內容介紹
「席薇雅.安.惠烈挑戰了固有的『領袖風度是難以捉摸又與生俱來』的觀念。任何想要一展長才的人能夠從她實際、吸引人又充滿人道關懷的建議中獲益。」— 紐約大學法學教授吉野賢治
「這是一本渴望升遷的職場年輕人迫切需要的書。文憑已經不足以帶來職場發展機會,你也需要『領袖風度』—展現自信與可信度的能力」—蘇格蘭地區日報Aberdeen Press & Journal
面對一眾同事你能自信地展現自己的工作成果嗎?
全球最有影響力的商業思想家席薇雅.安.惠烈(Sylvia Ann Hewlett)繼備受讚譽的《讓世界看見你: 為什麼有些人永遠懷才不遇, 他卻可以脫穎而出》後,將在更新擴充的第二版中揭露快速變化的後疫情時代領導者必不可少的特質,掌握了這些原則才能找到職場晉升的秘訣。
近十年前,經濟學家席薇雅.安.惠烈(Sylvia Ann Hewlett)破解了「領袖風度(Executive Presence)」的密碼。翻譯成俄語、簡體中文、韓語等七種語言的第一版《讓世界看見你: 為什麼有些人永遠懷才不遇, 他卻可以脫穎而出》已經是商業叢書的經典,幫助了上萬名不分性別種族的專業人士在職場中快速升遷。採用了各行各業高階主管深度訪談、蒐集多年的數據資料,以及作者自身以女性的角度去觀察男性主宰的各行職場,惠烈提出「領袖風度」需要具備端莊的領導氣質、溝通能力以及適當的外在形象。Cisco執行長(Chuck Robbins)、美國教師退休基金會執行長(Thasunda Brown Duckett)等各界領導者更是將這本書推薦給任何想要做出一番事業的人。
新版的「領袖風度」進化了:十年間經歷的各種社會運動以及新冠肺炎疫情已經大大改變了管理階層面對的挑戰,並需要在後疫情時代中找到自己的定位。2022年,惠烈再度投入第二輪的研究,這次的研究對象改為新經濟產業(金融科技業、遊戲業、媒體業)的資深領導與30多歲的年輕主管,更是包含各行各業新一代的佼佼者的個案分析,歸納出2023年的領導者希望員工除了有高績效的工作能力,同時也要展現出誠懇與包容的態度,另外也重視能夠遠端領導小組以及操作社群媒體的能力。書中以許多個案說明各種性別、文化背景的讀者們的「領袖風度」都有不同的標準,並提供同事、主管、朋友們說不出口的實用建議。
不論在新、舊版中,任何人都可以學習「領袖風度」是惠烈最有力的訊息,我們不必要有賈伯斯一樣的溝通能力或蜜雪兒.歐巴馬一樣的體育才能,只需要跟隨書中提供的工具與策略,就能獲得「領袖風度」。
