邊聽邊學 — 點開音檔,5 分鐘練到職場英文有份量
“In an era where AI can write your emails, polish your presentations, and even mimic your tone — the one thing it still can’t replicate is you.”
當 AI 幫你寫信、做簡報、甚至模仿你的語氣,剩下什麼是 AI 取代不了的?今天用 10 個英文單字,帶你看懂「authenticity」為何成為 2020 年代最重要的職場競爭力。

Unit 1 · AI 時代的真實感危機

AI 浪潮下,為什麼「真實感」變得更稀缺?

在 AI 工具鋪天蓋地的職場裡,每封信都可以被潤稿、每份簡報都可以被優化,反而讓人開始懷疑:這真的是「你」說的話嗎?職場上的真誠感(authenticity)指的是言行一致、做自己而非扮演角色。研究顯示,當同事或客戶感受到你的可信度(credibility)時,合作意願會大幅提升——而這種可信度,往往來自人們相信「說這話的是真實的你」。

與此同時,企業文化也愈來愈強調透明度(transparency):主管願意分享決策背後的考量,員工敢開口說不確定的事,而不是把所有東西都精心包裝好(curated)才拿出來。問題是,過度 curated 的職場形象——LinkedIn 上的完美照片、每封郵件都請 AI 潤色——反而讓你更難脫穎而出(differentiate)。當大家的「最佳版本」都越來越像,真正有個性的人反而變得罕見。

台灣補充:在台灣職場,許多人從小被教導謙虛、不突出自己,但在跨國會議或求職場合,缺乏 authenticity 往往被外籍同事解讀為「沒有主見」。其實適度展現真實想法,反而能建立更深的信任感。

Unit 2 · 實際做到 authentic

三個職場練習——讓你說的話有人味、有份量

知道 authenticity 很重要是一回事,實際做到又是另一回事。很多人誤以為「做自己」就是任性或不專業。其實,職場上的真實感需要三樣東西:

第一是自我覺察(self-awareness):知道自己的強項與盲點,才能說出有份量的話,而不是一味配合。第二是勇於示弱(vulnerability):管理學者 Brené Brown 指出,在職場展現適度的脆弱感——比如說「這個我也還在學習」——反而能讓人更願意信任你。不是弱點,而是人味。

第三是誠信一致(integrity):你私下說的跟公開說的要一致,你答應的事要做到。這種一致性,是讓同事知道你是真誠的(genuine)人的核心方式——也是最容易讓 AI 露出破綻的地方:AI 不記得你上週說了什麼。當你把這三件事做好,你說的話才能真正引起共鳴(resonate)——不只是資訊傳遞,而是讓聽的人感受到「這個人在乎」。

台灣補充:台灣許多職場人擔心「太真實」會顯得不夠專業。建議從小事開始:開會時誠實說出自己的疑慮而非沉默附和;報告中加入自己的觀察而非照單全收 AI 的建議。這些都是建立 authenticity 的具體起點。

互動測驗 — 5 題挑戰
1. The marketing team’s proposal was well-formatted but clearly AI-generated. The client said it lacked ______ and asked for something that sounded more human.
Aintegrity
Bvulnerability
Cauthenticity
Dself-awareness
顯示解答
正解:C — 客戶希望聽到「更像人說的話」,這正是 authenticity(真實感、非 AI 生成)的核心意義。integrity 強調誠信一致;vulnerability 指示弱;self-awareness 是自我覺察,均不符合語境。
2. The CFO’s ______ about both wins and setbacks in the quarterly report — including a failed product launch — helped rebuild employee trust after a difficult year.
Acurated image
Btransparency
Cdifferentiation
Dresonance
顯示解答
正解:B — 主動揭露成功與失敗,是 transparency(透明度)的典型表現。curated image 是「精心包裝」,與此語境相反;differentiation 是區隔策略;resonance 是共鳴結果,不是主管的行動。
3. Despite having similar qualifications, she got the promotion because her ______ care for colleagues’ development made her stand out as a people-first leader.
Agenuine
Bcurated
Ctransparent
Dcredible
顯示解答
正解:A — genuine care 是「發自內心的關心」,搭配 care 是固定用法(genuine concern / genuine interest)。curated 形容「刻意包裝」,帶負面意涵;transparent / credible 均為形容詞,但語意不符此語境。
4. The speaker’s story about nearly quitting his job ______ with everyone in the room — because most of them had felt the same way at some point.
Adifferentiated
Bintegrated
Cresonated
Dauthenticated
顯示解答
正解:C — resonate with 是固定搭配,表示「引起(某人的)共鳴」。differentiated 是「區隔」(用法不同);integrated 是「整合」;authenticated 是「認證、驗證身分」,均不符合此語境。
5. 下列哪句話中,integrity 的用法正確?
A“Her integrity in data visualization made the charts easier to read.”
B“Acting with integrity means your words and actions remain consistent, even when no one is watching.”
C“His strong integrity helped him negotiate a better salary.”
D“The company built integrity through its social media following.”
顯示解答
正解:B — integrity 指「言行一致的誠信原則」,act with integrity 是標準搭配。A 把 integrity 用於圖表品質,語意偏離;C 暗示 integrity 可直接帶來物質利益,邏輯不當;D 誤將 integrity 當 credibility 使用(社群媒體建立的是可信度,不是誠信)。
