Unit One TRAIT?S OF THE KEY PLAYE?RS David? G. Jense?n 核心员工的?特征 大卫·G．詹森 1 What exact?ly is a key playe?r? A Key Playe?r is a phras?e that Ive heard? about? from emplo?yers durin?g just about? every? searc?h Ive condu?cted. I asked? a clien?t - a hirin?g manag?er invol?ved in a recen?t searc?h - to defin?e it for me. Every? compa?ny has a handf?ul of staff? in a given? area of exper?tise that you can count? on to get the job done. On my team of seven? proce?ss engin?eer and biolo?gists?, Ive got two or three? whom I just could?nt live witho?ut, he said. Key playe?rs are essen?tial to my organ?izati?on. And when we hire your compa?ny to recru?it for us, we expec?t that youll be going? into other? compa?nies and findi?ng just that: the staff? that anoth?er manag?er will not want to see leave?. We recru?it only key playe?rs. 1核心员工?究竟是什么?样子的?几乎每次进?行调查时，我都会从雇?主们那里听?到“核心员工”这个名词。我请一位客?户——一位正参与?研究的人事?部经理，给我解释一?下。“每家公司都?有少数几个?这样的员工?，在某个专业?领域，你可以指望?他们把活儿?干好。 在我的小组?中，有七名化工?流程工程师?和生物学家?，其中有那么?两三个人是?我赖以生存?的，”他说，“他们对我的?公司而言不?可或缺。当请你们公?司替我们招?募新人的时?候，我们期待你?们会去其他?公司找这样?的人：其他公司经?理不想失去?的员工。我们只招募?核心员工。” 2 This is part of a pep talk inten?ded to send headh?unter?s into compe?titor?s compa?nies to talk to the most exper?ience?d staff? about? makin?g a chang?e. They want to hire a key playe?r from anoth?er compa?ny. Every? compa?ny also hires? from the ranks? of newbi?es, and what theyre looki?ng for is exact?ly the same. We hold them up to the stand?ards we see in our top peopl?e. If it looks? like they have these? same trait?s, well place? a bet on them. Its just a bit riski?er. 2这是一段?充满了鼓动?性的谈话，目的是把猎?头们派往竞?争对手的公?司去游说经?验丰富的员?工们做一次?职业变更。他们想从另?一家公司招?募核心员工?。然而，每家公司也?从新人中招?人。他们要寻找?的是完全一?样的东西。“我们把他们?和公司顶级?员工表现出?的特质进行?对照。假如他们看?起来有同样?特征的话，我们就在他?们身上赌一?把。”只是这样有?点儿冒险。 3 Its an educa?ted guess?, says my hirin?g manag?er clien?t. Your job as a futur?e emplo?yee is to help the hirin?g manag?er mitig?ate that risk. You need to help them ident?ify you as a prosp?ectiv?e key playe?r. 3“这是一种有?根据的猜测?，”我的
