Task 2



Directions: This task is the same as Task 1. The 5 questions or unfinished statements are numbered 41 to 45.



Your
boss
holds
your
future
prospects
in
his
hands.
Some
bosses
are
hard
to
get
along
with.
Some
have
excellent qualifications but no idea when it comes to dealing with people. Of course, not all bosses are like that.



The relationship you have with your boss can be a major factor in determining your rise up the career ladder.
Your boss is not only your leader, he is also the person best equipped to help you do the job you are paid to do. He
can inform you of company direction that may affect your professional development.



Your
boss
also
needs
you
to
perform
at
your
best
in
order
to
accomplish
his
objectives.
He
needs
your
feedback in order to provide realistic and useful reports to upper management. But how does this help you establish
a meaningful working relationship with your boss?



The key is communication. Learn and understand his goals and priorities (
优先的事
). Observe and understand
your boss
’
s work style. If he has not been clear with his expectations, ask! Likewise, ask for feedback and accept
criticism gracefully. And if he understands that you do not view your job as just something to fill the hours between
9 and 5, he may be more likely to help you.



In short, getting along with your boss requires getting to know his likes and dislikes and learning to work with
his personality and management style.

A) bosses are hard to deal with



B) bosses have good character



C) bosses determine your career future

confident
that
