解放军文职招聘考试谦逊是把双刃剑
大学时代,马克·赫德曾被一位老师提名竞争学生会主席。尽管他信心十足,但由于他在回答校方提问时表现得过于谦逊和谨慎,以致与这个职位失之交臂,且在毕业就业时受此影响,未能进入心仪的公司。
虽然马克最终以自己出色的能力被惠普公司聘用,但是他依旧觉得沮丧。他反思了许久,得出了一个结论—自己被所谓的“谦逊”迷惑。失去去了最好的机会。后来,马克凭着自己的能力,出任了惠普的CEO。
那天,董事会来电话,要他参加董事会议。马克觉得会上场景似曾相识。董事们有意让马克接任惠普的CEO,因为在产品宣传与销售问匙上,惠普遇到了难题。
同样一个问题:你有信心把惠普做得更好吗?
马克给出了与上一次不同的回答。他说:“这是毫无疑问的,至少我保证,情况不会像现在这么糟糕!”
事实上,通过考验的马克,表现出了极强的个人能力。自从他出任CEO后,惠普产品多面开花,通过筛选渠道,减少成本,加大宣传,经营业绩稳步增长。
在接受电视采访的时候,主持人问:“有人说,你的形象是儒雅,知性,睿智,谦逊的。的怎么看?”马克着重就“谦逊”谈了自己的见解。他认为,不恰当的“谦逊”是把双刃剑,往往会断了“谦逊者”的发展之路。
马克说:“要做到真正的谦逊,需要明白三点:
首先,谦逊不是自我否定,自我否定只能让你与机会擦肩而过并留下惋惜。
其次,谦逊就是把话说到你的能力值以下,比如你能考A,那么先肯定自己能考B+。
最后,谦逊不是在面对别人质疑.或者面对问题的时候说‘哦,我想我办不到’,而是懂得抓住机会。成功之后,面对别人的赞美时说:‘其实没什么,只要努力,每个人都能做到!”’
Modesty is a Double-edged Sword
In his university time, 马克·赫德 was nominated to campaign for the chairman of the Student Union. Tough very confident, he lost the chance for his over modesty and caution when answering questions. This had a bad influence on him when he graduated and seeked his job.
Still dismay, though he was appointed by 惠普公司 with excellent ability. He considered for a long time and then came to a conclusion----he was confused by the so----called modesty. Later, for his outstanding ability, he became the CEO.
The other day, the board called him to represent the board meeting. Mark felt the same scene as ever. The reason that the board let Mark e the CEO was that there were some problems in publicity and sale.
The same question: Are you confident to de better job for 惠普?
Then Mark gave the opposite reply than the last time. He said: “it is undoubted that I can promises. At least be better than now. ”
In fact, after trials of tests, Mark did an excellent job. Ever since his nomination, 惠普 company produced varies styles of product. Through selecting mediums, decreasing cost, pay attention to publicity, the company’s sales grew steadily.
When being interviewed, the holder asked: “Someone think you are gentle, knowledge, wise and modest. We would like to know your opinion.” Mark expressed his understanding on “modesty”. He insisted that unreasonable modesty is a double-edged sword, which may destroy his future.
He said that to be really modest, keep three points in mind:
Firstly, modesty is not to deny yourself, for it let you lose the chance and feel regret.
Secondly, modesty is to evaluate yourself below your ability umber. For instance, if you can get A, then be sure you can get B+.
Lastly, modesty is not to say “actually, everyone can do that so as you work had” to answer others’ praise.
