A1-A2 - A vingança dos peixes 

Era uma vez (porque é assim que todos os bons contos começam) uma família de peixes. Na verdade, eram várias famílias. Nadavam todos pelo mar. Divertiam-se muito a jogar às escondidas, jogavam futebol com conchas e tinham muitas outras brincadeiras. Isto tudo para dizer que viviam uma vida simples, mas cheia de alegria e felicidade. Viviam com outras criaturas marinhas. Claro que, de vez em quando, havia um “desaparecimento”, especialmente quando passava por lá um tubarão, mas isso era a lei da Natureza, e nada podia mudá-la.
Porém, um dia, um peixe desapareceu sem ninguém saber porquê. Estavam todos preocupados, porque ele não voltava. Vários dias depois, outros peixes desapareceram. Portanto, todos os peixes que ainda estavam vivos juntaram-se e decidi- ram explorar os oceanos. Poucos dias depois, um peixe voltou e contou aos outros o que tinha visto: era um monstro enorme, com várias bocas que nunca se fechavam. Não se lhe distinguiam olhos. Ao ouvir isto, todos os peixes ficaram aflitos e com medo. Brincavam muito menos, estavam muito mais atentos e vigilantes.
Mas, um dia, dois peixinhos ganharam coragem, saíram da casa deles e foram explorar o mar, para ver o monstro que comia os peixes. Esconderam-se atrás das algas como costumavam fazer. Esperaram, esperaram, mas foram recompensados por tanta paciência, porque a criatura demoníaca voltou. Comia tudo o que via, parecia que nunca conseguia saciar-se. Tinha imensas bocas que nunca se fechavam. Apesar do pavor que tinham, ficaram a observar e não fugiram. E fizeram bem, porque, depois, eles viram uma coisa inacreditável: o monstro não comia os peixes, mas guardava-os dentro da barriga. Depois subia para dentro do barco que o arrastava. Oferecia todos os peixes que tinha aos humanos, estava ao serviço deles. Foi então que os dois peixes perceberam que não era monstro nenhum… (…)

Ciboulet et l'ascenseur 
Le grand-père de Ciboulet vit au huitième étage d’un bel immeuble. Ciboulet aime bien l'appartement de son grand-père: quand le petit ours regarde par la fenêtre, les gens sur le trottoir paraissent tout petits!
Un après-midi, son grand-père propose:
- Si nous allions nous promener?
- Oh oui, s'écrie le petit ours. 
Le grand-père prend les clefs et ajoute:
- Pendant que je ferme la porte, appelle l'ascenseur!
Alors Ciboulet va sur le palier et crie:
- Ascenseur! Ascenseur!

USE FEEDBACK TO BOOST CONFIDENCE & ABILITY IN THE WORKPLACE!

Giving and receiving feedback is an everyday skill that has become even more important in today’s business world when more and more people are working from home or in remote locations.

The idea that an annual performance review is the only time when feedback is needed is as outdated as Microsoft Windows 95.

So why do both employees and managers the world over dread the annual ritual of a performance review?

The answer is easy. Companies have institutionalised the giving and receiving of feedback and created a strong negative emotional response to the whole idea of having one's performance analysed. No wonder we all anticipate this moment with fear and doom.

However, when done in the right way, with the right intentions, feedback can lead to even greater success and performance. So, let BizPod share with you some tips on how and when to give feedback effectively and how to receive it constructively.
