Proactive /

Proaktivní

Business Term of the Day

Definition

To be proactive means that a person is able to act in such ways as to initiate change or action rather than just react to it.

Example sentence

Our company values proactive approaches in its employees, showing they are not afraid to come up with creative solutions.

Comment

The term proactive is a popular buzzword that we may encounter in many companies with reference to their employees. A proactive person is able to anticipate and identify potential problems before they occur, suggest solutions, then take action. To be proactive is to take self-initiated, free and conscious action. The opposite of proactivity is reactivity or adaptability, which means reacting to situations once they have already occurred.

Definice

Být proaktivní znamená, že člověk je schopný jednat tak, aby zapříčinil změnu či akci, a ne na ně pouze reagovat.

Příklad použití ve větě

Naše společnost si u zaměstnanců váží proaktivního přístupu, který značí, že se nebojí tvořit kreativní řešení.

Poznámka

Proaktivita či proaktivní přístup jsou populární slova neboli buzzwords, s nimiž se můžete setkat v mnoha společnostech v souvislosti s jejich zaměstnanci. Proaktivní člověk je schopen předvídat a odhalit případné problémy dřív, než nastanou, navrhovat jejich řešení a následně jednat. Proaktivita je vnitřně motivované, svobodné a vědomé chování. Jejím opakem je reaktivita nebo adaptabilita, což znamená reakce na již nastalé situace.
