微软总裁萨蒂亚纳德拉给您的职业建议

　　Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella’s No. 1 tip for career success—if you don’t do this, ‘you can’t grow’
　　纳德拉从没想过有一天他会领导全世界最大最强的科技公司之一，#微软#。他纯粹只是喜欢在#微软#上班而已，很简单。
　　Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella never expected to lead one of the world’s largest, most powerful tech companies — he was just excited to work there, period.
　　他于1992 年加入微软，当时只是一名普通的年轻工程师。22年之后，即2014年，他成为了微软的第三任首席执行官。
　　Nadella joined Microsoft as a young engineer in 1992 and, after a 22-year climb up the corporate ladder, became the company’s third CEO in 2014.
　　55岁的纳德拉上周在接受领英总裁的采访时说：＂我清楚地记得走进微软 22 号大楼时我的心情，我认为这是我能够得到的地球上最伟大的工作，我很满足了。＂
　　＂I remember distinctly walking into building 22 at Microsoft thinking that’s the greatest job on Earth I [could] have and I don’t need anything more,＂ Nadella, 55, told LinkedIn CEO Ryan Roslansky in an interview published last week.
　　他说，他的长期职业规划中从来没想过要当总裁。
　　Becoming CEO was ＂not even a thought＂ in his long-term career plan, Nadella said.
　　他认为自己不是那种有高瞻远瞩的人，他只是在其位谋其事，专注于自己的工作，尽量把自己的职责做到最好。他在微软的几十年里学到的最重要的一课，也即是他要给您的最佳职业建议，其实很简单，就是不要总想着等我换了工作去下一个岗位我就会把事情做到最好。
　　Instead of being forward-minded, Nadella says he was focused on excelling in the role he had at the time. One of the most important lessons he learned in his decades at Microsoft — and his ＂best career advice＂ — is simple: ＂Don’t wait for your next job to do your best work.＂
　　在我为微软工作的 30 年里，我从来没有想过我现在做的事情是为去下一个工作做准备的。我觉得我现在做的事情就是最重要的。 这是我的真心感受。
　　＂There was never a time where I thought the job I was doing, all through my 30 years of Microsoft, that somehow I was doing that as a way to some other job,＂ he explained. ＂I felt the job I was doing there was the most important thing. I genuinely felt it.＂
　　他建议千万不要将当前的工作视为实现职业目标的障碍，而应将其视为展示您对工作的热情、负责和乐于学习的机会。
　　Instead of viewing your current job as an obstacle to achieving your career goals, Nadella recommends looking at it as an opportunity to demonstrate your enthusiasm and commitment to work, as well as your willingness to learn.
　　纳德拉的职业生涯的确就是这样的一个很好的例子，他的建议和他对工作的态度比任何一个五年职业规划都能更快地让您得到晋升或加薪。
　　Nadella’s career is a prime example of how this attitude can put you on the fast track to a promotion or pay raise sooner than any five-year plan can.
　　在微软任职期间，纳德拉总是调整自己来适应不同的合作团队和部门，并及时跟进快速变化的科学技术。 他领导过微软的一些复杂产品的研发，包括必应和Xbox实时游戏。
　　Throughout his tenure at Microsoft, Nadella had to constantly adapt depending on the teams he worked with and the pisions he managed, all while keeping pace with fast-changing technologies. He led the development of some of Microsoft’s complex products, including Bing and Xbox Live.
　　纳德拉还 补充说，如果您没有把自己的成长归功于正在从事的工作，那么您永远无法成长。
　　＂You cannot grow if you don’t think your growth comes because of what you’re doing,＂ he added.
　　对于有些人在工作中出现困惑的情况，或找不到工作的意义，纳德拉也有一些建议。
　　If you’re feeling stuck at work or struggling to find meaning in your job, Nadella has advice for that, too.
　　他在 2018 年 5 月接受 CNBC 采访时说，在他 30 多岁时，他与北达科他州现任州长有过一次谈话，这次谈话让他认真思考了自己在微软的目的。
　　During his 30s, a conversation with Doug Burgum, the current governor of North Dakota, made him think about his purpose at Microsoft, he said in a May 2018 interview with CNBC.
　　州长指出，必须想清楚我们工作的深层意义，这很重要，因为我们每天进进出出一家公司，在它上面花了那么多时间，我们不能把这份工作看成是一个简单的交易。
　　Burgum pointed out the importance of thinking about a deeper meaning to work, one that’s more than transactional, since we spend so much time at our jobs.
　　纳德拉也由此反问自己：＂我为什么待在微软？ 是什么让我日复一日激情四射地在微软工作？＂
　　It led Nadella to ask himself: ＂Why am I at Microsoft? What is it that gives me the energy at Microsoft, day in and day after?＂ he told CNBC’s Jon Fortt.
　　他说他自己的工作动力来自于好奇心、热爱创意，以及将其转化为影响力的能力。
　　That motivation came, he said, from ＂curiosity, a love of ideas, and the ability to translate that into impact.＂
　　您也可以试着问一下自己同样的问题，评估评估您的工作是否能发挥您的热情，是否能达到您希望给这个世界带来的影响。
　　Asking yourself those same questions about your job and company can help you evaluate if your job is aligned with your passions and the impact you want to have on the world.
