　　職場專家Alexandra Levit就給出了一些簡單易行的小妙招助你在老闆心中留下好印象。她建議說，首先你要先取悅你的直屬上司，因為他們才是真正見證你每日工作的人。而且直屬上司在你的工作評估和升職問題上也有很大的發言權。下面就是五個你需要記住的小妙招：

　　1. Be the can-do employee. Accept any assignment graciously and without complaining. Take a leadership role in the group even if its outside your comfort zone.

　　1.讓“行，我去做”成為口頭禪。高興地接受每一件交給你的工作任務，不要去抱怨。即使有些工作會超出你的舒適區，也要爭取在小組裏表現出你的領導力。

　　2. Look for new challenges. Don't get reticent because you're good at your current role. Keep thinking of new ideas.

　　2.爭取新挑戰。不要因為你擅長現在的工作就沉默不語、停滯不前。始終要有新想法、新理念。

　　3. Practice good time management. Get assignments done before deadline. Never make your boss ask when something will be ready.

　　3.時間管理很重要。永遠要在截止日期前完成任務。絕對不要讓老闆來問你某件事是不是準備好了。

　　4. Be proactive and be your boss' friend. Know his or her spouse and children and work to make small-talk. This will make it easier to come to your boss with ideas.

　　4.積極主動、成為老闆的朋友。要認識老闆的配偶和孩子，時不時地說上一些寒暄之詞。這會讓你的老闆更容易記住你。

　　5. Keep up-to-date. Read trade publications and follow industry-relevant people on Twitter. Your boss will appreciate if you're in-the-loop about stuff they don't have time to follow.

　　5.與時俱進。閱讀業內相關的期刊，並在Twitter上關注業界相關人士。如果老闆沒有時間來做這些事，而你卻替老闆做了，那麼他們就會對你刮目相看了。
