办公室主任应具备的基本素质与特殊要求

办公室主任应具备的基本素质与特殊要求
从事办公室工作的同志不仅要具备做人的基本素质，还要有 胜任 " 重要岗位 " 的特殊能力，具体地讲就是忠诚可靠、公道正 派、清正廉洁、甘于奉献、知识全面、业务精湛。 一、要有一些高超的处世能力 一是要处事豁达，不要求全责备、斤斤计较。上下之间、 部门之间在日常工作中不可能没有矛盾，正是因为工作中有这 样那样的矛盾和问题，才需要我们去协调、去处理，在矛盾运 动中将事物推向前进。但是，我们在协调、处理各类工作矛 盾、问题时，一定要相互理解，相互支持，换位思考，求同存 异，抓主要矛盾，不在非原则问题上较真，不在细微末节上纠 缠。二是处事谨慎，不要随心所欲、粗心大意。处事谨慎不是 谨小慎微、胆小怕事，而是要严谨、慎行。开会发言、汇报工 作、处理公文、接待来访、现场处理协调问题，是办公室工作 人员的经常性工作，说话办事一定要言之有据、行之有序、动 之有规。切忌口无遮掩、随意表态，东一榔头西一棒子，把事 情搅得乱七八糟。三是待人真诚，不要欺上瞒下、互不信任。 诚信是中华民族传统美德，是走向世界的 " 绿卡 " ，是我们为人 处事的基本准则。上下之间、部门之间、同事之间都要讲真 诚，既不能欺骗上级部门和领导，更也不能愚弄基层和群众。 为人处事一定要真心换真心，诚心换诚心，切忌互不信任、互 相猜忌。要传达真实意图，反馈真实情况，把问题讲清、把原 因讲透、把办法讲实，千万不要弄虚做假，反馈假情况、反映 假民意，干扰领导决策。 二、要有一个聪慧的头脑 一是坚定的政治头脑。办公室的工作涉及到的每一个方 面，政治性都很强。在很大程度上，代表着一个部门的主张， 反映着本部门的形象，连接着单位和职工的切身利益。办公室 的干部必须对党忠诚，对事关政治性的问题，善于从政治上观 察、分析和处理问题，在大是大非面前头脑清醒，旗帜鲜明， 立场坚定，不随波逐流、人云亦云。
1

二是丰实的理论头脑。一个人的理论素养越高，预测、把 握和解决问题的能力就越强。办公室的干部，必须善始善终地 把学习放在第一位，扎实、认真地学习马列主义、毛泽东思 想，特别是邓小平理论和江总书记 "三个代表" 重要思想。同时 还要多读一些经济、法律、科技、文史等方面的书籍，扩展知 识领域，更新知识结构，提高分析、解决问题的能力。在理论 提高的过程中，既要注意知识的全面性，又要讲求学习的系统 性，还要注重学用的针对性，做到在学习理论上 " 学精管用 " 、 务求实效。 三是辩证的思维头脑。随着地方机构改革的深入和社会生 活的变化，人们的思维方式和价值取向正在经历一场变革，办 公室干部应在这场变革中走在前面。这就要求我们观察问题要 多视角、研究问题要多方位、解决问题要多方法。要注意思维 的超前性。比如，当问题还处于苗头的时候，就能捕捉它；当 认识还处在感性阶段的时候，就开始作理性的思考和回答；对 前人和别人没有研究的问题，着手研究它，从而找出规律性的 东西，对面上的工作给予及时指导，这是争取工作主动所必须 的。 四是求实的科学头脑。实事求是是我们的一大工作作风， 也是党性的具体要求，是职业道德，也是工作纪律。每个干部 想问题、提建议、当参谋、写文章、办事情，都要符合客观实 际。切实做到一是一、二是二，不夸大、不缩小，真实地反映 客观事物的本来面目，包括向领导反映情况，决不能 " 想当然 "、乱揣摩。
五是精明的效益头脑。要树立说错话、办错事、出歪招是 一种浪费、一种过失的观念。在工作措施上，要以最少的投入 争取最好的效果，用最短的时间做更多的事情。在工作运作 中，要讲效率、科学有序、操作规范、线条清楚。在工作效果 上，要多出精品、减少次品、防止废品、禁止"毒"品。 三、要有一套过硬的功夫 一是勤奋好学的功夫。在任何时候都应该有一种紧迫感和 饥饿感，对知识永远保持一种旺盛的好奇心、新鲜感和求知 欲。要养成一种坐得下来、静得下心、钻得进去的学习习惯，

在办公室里，要看一看放在办公桌上的书翻过没有；回到家 里，想一想书柜里书读了多少本；在外出的路上，查一查你的 旅行包里带上书没有，做到终生与书为伴。 二是深入实践的功夫。办公室主任的工作思路、工作点 子、工作实绩从哪里来？从根本上说，来源于生活、来源于时 代、来源于实践。离开基层，脱离群众，领导机关就会成为空 中楼阁；离开实际，领导干部就会成为 " 睁眼瞎 " ；离开实践， 办公室工作就会成为无源之水、无本之木。因此，办公室的所 有干部要深入到经济建设主战场和改革开放的最前沿，脚踏实 地的深入到最基层的工人、农民、知识分子中去，与方方面面 的同志交朋友，建立工作友情，不放过每一个调查对象、线 索、数据、情节，做到 " 打破沙锅问到底 " ， " 不到黄河不死心 "，真正从实践中获取新知，收到实效。 三是善于领悟的功夫。办公室的工作是与人打交道的，是 机关的窗口和纽带，如果对来自基层的反映和群众的呼声缺乏 领悟，是绝对做不好工作的。当然，好的悟性是一个日积月累 的过程，可在与领导和同事的接触中把握他们的工作习惯、思 维方式和活动规律；在接受任务时，充分听取要求和主张，尽 可能地准确理解和把握领导的意图和基层的反映，做到准确， 有原则性；严谨，有逻辑性；独到，有精辟性。 四是精于表达的功夫。口头表达和书面表达能力，是机关 干部的基本功。特别是文字水平，是一个工作人员素质的综合 反映，是办公室工作人员的最基本要求。那种视写文章的干部 不值钱，或害怕写文章的现象，是不行的。办公室干部首先要 会写会议材料和领导讲话。一篇好材料要经过调研、加工、提 炼、归纳、总结、演绎等复杂过程，使文章具有 "真、实、准、 启"的特点，让大家听后或看后能受到教育和启迪。"说"和"写" 同样重要，办公室的干部都要加强锻炼，力求做到精雕细刻、 千锤百炼，工作上人人都能"打通关"，个个都是"多面手"。 四、要有一种高尚的人格魅力 我们要求的人格，就是扎扎实实做事、堂堂正正做人的人 格，有了这样一种人格力量，我们就能挡住诱惑、守住节操、 战胜邪恶、超越自我。 一是对事业有春天般的热情。办公室是一个单位的重要办 事部门，也是一个出成果、出人才的岗位。既然有幸走上这个 岗位，就要义无反顾地投入春天般的热情，爱岗敬业，任劳任
3

怨，执着地追寻它，尽力地干好它。只要我们每一位干部把每 一件工作当成一种事业去追求，把领导和群众交办的每一件小 事作为一项任务去完成，就会在工作实绩中获得无限的乐趣和 丰厚的精神回报，我们的精神境界就会得到升华，人生价值就 会得到实现。
二是对他人有大海一样的胸怀。做好办公室工作离不开方 方面面的配合与支持。对人虚怀若谷、宽厚容人，就会走出世 俗，接近崇高。这是办公室干部的美德。俗话说： "有容乃大， 无欲则刚"，我们要容人胜己，不嫉贤妒能，甘为他人做嫁衣、 作铺垫。要容人直言，不忌恨在心；要助人为乐，不袖手旁 观；要把别人的工作当作自己的工作，以主人翁姿态提建议， 当参谋；把别人的困难当作自己的困难，以 "甘为人梯"的风格 送温暖、献爱心。只有这样，才能赢得更多同志对我们工作的 支持与合作，别人和社会就会抬举你，你工作的环境也才会更 加宽松、和谐。 三是对名利象湖水那样平静。在办公室工作的干部，要努 力做到不为名所累、不为利所缚、不为欲所惑，不同别人计较 享受的条件和优势，要经得住诱惑，守得住清贫，不把以权谋 私看作本事，不把追求低级趣味视为潇洒，在任何情况下，对 待名利始终保持一颗平常心。因为把名利看得太重，就会形成 一种包袱和压力，永无满足，对名利的欲望过多，必然欲壑难 填，不能自己，最终失去同志，有损尊严，甚至贻误事业，断 送前程。只有把名利看得淡一些，把事业看得重一些，才能摆 脱因个人私欲难以满足所带来的苦恼，从中使我们的情操得到 陶冶，心灵得到净化。 四是对自己像旁观者一样清醒。能不能知己所长、知己所 短，是衡量办公室干部是否成熟的重要标志。知己所长，是要 保持一种乐观向上的自信心，而不是感到高人一等。知己所 短，是要不断反省自我，扬长避短，取长补短。取得成绩时， 既感到自慰，又肯定大家的作用；受到批评时，既要有自责的 勇气，又要及时改正缺点。在这一点上，不妨学一学古人：唐 太宗李世民以人为镜，纳谏魏征，成为一代明君。在现实生活 中，知" 长" 易而知" 短" 难，学他人之长易，改自己之短难。要 做到知已所短，就要跳出自我，以高标准的要求、以他人的视

角、以历史的观点，严格甚至苛刻的透视自己，发现不足，战 胜自我。

There are moments in life when you miss someone so much that you just want to pick them from your dreams and hug them for real! Dream what you want to dream;go where you want to go;be what you want to be,because you have only one life and one chance to do all the things you want to do. May you have enough happiness to make you sweet,enough trials to make you strong,enough sorrow to keep you human,enough hope to make you happy? Always put yourself in others ’ shoes.If you feel that it hurts you,it probably hurts the other person, too. The happiest of people don ’ t necessarily have the best of everything;they just make the most of everything that comes along their way.Happiness lies for those who cry,those who hurt, those who have searched,and those who have tried,for only they can appreciate the importance of peoplewho have touched their lives.Love begins with a smile,grows with a kiss and ends with a tear.The brightest future will always be based on a forgotten past, you can ’ t go on well in lifeuntil you let go of your past failures and heartaches. When you were born,you were crying and everyone around you was smiling.Live your life so that when you die,you're the one who is smiling and everyone around you is cryig.Please send this message to those people who mean something to you,to those who have touched your life in one way or another,to those who make you smile when you really need it,to those that make you see the brighter side of things when you are really down,to those who you want to let them know that you appreciate their friendship.And if you don ’ t, don ’ t worry,nothing bad will happen to you,you will just miss out on the opportunity to brighten someone ’ s day with this message.Since we went to school, we have access to English all the time, because it is one of the necessary subjects. Before we attend college, we keep our attention on the grammar, but now college means the new stage and we should pay attention to practical English. Here are some suggestions.First, it is important to speak out loudly. The purpose of learning English is to communicate with foreigners, so as to get to know more about the world. Grammar is not the only thing we care about. What we should do is to open our mouths and improve our ability to use spoken English. It begins with reading textbooks. When we listen to the tapes and repeat many times, then our d.President Trump, as he often does, had a few things to sayAfter admitting that he had been lonely over the holidays, Trump took advantage of his first public appearance of the new year Wednesday to air lingering grievances, make multiple false claims and reinforce recent decisions that have rattled financial markets and his party’s leaders.As he held forth for more than 90 minutes before a small pool of reporters and photographers, members of his Cabinet, ostensibly called to the White House for a meeting, sat quietly around a long conference table.Trump defended his decision last month to withdraw U.S. troops from Syria and sharply cut the deployment to Afghanistan, moves that disturbed Republican allies in Congress and prompted the resignation of Defense Secretary James N. Mattis. In doing so, he contradicted his own recent claim that the U.S. had achieved its objectives of total victory over Islamic State militants in Syria.“Look, we don't want Syria,” he continued. “We're talking about sand and death. That's what we're talking about. We're not talking about vast wealth. We're talking about sand and death,” he said, seemingly contrasting the war-wracked country with Iraq and its vast oil reserves.Iran “can do what they want there, frankly,” he added, a comment likely to unnerve officials in Israel, who have worried that a U.S. withdrawal from its positions in eastern Syria would allow Iran to expand its influence there.“It’s not my fault,” he said. “I didn’t put us there.”Trump offered little further clarity on the U.S. withdrawal from Syria, which he initially said would take place in 30 days, saying now that the pullout will “take place over a period of time.”Later, in a long riff a bout Afghanistan, Trump seemed to endorse Moscow’s 1979 invasion of the country — an act that the U.S. viewed as an attempt to spread communism and waged a long, covert operation to combat during the Carter and Reagan administrations.“The reason Russia was in Afghanistan was because terrorists were going into Russia,” Trump said, making a case to leave the policing of hot spots in the Mideast and Central Asia to countries in the region. “They were right to be there. The probl em is it was a tough fight.”The Soviet Union eventually was bankrupted by its Afghan war, Trump added. “Russia used to be the Soviet Union. Afghanistan made it Russia, because they went bankrupt fighting in Afghanistan.”Historians generally agree that the Russian invasion and subsequent occupation of much of Afghanistan was one of several factors that contributed to the collapse of the Soviet Union, although the country never went bankrupt.For years, Republicans have credited President Reagan with bringing an end to the Soviet Union by his aggressive increase in U.S. military spending. Trump’s comments stood in stark contrast to the view Mattis espoused in the resignation letter he presented last month after failing to convince the president to hold off on withdrawing from Syria.“We must do everything possible to advance an international order that is most conducive to our security, prosperity and values, and we are strengthened in this effort by the solidarity of our alliances,” Mattis wrote.Mattis’ comments clearly stung Trump, who responded last month with criticism of his former Pentagon chief. On Wednesday, he stepped that up, claiming that he fired Mattis.“What's he done for me? How had he done in Afghanistan? Not too good,” Trump said. “As you know, President Obama fired him, and essentially so did I.”Obama did not fire Mattis, although the general did retire several months early in 2013 from his position as the head of the military’s Central Command after dissenting from Obama administration policy decisions.Tuesday was Mattis’ final day at the Pentagon. Trump, in a fit of pique after the resignation letter became public, had moved up Mattis’ termination dateIn addition to his foreign policy comments, Trump also downplayed December’s stock market losses, which erased all positive gains for the year, as “a little glitch” and asserted — wrongly — that there are “probably 30-35 million” immigrants in the U.S. illegally. The nonpartisan Pew Research Center estimates that as of 2016, there were 10.7 million unauthorized immigrants living in the country, a number that has declined in recent years.Trump repeated his call for Democrats to agree to $5.6 billion in funding for a border wall, and expressed surprise not to have received overtures from them over the holidays to negotiate an end to the government shutdown.“I was in the White House all by myself for six or seven days,” he said. “It was very lonely. My family was down in Florida. I said, ‘Stay there and enjoy yourself.’ I felt I should be here just in case people wanted to come and negotiate the border security.”Trump, who met later in the day with congressional leaders away from TV ca meras, has already dismissed a funding proposal from House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi that includes $1.3 billion in border security funding.While leaving the door open to a compromise, Trump continued to argue for the importance of a wall, pointing to other examples of barriers. He incorrectly asserted that Obama’s Washington residence is surrounded by a 10-foot wall and cited the Vatican, which he said “has the biggest wall of them all.”“When they say the wall is immoral, then yo u better do something about the Vatican,” he said. “Walls work.”As Trump spoke, a “Game of Thrones”-style movie poster teasing Iran sanctions — “SANCTIONS ARE COMING,” it read — lay unfurled across the table directly in front of him. But he made no remarks on the subject.He did, however, comment on Sen.-elect Mitt Romney of Utah, who wrote in the Washington Post on Tuesday that he was troubled by Trump’s “deep descent in December” and that his deficit in “presidential leadership in qualities of character … has been most glaring.”“I wish Mitt could be more of a team player,” Trump said. “And if he’s not, that’s OK too.”Seeming to warn Romney about the fate that lies ahead for Republican lawmakers who vocally criticize him and his preside ncy, Trump boasted that he “got rid of” former Sens. Jeff Flake of Arizona and Bob Corker of Tennessee, both of whom opted not to seek new terms last year.Accusing both men of seeking publicity in taking stands against him, Trump suggested that Flakewould be seeking a job as a paid cable news contributor — or perhaps in another profession that Trump himself once plied.“Jeff Flake is now selling real estate or whatever he’s doing,” he said dismissively.
