If the company requires you to travel overseas for half a year, would you consider leaving your job?

The leader asked Lin Zi, "Do you want to go together?" Lin Zixin wanted to serve the leader well, so he nodded vigorously. The whole night, the leader and the female classmates chatted in a dark manner, and Lin Zi felt like a light bulb. At the end of the internship period, the leader commented that Lin Zi was "too down-to-earth" and seemed a bit dissatisfied. Lin Zi was puzzled. The leader invited me to go with him. Why was he dissatisfied with me?

The workplace is a small society, and the people you encounter are no less sophisticated than those in daily life. Some people say that the workplace is like a river and lake, and the rivers and lakes are not about fighting and killing, but about the sophistication of people. Accompanying leaders on business trips is a "double-edged sword." Distance creates beauty, close distance destroys beauty. When accompanying leaders on business trips to other places, it is common for them to meet classmates, friends, and relatives to treat them. If you encounter this kind of thing again, grasp these three principles, and you can "remain unchanged in response to all changes."

1. Listen to the leadership’s opinions and determine the leader’s true intentions.

When on a business trip to another place, the leader invites local classmates and friends to have dinner and catch up on old times. It is purely a private banquet or class reunion and has nothing to do with work.

A straightforward leader will say to you, "I have a class reunion tonight, you can arrange your own time." When meeting such a straightforward leader, subordinates will feel relaxed.

When I encounter a leader who is "pretentious" and says, "My classmate invites me to dinner tonight, you can go too." This is just a polite word from the leader, just like what we usually say, "I will invite you to dinner another day." "Same. Don't be like Lin Zi, who is "silly and honest" and just follows along, acting as a light bulb and making people dislike him.

2. If the leader asks you to go, you should participate and thank the leader.

When you go on a business trip to other places, local friends invite the leader to dinner. If the leader thinks it is necessary to bring you to attend, he will use such words to invite you. The leader will say to you, "My friend is inviting me to dinner tonight. Please go with me and get to know more people."

This kind of rhetoric tells you that you must go. If you're still not sure whether you should go or not? You can test it again, "Leader, I won't disturb you when your friends are gathering together. I'll go eat some delicious food myself."

The leader has his own intentions. If he says, "That's okay." Okay, lest you can't talk and eat happily, you can make your own arrangements and pay attention to your safety. "You will also be completely relieved.

If the leader insists on inviting you to go, he has his own reason, "Friends are also bringing colleagues, so you can expand your social network." This kind of rhetoric is very clear, and you should accept it happily.

3. If the leader hints you to go, you must go and serve well.

Since he is the leader, he has some authority. When traveling to other places on business, friends treat guests to dinner, and some gatherings have different purposes. The leader has his own account in his mind, and he will tell you using these three techniques.

A way of saying: Some friends are inviting us to dinner tonight, and they may want to ask us for help. You should also go along and step in to pay the bill if necessary. Look at my gestures when the time comes. If we don’t agree, we will take the initiative to pay the bill. Don’t be short-tempered. This kind of talk is very clear, and you can just follow it.
