The idea “give vs. take” takes shape in all inte

41、ractions (互動) and relationships of our lives. Were either giving advice, making time for people, or were on the receiving end. We keep changing between the two based on different situations on a daily basis, if not an hourly one.According to Adam Grant, a professor at the University of Pennsylvania,

42、 most people are matchers. They make careful observations on takers and make it a point for them to pay something back. They hate to see people who act so generously towards others not receive any rewards. Actually, most matchers will try hard to promote and support givers so that they can get the g

43、ood they deserve.Is there a gender factor (性別因素) that plays a part in this?A study led by Hannah Riley Bowles, a professor at Harvard University, focused on this question. She asked 200 senior managers to sit down in pairs where one person would act as the boss and the other as an employee to discus

44、s salary promotions. Male “employees” asked for an average salary of $146k while the females asked for only $141k. But why did they not bargain as hard as the men? Simply because they were more likely to be givers.As a woman, I do enjoy the act of giving up my time, my knowledge, and my care and my

45、attention to others. I dont expect anything in return, but I do tend to pull myself away when I feel like Im being taken for granted. I also tend to get upset when I see a loved ones continuous actions of kindness go unnoticed. So, its safe to say Im 50% giver, 35% matcher and 15% taker.I do know so

46、meone, however, who is 99% giver. Theyre constantly devoting their time, sharing valuable insights (洞察力) and going out of their way for everyone who crosses their path. Although theyre changed the lives of many people, they rarely see any of it returned. But the universe is slowly repaying them; the
