Five Ways to Break Through the Glass Ceiling 突破职场天花板的五点建议 I have watched many talented people struggle to advance beyond middle management and through the glass ceiling. Women have particular trouble making the leap: while women hold over half of the professional jobs in the U.S., they only make up 34% of middle managers, 14% of executive officers, and a mere 4% of CEOs. 曾看到很多优秀人才很难做到中层以上、突破那层玻璃天花板。女性实现这一飞跃尤其困难：女性占美国专业岗位的一半以上，但她们只占中层管理人员的34%、高层管理人员的14%，在CEO中的比例更是只有4%。 Here are five key things to do if you want to break through the glass ceiling and go to the next level: 如果你想突破玻璃天花板上升到新的级别，做到以下五件事情非常关键： 1) Learn to See the Big Picture 伊丽莎白?摩斯(Elisabeth Moss)在剧集《广告狂人》中饰演的佩吉?奥尔森(Peggy Olson)。 In middle management and below, the job is all about execution: delivering on the ideas and strategies that others have created.

Doing well at execution requires specialization and focus. Doing well at the executive level requires a global understanding of the business environment and the tasks at hand. 这些工作要求的技能是非常不同的。做好执行需要专门化、需要专注。做好高管级别的工作，就需要对商业环境和手头任务有一个全局的了解。 So if you want to make the transition to the executive level, you have to first start thinking beyond specialization and your immediate workload. Be open to developmental opportunities that may be unrelated to your current job, but that will give you wider knowledge and insights. Develop great relationships with individuals outside your department and company. Read books, blogs, and newspapers to stay current on whats happening not only in your industry, but in the business community at large. That way, when leadership opportunities arise, youll already have an informed, strategic view of what needs to happen. Then you can... 所以如果你想上升到高管级别，那么首先就得让你的思维超越专门化和手头的任务。要留意可能跟你目前岗位无关、但会让你获得更广知识与见解的锻炼机
