M: How are you enjoying your new job?
W: So far, so good. I don’t miss having managers who deliver blunt, harsh feedback in the name of efficiency.
M: From the way you described your last company, no wonder they had a problem with high staff turnover.
W: Yeah. I couldn’t wait to get out of there once my contract expired. The problem with a company culture that prizes directness above all else is that it creates a toxic culture of brilliant jerks that drives people out and erodes itself from within.
M: My company’s managers tend to be accommodating and kind, overlooking mistakes or issues so as not to hurt feelings. Issues often get ignored there until they build up and reach a crisis point.
W: That’s not surprising. My new company seems to employ a feedback policy that combines compassion and directness. Employees have the power to speak up, give feedback, disagree and discuss problems in real time. It seems to help us to course correct, improve and meet challenges while also building teams that collaborate and care for one another.
M: But that would be based on an atmosphere of mutual trust, wouldn’t it? Otherwise, people might interpret feedback as some kind of personal attack.
W: True. Without an atmosphere of trust, feedback can create stress and self-doubt. But I think when we get feedback from someone we trust, we understand that the feedback isn’t some kind of personal attack. It’s actually a kind of support because it’s offered in the spirit of helping us improve. I think sometimes people need to shift their mindsets around how they receive feedback.
M: Yes. Constructive feedback, after all, is how we learn and grow. It’s the basis for healthy parenting, lasting friendships, career development, and so much more. If we shelter our children, friends and colleagues from information that might enrich and enhance their lives, we are not being caring. We’re actually doing harm to them.
W: That’s exactly right.

细节理解题。当男士问女士她的新工作怎么样时,女士先是在短文中说自己一点儿也不怀念以前所在公司的那种表面上很高效,实际上太过直接和严苛的管理模式,之后又在短文中说,崇尚直接高于一切的公司文化是有毒的,这种文化下的公司满是聪明的混蛋,逼得员工离职,从内部侵蚀自己。因此答案为D)。
