It’s time to reevaluate how women handle conflict at work. Being overworked or over-committed at home and on the job will not get you where you want to be in life. It will only slow you down and hinder your career goals.
Did you know women are more likely than men to feel exhausted? Nearly twice as many women than men ages 18-44 reported feeling "very tired" or "exhausted", according to a recent study.
This may not be surprising given that this is the age range when women have children. It’s also the age range when many women are trying to balance careers and home. One reason women may feel exhausted is that they have a hard time saying "no". Women want to be able to do it all—volunteer for school parties or cook delicious meals—and so their answer to any request is often "Yes, I can."
Women struggle to say "no" in the workplace for similar reasons, including the desire to be liked by their colleagues. Unfortunately, this inability to say "no" may be hurting women’s health as well as their career.
At the workplace, men use conflict as a way to position themselves, while women often avoid conflict or strive to be the peacemaker, because they don’t want to be viewed as aggressive or disruptive at work. For example, there’s a problem that needs to be addressed immediately, resulting in a dispute over who should be the one to fix it. Men are more likely to face that dispute from the perspective of what benefits them most, whereas women may approach the same dispute from the perspective of what’s the easiest and quickest way to resolve the problem—even if that means doing the boring work themselves.
This difference in handling conflict could be the deciding factor on who gets promoted to a leadership position and who does not. Leaders have to be able to delegate and manage resources wisely—including staff expertise. Shouldering more of the workload may not earn you that promotion. Instead, it may highlight your inability to delegate effectively. [br] Why do working women of child-bearing age tend to feel drained of energy?
选项
A、They struggle to satisfy the demands of both work and home.
B、They are too devoted to work and unable to relax as a result.
C、They do their best to cooperate with their workmates.
D、They are obliged to take up too many responsibilities.
答案
A
解析
本题可参照文章的第3段。从文章的第3段可知,这是许多女性试图平衡职业和家庭的年龄段。女性可能感到精疲力竭的一个原因在于,她们很难说“不”。女性希望能够顾及工作和家庭中所有的一切。据此可知,A项正确。B、C两项都不正确,在文中都没有提及。D项属于过度引申,故不正确。A项与文章的意思相符,因此A项为正确答案。
