女性在职场中应避免的5个错误

In today’s work world it’s critical to take note of how your brand is being perceived. The workplace has changed since the financial crash. It’s an environment where more and more is being asked of employees. As women, we have to assume the power position. Only we are in control of how much money we make, how far up the ladder we traverse, and ultimately whether we stay, go, or become the next CEO.
今日之职场，维护自己形象变得格外重要。工作环境在金融危机之后变化很大。在新的环境下，员工被问到的问题变得越来越多。身为女性，我们必须在强势地位上站稳脚跟。只有牢牢掌握我们的薪水、升职机会，才能决定最终是原地踏步、黯然离开还是成为下一任CEO。

Here’s a list of five simple and common missteps we must learn to dodge.
以下是我们必须学习避免犯下的5个简单又常见的过错：

1. Use your full name when meeting potential clients or new collegues.
1.使用全名会见潜在客户或新同事。

Beyonce, Adele, Shakira have the whole one name thing covered. The rest of us down here on earth have two names—use them when introducing yourself.
碧昂丝、阿黛尔、夏奇拉可以只用名来介绍自己。剩下的我们，就要把名和姓都用上——介绍自己时请使用全名。

2. There are no excuses for not completing work, getting to work on time, or making a mistake.
2. 拒绝任何理由来解释未完成工作、迟到或犯错。

Apologize and fix the problem. Everyone makes mistakes, if you’re not making any then you’re probably not going outside of your comfort zone and trying new things. The important thing is not to over-explain, just work to correct the issue and keep it moving.
请道歉，并解决问题。每人都会犯错，如果你不会犯错，也许你就从未走出过自己的舒适区、尝试过新事物。重要的是不要过度解释，只要努力改正错误，继续向前就好了。

3. Disregard # 2 when you haven’t made any mistakes.
3. 你没犯错时，请忽略上一点。

Women have a tendency to apologize in the workplace, even when we’ve done nothing wrong. While you may think you’re merely being polite, you’re actually hurting your image. Think about it: If you’re apologizing all the time, people may interpret this behavior as a sign of weakness or a lack of conviction. So, whether you’re closing a business deal or negotiating your compensation, don’t be apologetic.
女性更愿意在职场上道歉，尽管我们根本没做错什么。虽然你认为这会显得更礼貌，其实这样已经伤害了你的形象。认真想想：如果你无时不刻都在道歉，大家可能就会将其理解为软弱或缺乏信念的信号。所以，不管是在做生意，还是讨论补偿问题，你都不要歉意连篇。
