* Dust off your previous review.

重提上次的考核

If you had a review at this company a year ago, it probably contains a list of goals. Ideally, you will have been working on these goals this year.

如果去年有过一次绩效考核，大概就会有制定一系列目标。理想的情况下，今年你一直在实现这些目标。

Often, however, you'll realize something has changed. Perhaps a new boss gave you a new direction, or the project you were supposed to focus on got delayed. Richard Phillips, a career coach and owner of Advantage Career Solutions, recommends making sure you have documentation for changes such as these, in case there's a question at review time.

不过往往你会发现事情已经起了变化。也许新老板给你一个新的工作方向，或你本来要致力的项目被推迟。Advantage Career Solutions的老板和职业教练 Richard Phillips建议人们一定要记录下这些变化，以防考核时出现疑问。

What if your boss never officially told you that your goals had changed, but instead just kept piling on other work so that you weren't able to start the projects you discussed at your last review? It would have been best to bring this up with your boss when it happened.

 万一你的老板没有正式通知你的目标已经改变，而只是增加你的工作量，从而使你无法开始上一次考核定下的项目，这该怎么办？最好在当初（老板安排别的工作时）就提出这个问题。

If you didn't, however, it's important to frame your actions the right way. "Say at review time, 'I made a strategic decision that this needed more of my attention than that,'" Phillips said. "Don't make it sound like you just forgot or you blew it off."

如果没有，那么谈论你工作的方式就很重要。Phillips建议：“考核的时候可以这样说,‘我做出了一个策略上的决定，这写工作比那项更需要关注’。别让你的话听上去像是你忘记了或你办糟了。”
