    我在英國工作兩年多,最看不慣就是target/completion oriented的做事方式,因為有超過九成的結果都是要重頭再做。原因是英國人在大多數情況都是不求甚解地把表面弄得好像完成了,但背後的結構&原理錯漏百出,浪費人力資源成本

    同感!我觉得不是注重过程还是结果地问题,是只看表面还是重视实质的问题。我的体会是,对过程形式符合有一堆policy,SOP(很多时候远非唯一正确高效的方式)要求符合,但却对是否真的有效果真的对结果有帮助毫不在意。 只要表面形式符合,而且一定要求符合,不管实质如何。极其反感这一点。不知道是因为行业field的原因,还是国家普遍的工作风气

    Love your content. Suggestion for 16:40. 'Does anyone have any concerns?' and 'Are there any...' usually invite a 'yes or no' answer, those not inclined to speak usually won't respond. Although well intended, will mostly get head shakes all around (depending on the workplace culture of course).

    Hi Susie, thanks for the video, I have learned a lot. One small question though, when people speak in indirect communication style, are they genuinely open to all answers, or are they just looking for consensus? For example, when one said, 'would you be able to complete it by today' or 'do you think it would be alright to reschedule the meeting', are those negotiable?
