Could you tell us the secrets of your successful career?Baxter: Just as the golden rule of real estate is location, location, location, the golden rule of work is relationships, relationships, relationships. Unfortunately, many workers focus so hard on the job at hand that they never develop useful relationships with people in other parts of their organization. Worse, when they do interact with colleagues in other departments, they may not treat them with respect.Lillian: Could you give me more details?Baxter: Let39。s take Wendy as an example. She switched jobs several months ago in the pany. In her first position, as a marketing manager, she frequently found herself in conflict with the financial department over her staff39。s expenses. Her argument for more funds usually ended in vain. Then in her new job as training administrator, she wanted to launch an onthejob training project. She needed the financial department to support her request for a budget. How did she convince them this time? Although the financial department39。s offices were located in another city, Wendy decided to visited them in their offices and try to establish closer relationships. She believed she must first of all understand their mission and their own training needs. Then she found an ally in the pany39。s chief financial officer, who saw how her group could help develop his staff. Thus the two forged a longterm alliance, which led to a training program so successful that it has since been picked up by the pany39。s offices inGermanyandJapan. Winning allies throughout your organization has an additional benefit. These days, it39。s far too risky to expect your work to speak for itself. Having allies who speak well of you increases your reputation with the top management.Unit 4 let’s tallk 1 Ayesha: In the newsroom you have about 16 reporters. The news reporters sit in one part of the room, and you have features on the other side of the room. I39。m just going to see Kev, he39。s my news editor and he39。s gonna do a brief, basically brief me on a story that39。s happening later on. When I walk into my newsroom I don39。t know what to expect. You start at eight but you don39。t know how long that39。s gonna go on for. Hello.Kevin: Hi Ayesha. So we39。re really looking for a featurey sort of piece for tomorrow39。s paper.Ayesha:FrenchayHospital, which is one of our hospitals inBristol. They39。re celebrating their 10 years of this head injury unit, and we39。ve been invited up. We39。re gonna obviously cover and take pictures, and I39。m gonna get to speak to people. So he was really giving me guidelines.Kevin: You know when you39。re doing your interviews, speak to people in some detail about, you know, how they were injured in the first place, but then the treatment they39。ve gone through. OK?Ayesha: Yeah. Excellent! Thank you!Well, I39。ve just started writing up for my next, and just basically from the day. I39。ve got to get something through, I think, by about four. Sometimes I e back and I39。ve got so much going on in my hands. So I39。m just trying to, sort of, just work it through. Deadlines are very stressful. But you have to meet them because it39。s important。 it39。s part of what newspaper journalism is all about. You get used to it by getting the guidance, managing your time, but it39。s still scary. OK. It39。s all done. OK. This is theBristolfinal. If I have a look at page 14, there we are, and that39。s my story.
