Willkommen zurück zu Business Englischkenntnisse 360 für die heutige Lektion, wie Sie sicherstellen können, dass Sie einen großartigen Jahresendbonus erhalten.
Wenn ich „Bonus,” I’m not talking about a Christmas card from the boss with a $20 Geschenkgutschein für Starbucks. Ich spreche nicht von Zeichen der Wertschätzung. Ich spreche von einem schönen, fetten Jahresendbonus, der besagt, dass Ihr Arbeitgeber der Meinung ist, dass Sie eine Investition wert sind.
In unserer letzten Lektion, Ich habe darüber gesprochen, wie Sie Ihren Wert durch Ihre Arbeitsweise demonstrieren können. Heute, Ich möchte mich nicht nur auf Ihren Ansatz konzentrieren, aber auf die Arbeit selbst. Wenn alles gesagt und getan ist, Es ist Ihre Leistung, die über alles geschätzt wird. Wie können Sie das zeigen??
Willkommen zurück zu Business Englischkenntnisse 360 für die heutige Lektion, wie Sie sich einen großartigen Jahresendbonus sichern können.
Wir alle wissen, dass Geld nicht der einzige Anreiz am Arbeitsplatz ist, aber es ist sicher eine effektive. Nothing beats a nice cheque at the end of the year to say “thanks for all the hard work.” That bonus can help us enjoy the holiday season more, und fühlen Sie sich besser, wenn Sie nach dem Urlaub wieder ins Büro gehen.
Damit, Wie können Sie sicherstellen, dass Sie diesen Bonus erhalten?? Oder wie können Sie Ihren Bonus erhöhen?? Gut, Als erstes, wenn du gerade angefangen hast darüber nachzudenken, Sie könnten Pech haben. Sie können sich nicht nur im Dezember an Ihren Chef wenden und erwarten, belohnt zu werden. Wenn Sie nach einer einfachen Lösung für harte Arbeit suchen, Es tut mir leid, Sie zu enttäuschen.
Und wenn Sie denken, dass Sie einen Bonus verdienen, weil Sie jeden Tag pünktlich aufgetaucht sind und sich nie früh zurückgezogen haben, dann denke nochmal nach. Wenn Sie bei McDonalds Hamburger machen, dann bezahlt Sie Ihr Arbeitgeber für Ihre Zeit, in Form eines Lohnes. Aber in professionellen Umgebungen, wo Menschen Gehälter verdienen, Es ist nicht Ihre Zeit, für die Ihr Arbeitgeber bezahlt. Es ist Ihr Wert.
Willkommen zurück im Business English Pod für die heutige Lektion resolving conflictin the workplace.
Conflict happens. There’s no way around it. But not everyone has the same attitude toward conflict. Some people run from it, or refuse to even admit it exists. Other people acknowledge it but simply hope it goes away on its own. And some people are able to approach it with confidence, dealing with it openly and honestly.
The first step in conflict resolution is for the people involved to sit down and try to work it out themselves. But that doesn’t always work, and in many cases it takes a third party to attempt to find solutions. That third party might be a peer, oder Kollege. But mostly it’s a manager or leader. Eigentlich, helping mediate conflict between people is an important function of a manager.
Effective mediation is a tricky business. You need to help people have the open and honest conversations that they might not be able to have on their own. Part of that involves ensuring each person has their turn to speak. One of your aims, natürlich, is common understanding, so you may need to encourage empathy and confirm understanding at different steps along the way.
As a conflict mediator, your ultimate aim it to find a solution. Das zu tun, you’ll want to have people agree on a common goal. You may also ask them to focus on positive actions, rather than negative ones. Positive actions are more solution-focused.

Welcome back to Business English Pod for today’s lesson on how to resolve conflict.
Just say the word “conflict” and people usually get uncomfortable. Most people want to avoid conflict at all costs. But conflict in the workplace is unavoidable. Eigentlich, it’s a natural result of people working in groups. And in a healthy organization, conflict can actually be constructive. It can lead to personal and professional growth, as well as new ideas and ways of working.
But those positive results of conflict can only be realized if people are willing to face conflict directly and honestly. If people ignore conflict, or refuse to face it, then bad things can happen. Unresolved conflict leads to toxicity and poisoned relationships or teams. Given enough time, it can destroy a company.
So if you experience conflict with someone at work, what can you do? Gut, the first step involves trying to work things out one-on-one. You need to talk, privately and openly. And when you do, it’s important to focus on the impact of the other person’s behavior and to try to identify the root cause of the problem. Gleichzeitig, you should consider the other sides views and ask them about their perceptions, rather than just focusing on yours. Stick to the facts as you try to resist arguing, and always look for possible solutions.
