（详细故事改天讲）We seemed to be pretty fond of each other and hung out quite a lot. In and out of office. Later on, during one of her 1-on-1s with her manager, he suggested her to stop hanging out with me. You know ‘perception is reality’ kinda stuff. That hanging out with a younger and reckless guy like me would be a career liming move for her.我们互相挺喜欢的，经常在一起，不管是在工作中还是工作外。

Great leaders understand that some of the best leadership qualities entail listening to others with undivided attention.Great leaders with excellent management skills to encourage input and change, Also who encouraged a dialogue with the team came out on top. and the best way to measure them is based on feedback they get from their best people. People usually give the best scores to leaders you trust and to leaders who listen.1 / 21The Most Essential Leadership Qualities:Integrity is perhaps the most valued and respected quality ofleadership and one of the most important management skills you need to attain. By saying what you’ll do and then be doing what you say, you will build trust around your team.To be successful as a leader, you need a bination of two ingredients: character and petence. You need to be a person of integrity. Someone people trust and are willing to follow.To be trusted in business, you must be trustworthy. You must believe in yourself, your pany, the essential goodness of your products and services, and in your people.Out of all the existing leadership qualities, the most fascinating and distinguishing characteristic of level 5 is an often misunderstood trait: humility.As it happens, humility doesn’t actually mean being humble . . . "Humility simply means you have a burning, driving, relentless ambition to serve and to win,""Without the arrogance to delude yourself into believing that you are knowing everything or always right."As a Level 5 Leader, you don’t believe you are perfect. You must, however, believe in yourself, and be convinced that you have what it takes to succeed and that you can get better. You are always looking for new ways to develop your leadership qualities and take your thoughts to the next level.And most of all a successful leader shouldn\'t build a wall between him and his employee, in contrast, he should earn the trust of his employ. A Summery of Brian Tracy answers the question leader?essential for an effective leader.2 / 21Maram Al-khazmary==9 Signs You’re a Highly Sensitive PersonSensitive people get a bad rap. Research suggests that genes are responsible for the 15–20% of people who qualify as "highly sensitive." Psychologist Elain Aron has studied this phenomenon extensively, and using MRI scans of highly sensitive people’s brains, she’s found that they experience sounds, feelings, and even the presence of other people much more intensely than the average person. Sensitivity and Emotional IntelligenceEmotional intelligence (EQ) is your ability to recognize and understand emotions in yourself and others and your ability to use this awareness to manage your behavior and relationships. The good news is that highly sensitive people aren’t more or less emotionally intelligent than others. Highly sensitive people experience things more intensely. Their strong emotions are easier to identify (and potentially use to their benefit) than the average person. This also helps them to municate effectively because they don’t just hear the words ing out of other people’s mouths, but they also catch on to subtleties in gesture and tone.There are trade-offs, however, as strong emotions that are left unchecked can have disastrous consequences. Highly sensitive people can use EQ to their benefit only once they understand that they are highly sensitive. This awareness ensures they reap the benefits of their heightened emotional awareness while spotting and defeating their negative tendencies. The Highly Sensitive PersonYou’re likely wondering if you or someone you know are highly sensitive. The following are the most mon qualities that highly sensitive3 / 21people possess. See how many apply.You think deeply. When life throws you a curveball, you retreat deep into your shell, thinking through every aspect of what transpired before taking any action. Small things (in your own life and other people’s lives) can have a big impact on you.英语学习英语学习阅读材料(A4打印版) - 180730You’re detail-oriented. You’re as sensitive to details as you are to feelings. You see details that others miss, and you aren’t content until you’ve dotted all the i’s and crossed the t’s. This is a strength that is highly valuable in the right profession.You take longer to reach decisions. Since you’re prone to dig deep beneath the surface, you tend to drag out decisions. You can’t help but try to run every possible oute through your head, and this is often at the expense of the ticking clock.You’re crushed by bad decisions. When you finally make a decision, and it turns out to be a poor choice, you take it much harder than most. This can create a vicious cycle that slows down your decision-making process even more, as fear of making a bad decision is part of what slows you down in the first place.You’re emotionally reactive. When left to your own devices, you have a knee-jerk reaction to your feelings. You also have strong reactions to what other people are going through. When your emotions e on strong, it’s easy to let them hijack your behavior. The hard part is channeling your feelings into producing the behavior that you want. You take criticism harshly. Your strong feelings and intense emotional reactions can make criticism hard to take. Though you may overreact to criticism initially, you also have the tendency to think hard about things and explore them deeply. This exploration of criticism can play out well for you in the long run, as your inability to "shrug it off" helps you make the appropriate changes.You work well in teams. Your unique ability to take other people’s4 / 21feelings into account, weigh different aspects of multifaceted decisions, and pay attention to the smaller details makes you extremely valuable in a team environment. Of course, this can backfire if you’re the one that is tasked with making final decisions, as you’re better suited to offering input and analysis than you are to deciding whether or not to push the red button.You have great manners. Your heightened awareness of the emotions of other people makes you highly conscientious. You pay close attention to how your behavior affects other people and have the good manners to show for it. You also get particularly irked when other people are rude. Open offices drive you crazy. Your sensitivity to other people, loud noises, and other stimuli makes it practically impossible for you to work effectively in an open-office environment. You’re better off in a cube or working from home. Bringing It All TogetherLike many things in life, being a highly sensitive person is both a blessing and a curse. It all es down to what you make of it. Are you or someone you know highly sensitive? Please share your thoughts in the ments section below as I learn just as much from you as you do from me.

三周后他双手叉腰走进我的办公室，―看，‖他说，―我来这是学习当药剂师的。
我为什么必须读这个？‖由于没有随身带着自己的书，他就指着桌子上放着的我的那本。
New as I was to the faculty, I could have told this specimen a number of things. I could have pointed out that he had enrolled, not in a drugstore-mechanics school, but in a college and that at the end of his course meant to reach for a scroll that read Bachelor of Science. It would not read: Qualified Pill-Grinding Technician. It would certify that he had specialized in pharmacy, but it would further certify that he had been exposed to some of the ideas mankind has generated within its history. That is to say, he had not entered a technical training school but a university and in universities students enroll for both training and education. 虽然我是位新老师，我本来可以告诉这个家伙许多事情的。
