辞职

考验情商的时刻：怎么跟老板谈请假和辞职？专家给你支了几招……

❶ 想清楚你要说什么，想从老板那里得到什么。

❷ 想清楚如果你离开会给他们造成什么影响，他们会有什么反应。

❸ 明确自己应有的权利。

If you are planning on leaving and there's a potential for a conflict of interest or a potential concern that your new work may compete – even in a small way – with what you do currently, then be very careful about what you say and do.
如果你正在计划离职，但是你计划要去的新公司和你现在所在的公司存在潜在利益冲突或者是竞争关系，不论这种关系多微小，你都要小心行事、谨言慎行。

Michelle Gibbings说在销售等行业，只要员工稍稍表露出离职的想法，他们就会马上被炒掉。

Preserve relationships as best you can. The old adage, 'Don't burn any bridges' is critical. The world is small, and it’s common (and a really, really good thing) to maintain relationships with former co-workers.
俗话说：尽可能地保持好关系。“不要切断自己任何一条路”这一点是非常重要的。世界很小，与前同事保持良好关系是一件好事。

工作无聊

考验情商的时刻：怎么跟老板谈请假和辞职？专家给你支了几招……

如果对自己的工作感到无聊，可以找时间与老板谈谈。

One of the best things to do is to book a meeting with them so you can highlight what you have delivered in your role and discuss where you can see opportunities for you to do more.
最好的做法之一就是和他们约谈，这样你可以说明你在现有的岗位上已经做了什么工作并且与老板讨论你还有哪些发展机会。

Simply, turning up and telling your boss 'you're bored' isn't likely to deliver you a favourable response. Come to the conversation with options and ideas that can be discussed.
如果你只是出现在老板面前并且告诉他你很无聊，那么你很可能得不到满意的答复。你应该先想好值得讨论的选择和观点再去谈。
