如何面对不佳的绩效考核结果？
Getting a bad performance review can make you feel angry, unappreciated, defeated, and hopeless. But it's not the end of the world. Remember that the way you respond to this appraisal can make all the difference in the next one. Even if you believe that the review is inaccurate and that your boss is completely wrong, you will benefit by reacting in a mature, adult manner. Here are some suggestions:
绩效考核的成绩欠佳可能会让你感到愤怒、不被认可、挫败和丧失希望。但这并不是世界末日。要记住，你对这次绩效考核结果的反应，会大大影响你下次的考核结果。即使你认定考评结果不准确，或者你的老板完全错了，如果你通过成熟的、成年人的方式去应对，你将受益匪浅。
Stay calm. Relax. Breathe. Do not overreact and be objective. Especially, do not say things that will likely be regretted later. Besides, the person giving the performance review may or may not be the one who has written the bad review.
镇定下来，放松，深呼吸。持客观态度，不要反应过度。特别是，不要说你之后会后悔的话。另外，拿给你这份考评结果的人可能并不是写下这份考评的人。
What to Do When Receiving a Bad Performance Review
收到成绩欠佳的考评结果时该怎么做
It's best to listen attentively. And make comments or remarks only when asked for them. Besides, during the performance review, you will be given the chance to respond and may disagree.
最好的做法是认真聆听。只在需要你回应时，你才反馈你的看法和意见。另外，在进行绩效考评时，你会有机会回应，甚至提出异议。
What to Do After Receiving a Bad Performance Review
收到成绩欠佳的考评结果以后该怎么做
Don't be intimidated by the bad performance review and want to quit the job; instead, learn from it. Also, if the organization allows their employees to make a written statement on their own behalf, do make one. It is important for the worker to show why she does not agree with the bad performance review; for instance, an employee may express their different understanding and, at the same time, a willingness to comply with any constructive suggestions.
如果绩效考核结果不佳，不要过于担心，甚至想辞去工作，而应该从中吸取教训。同时，如果公司允许员工自己提供一份书面说明，一定要写一份。对于被考核者来说，表达出不认同不良评定的原因是很重要的。例如，被考核者可在表达不同看法的同时，表示愿意接受有益建议。
