Want to get on your bosss good side and do better at work? One way is to understand her perspective, and the perspective of a manager can be very different from yours as an employee. Here are eight things your boss probably wishes you knew.
你想要討老闆的歡心讓你的工作扶搖直上嗎？一個辦法就是去了解老闆的期望。但是老闆對你的期望可能和你自己以為的相差甚遠。以下八件事就是老闆希望你能知道的。
1. Bring solutions, not just problems. If you just bring your manager problems, she has to solve them, but think how much more valuable youd be （and how much time youd save her） if instead, you brought proposed solutions. Even if your manager wants to respond differently, having a proposal to react to is easier than having to start figuring it out from scratch.
1. 帶來解決方案，而不僅僅帶來問題。假如你只是給你的經理帶來問題，她就需要去解決它們，但你想象一下，假如你帶來的是已經想好的解決方案，你該會變得多有用（給她也節省了多少時間啊）。即使你的經理想要一些不同的答案，有現成的方案來供她選擇也比從一團亂麻中理出頭緒要簡單得多。
2. Everything has a trade-off. When youre responsible for only one piece of the pie, its easy to think that solutions are obvious. But when youre responsible for the whole pie, it gets far more complicated; decisions that seem easy for you may require a trade-off somewhere else. For instance, you might not understand why your manager wont approve your request for new software. But approving your request might mean that she has to cut her budget somewhere else, plus explain to a different employee why she cant have the training course she requested.
2. 每件事都有代價。當你只是對事情的一部分負責時，很明顯想出解決的方案是很容易的。但假如你需要對整件事情負責呢？事情就變得複雜起來：那些對你來說看起來很容易的決定往往需要你付出些代價。比如說，你或許無法理解為什麼你的`經理不能同意你對於新軟體的要求，然而假如同意了你的要求或許就意味著她要在別的地方減少預算，為此還要向另一位員工解釋為什麼她沒能得到她所要求的培訓課程。
3. Your attitude matters almost as much as your work. Managing a team can be exhausting, and its significantly harder when a team member is resistant to feedback, difficult to work with or just plain unpleasant. Even if your work is good, many good managers will refuse to tolerate poor attitudes, and you could find yourself without a job or hampered significantly in your current one.
3. 你的態度和你的工作表現幾乎一樣重要。管理一個團隊可能會非常累人，而當其中的一位團隊成員拒絕作出反饋、難以共事又或是總是抱怨不滿時，事情就會變得更加困難。即使你的工作表現很好，但很多優秀的經理仍然不會容忍你糟糕的態度，你甚至會因此丟掉工作或是在現在的工作中受到極大的阻礙。
