A is for always getting to work on time.
B is for being extremely busy.
C is for the conscientious(勤勤恳恳的) way you do your job.
You may be all these things at the office, and more. But when it comes to getting ahead, experts say, the ABCs of business should include a P, for politics, as in office politics.
Dale Carnegie suggested as much more than 50 years ago hard work alone doesn’t ensure career advancement. You have to be able to sell yourself and your ideas, both publicly and behind the scenes. Yet, despite the obvious rewards of engaging in office politics—a better job, a raise, praise—many people are still unable—or unwilling—to play the game.
People assume that office politics involves some manipulative (工于心计的) behavior, says Deborah Comer, an assistant professor of management at Hofstra University. But politics derives from the word polite . It can mean lobbying and forming associations. It can mean being kind and helpful, or even trying to please your superior, and then expecting something in return.
In fact, today, experts define office politics as proper behavior used to pursue one’s own self - interest in the workplace. In many cases, this involves some form of socializing within the office environment—not just in large companies, but in small workplaces as well.
The first thing people are usually judged on is their ability to perform well on a consistent basis, says Neil P. Lewis, a management psychologist. But if two or three candidates are up for a promotion, each of whom has reasonably similar ability, a manager is going to promote the person he or she likes best. It’s simple human nature.
Yet, psychologists say, many employees and employers have trouble with the concept of politics in the office. Some people, they say, have an idealistic vision of work and what it takes to succeed. Still others associate politics with flattery (奉承), fearful that, if they speak up for themselves, they may apppear to be flattering their boss for favors.
Experts suggest altering this negative picture by recognizing the need for some self-promotion.
It is the author’s view that_____.
选项
A、speaking up for oneself is part of human nature
B、self - promotion does not necessarily mean flattery
C、hard work contributes very little to one’s promotion
D、many employees fail to recognize the need of flattery
答案
B
解析
主旨题。倒数第二段说:许多人不能够很好地领会权术的概念,有些人太理想化,认为付出很多就会成功(what takes to succeed),而另一些人却把权术与奉承联系起来,担心如果为自己讲话,好像他们是为了得到恩惠在奉承老板。接着在最后一段作者指出:通过认识到自我推荐是个人发展所必需的这一事实来改变这种消极的看法。显然,作者认为自我推荐并不意味着奉承。故B项为正确答案。
