外刊精选｜老板们也要“整顿职场”了，从不说“feedback”开始
随着95后、00后步入职场，职场应该更平等、更开放的理念正在深入人心，人们把这种影响戏称为“整顿职场”。现在，老板们也开始“整顿职场”了，第一步就是替换掉打工人耳熟能详的“职场术语”，比如“反馈”等词汇。这些术语对职场人士有什么不利影响？替换它们是否可以产生真正有益的变化？
Bosses Say 'Feedback' Is Too Scary for Some Workers, So They Use This Word Instead
By Alexandra Bruell and Lindsay Ellis
Employers around the country have good news for workers who dread chats about their performance: Feedback is on the way out.
Many companies, executive coaches and HR professionals are looking to erase the anxiety-inducing word from the corporate lexicon, and some are urging it be replaced by what they see as a gentler, more constructive word: "feedforward."
Feedback too often leaves workers feeling defeated. "The old assumptions of feedback, and all that word conjures up, I think puts a chill on performance," says Joe Hirsch, a corporate speaker and author of a book on how to fix feedback. "Feedforward is about this forward-looking view of people."
The canceling of feedback comes as younger generations—who prefer a more positive, nurturing environment—are accounting for a larger share of the workforce, and companies increasingly focus on performance and efficiency following a pause on reviews during the pandemic.
Companies are also banishing another negatively charged term: "review," which they are replacing with "connect" sessions, coaching, self-reflection and opportunity discussions.
Plenty of employees feel the sidelining of feedback is a step too far. For some, the effort is, at best, an empty rebranding exercise. At worst, it deprives swaths of workers of the tough love they feel is essential to grow as a professional.

New research shows that removing black rhinos’ horns (犀牛角) to make them less attractive to illegal hunters is reducing their territory (领地) sizes and making them less sociable with each other.
The study, published in the journal PNAS, found that de horned South African rhinos have home ranges that are 45 per cent smaller than those of complete animals, and that they were 37 percent less likely to engage in social interactions.
“The big, dominant bulls that used to have very large territories that overlapped with a lot of females may now have much less territory and much less reproductive (繁殖的) success,” says Vanessa Duthé, who led the work at Switzerland’s University of Neuch tel.
“It’s really hard to predict the effects of this,” she says. “It doesn’t mean that population success will necessarily decline, because it might open up gaps for younger males that would not have had the space or the means before.” Indeed, a University of Bristol study published last year showed that de horning (去角) does not negatively affect populations overall.
But such unintended behavioral consequences necessarily feed into judgments about whether this highly invasive procedure is worthwhile. Remarkably, perhaps, there is little hard evidence either way. “No one’s put all the data together to say whether it’s a really effective measure,” says Duthé.
“What is clear is that the introduction of de horning and a decline in illegal hunting has occurred at the same time,” she adds. “But de horning has been accompanied by other conservation measures that may be more effective.”
“It’s incredibly complicated,” says Lucy Chimes, a member of the Bristol team. “There are so many other factors involved. You have to consider what other security measures are being carried out — fencing, patrols, staff numbers — and poverty levels surrounding parks, their nearness to national borders and whether there is community engagement.” Chimes is currently planning a project that aims to separate these and other factors. In the meantime, Duthé believes that de horning is a worthwhile tool of last course of action. “A rhino that is behaving a little bit strangely is better than a dead rhino.”
15.What is the purpose of removing the horns of black rhinos
A.To make them less sociable. B.To protect them from being hunted.
C.To reduce their home ranges. D.To affect their reproductive success.
16.What does the underlined phrase “invasive procedure” in paragraph 5 refer to
A.The removal of rhino horns. B.The loss of rhino territories.
C.The impact on rhino population. D.The change of rhino behavior.
17.What is Chimes’ attitude toward the de horning of black rhinos
A.Supportive. B.Opposed. C.Unconcerned. D.Uncertain.
18.What can we learn from the last paragraph
A.De horning rhinos shows satisfying effects.
B.Various factors lead to the decline in illegal hunting.
C.De horning is the last action researchers will take.
D.Rhinos are supposed to behave a little bit strangely.

老板们说“反馈”一词对一些员工来说太可怕，所以他们改用这个词
全国各地的雇主们给那些害怕聊一聊工作表现的打工人带来了好消息：“反馈”这个词即将出局。
许多公司、高管教练和人力资源专业人士都打算从职场词汇中删除这个引发焦虑的词，有些人强烈要求用一个他们认为更温和、更有建设性的词——“前馈”来取代它。
反馈常常让员工感到挫败。“‘反馈’一词隐含的老旧过时的假设，以及它所引发的各种联想，我认为都会对人们的业绩表现产生削弱效果。”曾著书探讨如何修正“反馈”的企业演讲家乔·赫希（Joe Hirsch）说，“而‘前馈’一词，则是用发展的眼光看待员工。”
取消“反馈”发生的背景是，年轻一代在劳动力中的占比日益提高，他们喜欢更积极向上、有益成长的工作环境，此外，在疫情期间随着复盘的暂停，公司越来越关注业绩和效率。
公司也在摒弃另一个充满负面色彩的术语：“复盘评估”。取而代之的是“关联会”，指导，自省和机会探讨。
很多员工觉得将“反馈”一词强制出局做得太过了。对一些人而言，往好处说，这种努力是一种空洞的改名运动，往坏处说，它让大批员工无法得到“严厉之爱”，而他们认为这是成长为一名专业人士所必需的。
