我们之前在EP100的时候聊了:「The right way to praise and correct others如何在职场上用英文称赞别人、以及如何礼貌地给别人建议」。

今天我们就要来讲这个主题的「反面」:

� 当别人称赞你、鼓励你、或给你建议(feedback)时,你该怎么自然又专业地回复?

这些能力在 西方职场文化里真的非常重要。

� 本期的知识卡片我们整理在下面啦：

� Series 1: The Art of Receiving Praise (如何优雅接受称赞)

Card 1: Core Mindset & Formula (核心思维与公式)

� Cultural Context (文化差异):In Western workplaces, excessive modesty ("No, I'm not that good") can be seen as a lack of confidence or even dismissing the other person's judgment.在西方职场，过分谦虚（“哪里哪里，我很差”）会被视为缺乏自信，甚至是否定对方的眼光。Key Principle: Accepting praise = Respecting their observation.核心原则： 接受称赞 = 尊重对方的观察。

� The Golden Formula (黄金回复公式):

Thank (感谢)

Acknowledge (承认/接受)

Context (补充说明背景 / 归功团队 / 提及未来目标)
