職場人年終總結：5個要求讓你收獲大回報Think back on the past calendar year. What would you like to see different in 2013? And what are the smallest possible changes that could bring those results? Here, five suggestions of potentially painless asks that could bring big rewards in 2013.
回顧過去的一年。在2013年你希望有什么變化？有沒有小改變可以給你帶來你想要的結果的？以下是五個無傷大雅的要求可能為你在2013年帶來巨大回報。
1.Flex Time 彈性工作時間
Will flexible scheduling make you more focused on the job? Save stress by letting you skip a traffic-ridden commute? Try asking for an hour or two of flexibility each week (but be sure to stress that you will not be cutting corners or missing meetings)—and watch your well-being soar。
靈活的時間是不是能讓你更專心工作？避開擁擠的上下班高峰是不是能減輕你的壓力？試著向公司要求每周有一兩個小時的靈活時間，但要確保自己不會因此偷懶或錯過會議。然后就等著自己快樂起來吧。
2.Meeting Invites 會議邀請
Ask to be included in bigger projects, meetings with executives for a surefire signal that you want to contribute more to the company and learn more in the process. There’s no cost associated with being a fly on the wall, and the exposure can be career-changing。
要求公司讓自己參與更大的項目，與公司高層一起開會，以此證明自己想要為公司做出更大的貢獻，并在此過程中學得更多。列席管理層會議并沒有產生成本，但這種個人展示可能會改變你的職業生涯。
3.Mentoring 工作指導
A formal mentorship can be extremely beneficial to your career and requires only a time commitment from a senior employee. Request that you be partnered with a higher-up whose career path you aspire to follow。
正式的指導關系對你的職業非常有益處。對于高層來說，也只是抽出一點時間而已。可以提出希望上級能對自己進行指導。這個指導你的人可以是你想要跟隨其職業生涯路徑的人。
4.Career Training 職業培訓
Many companies have policies to offset tuition costs to pursue higher education in your field—check with HR for details. But even if there is no set standard, approach your supervisor with suggestions of courses or conferences where you might learn critical skills that will benefit the whole team. An added bonus: your boss will look good to her boss when presenting the idea。
許多企業都有培訓政策，為員工在相關領域接受更高級的培訓來支付費用，具體細節可以咨詢人力資源部門。即便公司沒有培訓相關的規定，你也可以自己找主管，請求對方讓你參加一些課程或出現某些會議，以便從中學習到有利于整個團隊的重要技能。這樣做還有一個額外的好處：你的上司在向自己的上司提出這個想法時，會覺得很有面子。
5.Vacation Days 假期
Additional floating vacation days allow employees the flexibility to simply get away or to observe holidays not recognized by the company calendar. In some cases, additional vacation days have proven increased year-round attendance for employees。
額外的非固定假期可以讓員工自由安排假期，或者可以不根據公司規定的節日休假。有一些例子證明，額外的假期能提高員工全年的出勤率。
