為何團隊成員篤信他們在同一陣線是重要的

Why it's so important that team members believe they're on the same page

One of the most important characteristics of successful teams is that team members believe in their collective potential – also known as team potency. But what can be done to foster this shared belief? A new study suggests that teams feel more potent when their members believe they share a common vision of how to work and what to achieve.

一個成功團隊最重要的特徵是,團隊成員相信他們的集體潛力 - 也被稱為團隊潛能。但是,做什麼可以促進這一共享信念?一項新的研究表明,當團隊的感覺更有效能時,他們的成員相信他們分享如何運作以及如何實現共同的願景。

只好努力在居家或辦公間留個位置給這些宜人自得的小盆栽功臣,讓它吐露的氧氣,給自己一些清新 ~

研究報導: 別擔憂他人的想法, 自己參加社交活動可以很有趣

Researchers say:
Don't worry what other people think, going out on your own can be fun



In our part of the world, more people are living on their own than ever before. People also say they have fewer close friends. Yet it's still rare, especially at the weekend, to see someone eating alone in a busy restaurant, or rolling up solo to the cinema to watch the latest blockbuster.

在我們的世界,比起以往來說有越來越多人自個兒生活。人們也說,他們少有知心朋友。然而,尤其是在週末,看到有人獨自一個在人來人往的餐廳吃飯,或自個兒到電影院觀看最新的大片仍很罕見。

在宴會中人們較可能記住嶄露笑容的你

Smile at a party and people are more likely to remember seeing your face there
 
 

When you smile at a party, your facial expression is emotionally consistent with the happy context and as a consequence other guests will in future be more likely to remember that they've seen your face before, and where you were when they saw you. That's according to a team of Italian researchers led by Stefania Righi who have explored how memory for a face is affected by the emotion shown on that face and the congruence between that emotional expression and its surrounding context.

為什麼藉獨處去控制你的生活是一種錯誤

Many seek freedom in solitude, but new
research suggests feelings of control
come from social belonging.

Why it's a mistake to seek control of your life through solitude

Many seek freedom in solitude, but new research suggests feelings of control come from social belonging.

許多人從孤獨中尋找自由,但新的研究表明,感情控制來自社會歸屬感。

The true story of Christopher McCandless, dramatised in the 2007 film Into the Wild, is a search for radical independence that culminates in McCandless’ solitary existence in the wilds of Alaska. It speaks to a powerful belief: to feel you control your life, stand alone. But new research suggests otherwise: to feel control, stand together.

克里斯托弗·麥坎德利斯的真實故事,在2007年改編成電影 " 阿拉斯加之死 ",麥坎德利斯尋求徹底的獨立性,在阿拉斯加的荒野,“孤獨的存在使其尋到獨自的巔峰。它講述一個強大的信念:讓感覺控制你的生活,自我獨立吧。但是,新的研究表明另有他方:要有控制感,則是一起努力吧。
