三招學會自我表揚：職業形象大提升大綱

It's normal to want to promote yourself and take credit where it's due.
工作中，想推銷自己並受到老闆的賞識是正常的。

But tooting your own horn too much — and too obviously — can hurt your professional image.
但是牛皮吹得太大太明顯的話，反而會損害到你的職業形象。

The cleverest self-promoters know that, and have an ingenious way of subtly making themselves look good: by praising others.
最聰明的自薦者深諳此道，所以他們採用一種獨特的方式巧妙提升自我形象——表揚他人。

In a recent post on LinkedIn, leadership expert Jeff Haden writes that the best way to strengthen your personal image is by helping those around you succeed.
LinkedIn網近期的一篇文章中，領導專家傑夫-哈登寫道，提升自我形象的最好方法就是幫助你周圍的人成功。

Haden suggests three counterintuitive ways to accomplish this.
哈登建議採用三種非常規的方法實現這一目標。

First, he says, let others get the public glory. "Sure, maybe you really did do all the work," he writes. "It doesn't matter. Give someone else the glory."
首先，他寫道，讓別人接受大家的讚譽。“當然，可能你纔是那個做了所有的工作的人。沒關係。讓別人獲得榮譽。”

When your team shines, others remember that you're the one who helped lead them there.
當你的團隊大放異彩時，大家會記住你纔是那個引領他們攀上榮譽之巔的人。

Second, Haden says to talk about a customer's success rather than the company's.
第二，哈登認爲應該多討論顧客的成功而不是公司的。

"The fact that your customers are such smart and savvy people reflects well on you," he explains.
他解釋說：“如果你的顧客都是那麼聰明，那麼有見識，那麼這點會讓你的形象大大提升。”

Third and finally, he recommends letting employees lead meetings about projects they completed.
最後，他建議讓員工在某項計劃完成時自己主持會議。

Introduce the item by saying "Lena is going to walk us through the process," and then hand the reins to her.
你可以這樣介紹“莉娜將跟進整個項目進程”，然後把主導權交給她。

"Everyone already knows you're in charge; the fact that your employees get things done reflects well on you," he adds.
他還補充說：“每個人都知道你是指揮者。你的員工在你的領導下完成了項目，這點對你的形象非常有利。”
