to face directly, and honest expression.
What kind of attitude is good? Your attitude to look at many different situations, including your past experience in the face of conflict, and your organizational culture, organizational norms, even sex behavior.
Knowing where you are can allow you to make conscious choices to confront conflicts. For example, if you choose to be an escapist, your intuitive behavior can allow you to ignore the difficult situation.
But knowing your own behavior can also help you overcome your resistance to conflict.
