十位商界女强人的差旅宝典

colleen Leahey 2013-03-29
如今的商界精英满世界飞。人在旅途,如何保证舒适?如何确保工作的效率?如何维系跟家人的感情?如何随时随地神采奕奕地出现在工作场合?这些都是职场女性经常需要面对的实际问题。今天,我们就一起来分享一下十位女强人的心得。

    您如何克服时差?飞机一落地,我便会立即让自己调整到新时区;换一只手表,多喝水,经常做做伸展运动。上床睡觉之前,我会洗个热水澡。我会设两个闹铃,这样就不必因为担心无法按时起床而辗转反侧。如果可能的话,我会在飞行途中或是在工作一天后的用餐之前,睡上20分钟。候机或飞机短暂停留时,我也会抓紧在机场内快步走走。这样有助于保持血液循环!

    您必备的出差美容用品有哪些?海蓝之谜(La Mer)护肤品;潘婷(Pantene)抗衰老洗发用品;我最爱的香水——DIVA;我最可靠的化妆箱,里面有粉底、腮红、眼影/眼线和两支唇膏。海蓝之谜润唇膏是最佳选择。

    经常出差,您如何与孩子/丈夫/爱人保持健康的关系?我每天晚上都会与丈夫通话——不论我在哪儿。我会选择在他吃饭之前与他联系。通常情况下,这个时间我刚好吃完晚饭。我们之间有三个小时的时差——他在西部,而我在东部。即使我去西部出差,我们也会坚持这种习惯,或者我在他睡觉之前与他联系。我出差的时候,每天晚上都会跟我的两个儿子通话。我发现,在他们十几岁的时候,他们更愿意在我出差时,每天晚上与我电话交流,甚至比我回到家后与他们的交流还要多。

    您认为哪里的机场最适合消磨时光?我喜欢美国联合航空公司(United Airlines)的丹佛航站楼。因为15年以来,这里一直有一家很不错的女士服装店,我可以在半个小时里大肆挥霍一番!可惜,去年这家店关闭了,到现在我还感到非常惋惜。我在纽约肯尼迪国际机场(JFK)或旧金山机场(SFO)的时间最多。这两家机场一直在提高他们的服务水平,不过纽约肯尼迪国际机场的美联航空头等舱休息室非常出色,我在机场的大部分时间都是在那里度过的。

    公司:饰品直销公司Stella & Dot

    出差频率:每年6-7周

    您使用什么样的旅行箱(或旅行包)?我是极简主义者,只要有可能,就尽量避免检查行李包这类事。所以,我需要用两个包来装下所有东西——Stella & Dot 手提包是我最喜欢的便携手提包,而基本款的黑色新秀丽(Samsonite)拉杆包总是让我想起‘很多包看起来都一样’这样的警示语。你知道,我经常在行李托运处拿错包。

    哪两个应用程序是您旅途中必不可少的?笔记应用程序Evernote,可以记录一位客户或周围的世界带给我的任何灵感,还有Facebook。

    长途火车/飞机旅行中如何让自己更加舒适?乘飞机旅行对我来说是很好的机会,我可以不受干扰地专注于工作。所以对我而言,舒适就是要保证所有设备已经充好电和可以充电,让我有很多音乐可以听。此外,一条能让我温暖的毯子,一本平装书或一份报纸,让我在没有电的15分钟时间里也不会闲得无聊。

    您如何克服时差?说实话?咖啡和安必恩(Ambien)。此外,如果我的身体依然认为现在是午夜,那么我会努力在心理上承认我所在的时区,然后到外面晒晒太阳。

    您必备的出差美容用品有哪些?芭比布朗(Bobbi Brown)BB霜——我喜欢多效合一。兰蔻(Lancome )精密睫毛膏和纳斯(Nars)彩妆或Buxom润唇膏。

    经常出差,您如何与孩子/丈夫/爱人保持健康的关系?Skype和FaceTime真的太神奇了!我们会一起给孩子讲睡前故事。我丈夫会在女儿的房间与我通过Skype通话。他去洗澡的时候,我会对孩子们唠唠叨叨,让她们为明天上学做好准备。我会一边在酒店房间里工作,一边对她们喊“嘿——你不能穿这双鞋”,“好了,快去刷牙!”我也会尽快完成行程,回去和家人团聚。

    您认为哪里的机场最适合消磨时光?虽然这里是我的“主场”,但我还是喜欢旧金山机场的2号航站楼。任何多余的时间都可以用在这里。这里有许多电源插座,诱人的美食,还有一个地方可以做美甲或按摩。它甚至还有一个瑜伽房。当然我从来没去过,但每次从那里经过还是让我感觉很有意思。所以,我的回答是加州,我最爱的家乡。

    Advice for combating jet lag? I get on the new time zone immediately once the plane takes off; change my watch, drink lots of water and always do a stretch routine. I take a hot bath before bed. I set two alarms so I don't toss and turn worrying about if I will get up on time. When possible I take a 20-minute power nap on plane rides or right before dinner after working the day. I also do power walks in the airports waiting for flights or layovers. It keeps the circulation going!

    Beauty products you never travel without? La Mer skin care; Pantene Age Defying hair products; my favorite perfume -- DIVA; and my trusty make up case with foundation, blush, eye shadow/liner and two lipsticks. Finally La Mer lip balm is the best.

    What are you tips for keeping relationships with kids/spouses/partners healthy when you're always on the road? I speak to my husband every night -- no matter where I am. I try to catch him right before he has dinner and usually it's right after I have had dinner; we typically are on 3-hour different time zones -- he is west and I am east. Even when I travel west we stick to this routine or I catch him right before bed. I always spoke to my two boys every night when I traveled all through my career. I found when they were teens they would talk more to me on the phone each night I was away than when I would come home!

    What's your favorite airport to kill time in? I loved the United Airlines Denver terminal because for 15 years they had a great women's clothing store where I could do a lot of damage in a half hour! It closed last year so I am still in mourning. I spend most of my time at JFK or SFO -- both have continued to upgrade their services but United JFK has a great first-class lounge so I hang out there for the majority of my time in the airport.

    Title: Founder and CEO

    Company: Stella and Dot

    On the road: 6-7 weeks a year

    What's your go-to travel suitcase (or bag)? I'm a minimalist that likes to avoid checking at all costs. So I need two bags that carry it all -- The Stella & Dot Switch Bag is my perfect carry on tote and the basic black Samsonite roller bag that calls attention to the 'many bags look alike' warnings. I've often grabbed the wrong one when a gate check bag comes up.

    Two apps you can't travel without? Evernote, to capture any inspired thought that comes from a customer or from the world around me, and Facebook.

    How do you stay comfortable during long train/plane rides? Flying is a great uninterrupted way for me to focus on work, so my comfort comes from being sure my devices are charged and chargeable and I've got great music to listen to. Other than that, a wrap to keep me warm and a paperback or paper so I'm not idle during those tortuous 15 minutes of no electronics.

    Advice for combating jet lag? Honestly? Coffee and Ambien. Plus, I try to mentally only acknowledge the time zone I am in and get outside to take in the sun if my body still thinks its the middle of the night.

    Beauty products you never travel without? Bobbi Brown BB cream -- I love all in one. Lancome Definicils Mascara and Nars or Buxom lip gloss.

    What are your tips for keeping relationships with kids/spouses/partners healthy when you're always on the road? Skype and FaceTime are magic! We read bedtime stories together. My husband will even put me on Skype in the girls room and I gently nudge them along to get ready for school while he's in the shower. I'm in my hotel room working and simply shout out thinks like "hey - you can't wear those shoes" and "ok, go brush your teeth!" I also power pack my trips and get home to them as soon as I can.

    What's your favorite airport to kill time in? Even though it's my home base, I love Terminal 2 at SFO. Any extra time, and there are plenty of power outlets, great food, and a place to get a mani-pedi or massage. They even have a yoga room. I've never been it, of course, but it still makes me laugh walking by. So California, the home state I love.
