How to Take Initiative at Work: doing your homework
As many prosperous businesspeople already know,preparation is often the key to success in any endeavor1. You may be socially adept2 at work and have a pleasant enough personality, but you'll be more likely to convince others that your solution is the right one if you have the facts on your side. Doing your homework means taking the initiative to be prepared for any challenge: making a presentation,participating in a meeting, advancing a new idea to your boss, overhauling3 company processes and procedures. And doing your homework also means doing the basic research necessary to back up4 whatever claims you are making. One especially critical factor to consider is the culture of the organization you work for: each organization has its own set of values and norms5--the ideals that are held in high esteem6 by management and used as models for good employee behavior. For your initiatives to be successful, you have to tailor your approach accordingly7.Here are some suggestions:
1.Research your organization's culture by talking with your colleagues--both workers and managers--about what norms, values,and beliefs are most important to your organization and to the individuals who work within it. 2.Map out8 your organization's decision-making channels and take time to get to know each person in the channels you wish to influence. 3.Seek out and develop informal channels for influencing others in your organization, in a way consistent with the organization's culture. 4. Cultivate9 networks of coworkers who can support you in your efforts and influence others on your behalf. 5.As you prepare to influence others in your organization, be sure that your anticipated approach is consistent10 with the organization's culture.

如何在工作中積極主動：做好準備工作
正如許多成功的商業人士早已知道的，作好準備工作常常是使各種努力獲得成功的關鍵所在。你可能在工作中有很強的社交能力和討人喜歡的性格，但如果你能準備好事實依據，那么你說服他人接受你的方案的可能性就更大。做好準備工作意味著準備好面臨任何挑戰：進行陳述，參加會議，向老板提出新的想法，全面修訂公司的運作和程序，等等。做準備工作也意味著為支持你的觀點進行必要的基本調查。其中一個特別關鍵的因素是考慮你所在企業的文化。每個企業都有一套自己的價值觀和行為準則——即管理階層所推崇的、用以指導雇員行為的理念。為確保你的舉措成功，你需要對你的做法作相應的調整。這兒有幾點建議：
1.與你的同仁(同事和經理們)交談，了解什么樣的行為準則、價值觀和信念對你們公司以及公司的人員最為重要，從而調查出你所在公司的文化。2.弄清公司中制定決策的渠道并花些時間去認識這些渠道中你想影響的每個人。3.找出并開通影響公司中其他人的非正式渠道，但要與公司的文化相吻合。4.將能夠輔助你并代表你影響其他人的同事組成網絡。5.在你準備影響公司的其他人員時，你所采取的方式一定要與公司的文化相吻合。
