一、Restructuring 企业重组(1)
A group containing many types of business is diversified. A group's basic business activity, perhaps the one it originally started with, is its core business. Separate business activities may be viewed as profit centers, each responsible for generating profit.
Businesses are often encouraged to concentrate or focus on their core activities and to sell off, spin off, or dispose of non-essential assets. These assets are often referred to as non-core assets.
A sale of assets in this way is referred to as a sell-off, spin-off, or disposal. A spin-off can also refer to a business that has been spun off.
注释：
Diversified 多样化；多角化 Core business 核心经营
Profit center 利润中心 Focus 集中经营
Assets 资产；基金 Non-core assets 空心资本
Sell off 抛售 Spin off 剥离；拆分
Dispose of 处理；变卖 Disposal 处理；变卖
二、Management buy-outs 管理层收购
When a group is restructured, the managers of a business that is to be sold off may want to buy it themselves in a management buy-out or MBO, usually in combination with an organization providing finance in the form of venture capital.
注释：
Management buyout = MBO 管理层收购 Venture capital 风险投资
三、Entrepreneurs and tycoons 企业家和金融巨头
An entrepreneur （企业家） is usually someone who builds up a company from nothing: a start-up （新创）company.
Entrepreneurs may one day become tycoons（实业界/金融界巨头）, magnates（产业大王）or moguls（工商巨擘）: rich and successful people with power and influence who head big organizations, usually ones they have built up themselves and in which they have a large personal stake.
四、Managers and executives 经理和董事
A manager is someone in a position of responsibility in an organization. An executive（总经理；董事） is usually a manager at quite a high level. Executives are also execs, an informal expression. People at the head of an organization are senior executives（高级董事/主管） or senior managers（高层管理者/总经理）, top executives（高层领导者）or top managers（总经理）.
五、Ladies and gentlemen of the board 董事会成员
The people legally responsible for a company are its board or board of directors（理事会/董事会）.
In the US,the head of a company may have the title president(总裁/董事长). Again, the responsibilities of this post vary from company to company, and the post may be combined with another.
In the US, a senior manager in charge of a function may have the title vice-president（副总裁/副董事长） and may be on the board. One vice president may have responsibility for running the company, or maybe not, as the last example below indicates only too well.
Executive directors（执行董事） on a board are high level managers of the company. Other directors are non-executive directors（非常务董事）, perhaps bringing their knowledge and experience to several company boards.

一、Headhunting 猎头
Headhunters（猎头者） are specialist consultants who search for highlevel, often board-level, executives and try to persuade them to leave their current job in order to go to work in another company. Managers found in this way are headhunted in a process of headhunting.
Executives may be persuaded to move company by the promise of a golden hello（见面礼）:a large sum of money or some other financial enticement offered by the company they move to.
二、Executive pay 主管人员的收入
When talking about executive pay, compensation（薪水）can refer, confusingly, to two different things:
* what top executives get for running a company.
* what they get on leaving a company.
Apart from salary, an executive's compensation package（工资袋）can include:
* bonuses: extra payments, sometimes, but not always, related to the firm's performance.
* benefits（福利；津贴）and perks（额外津贴）ranging from share options（优先股票权）, the right to buy the company's shares at an advantageous price, to a chauffeur-driven car.
Remuneration（待遇）is also used to talk about executives' salary and benefits.
三、Executive pay-offs 主管人员的遣散费
A compensation package for an executive leaving a company is also known as a golden goodbye（黄金再见）, golden handshake（黄金握别）, or golden parachute（黄金降落）.
Compensation for someone leaving a company may be referred to as a compensation payment, compensation payoff, or compensation payout（赔偿金）.
These payments may form part of a severance package（解雇金）.
Severance payments can be the subject of complex negotiations when an executive leaves, or is ousted（免职）: forced to leave.
When executives are ousted, people may talk about companies giving them the golden boot（给被解职/离职的主管人员的补偿金）.
四、Numbers people 计算数值的人
Business organizations obviously need people who are good with numbers and computers.
People refer, slightly offensively, to accountants and other numerate specialists as bean-counters（数值计算专家/会计） or numbercrunchers（数值计算专家）.
Rocket scientists（这里指由金融机构聘请的专门处理最新的、极为复杂的金融工具的数学及相关学科的高级专门人才） are people with advanced qualifications in mathematics and related subjects recruited by financial institutions to work on new and extremely complex financial products.
五、Management and labour 劳资双方
People working for a company are referred to as its workforce（劳动力）, employees（雇工）, staff（职员）, of personnel（雇员） and are on its payroll（工资发放名册）.
In some contexts, especially more conservative ones, employees and workforce refer to those working on the shopfloor（车间）of a factory actually making things. Similarly, staff is sometimes used to refer only to managers and officebased workers.
This traditional division is also found in the expressions white-collar（白领） and blue-collar（蓝领）.
Another traditional division is that between management（资方）and labor（劳方）.

一、Personnel or human resources? 职员还是人力资源
The people working for an organization are, formally, its personnel（职员/人事）. In large organizations, administration of people is done by the personnel department（人事部）, although this expression is now sometimes rejected. Companies talk instead about their human resources（人力资源）or HR and human resource management（人力资源管理） or HRM.
二、Hiring and firing 雇佣和解雇
Personnel departments are usually involved in finding new staff and recruiting（招聘）them, hiring（雇佣)them, or taking them on, in a process of recruitment. Someone recruited is a recruit（新进人员）, or in American English only, a hire. They are also involved when people are made to leave the organization, or fired（被解雇）. These responsibilities are referred to, relatively informally, as hiring and firing（雇佣和解雇）. If you leave a job voluntarily, you quit（辞职）.
三、 Delayering and downsizing 延缓和精简编制
Middle managers（中程主管）are those in the hierarchy between senior management and front-line managers（基层管理人员） or line managers（生产线管理人员）, the people managing employees.
Middle managers are now most often mentioned in the context of re-engineering（流程再造）, delayering（延缓）, downsizing（精简编制）, or rightsizing: all these expressions describe the recent trend for companies to reduce the numbers of people they employ, often by getting rid of layers of managers from the middle of the hierarchy. An organization that has undergone this process is lean（精干的）and its hierarchy flat（扁平的）
四、Empowerment 授权
Organizations say that they are eliminating middle levels of their hierarchies so as to empower（授权）ordinary workers and employees.
This process of empowerment is designed to give them the authority to make decisions that were previously taken by middle managers.
五、Getting the sack 解雇
When people lose their jobs, they are dismissed（被开除） or made redundant（被解雇）. When people are laid off（被辞退）like this, commentators talk about the number of dismissals（裁员）or redundancies（劳力过剩）involved.
六、Stress 工作压力
The people left in an organisation after it has been downsized often have more to do. Stress is a combination of tension and anxiety often caused by overwork（工作过度）. working too much. People say that they are under stress, stressed, or stressed out when they are overworked. People who have been under so much stress that they are unlikely to recover enough to do their jobs properly again are described as burned out（筋疲力尽）, or in British English only, burnt out.
七、 Outplacement 获任新职（公司为其被解雇员工在另一公司找到工作）
Outplacement is when a company helps people it is making redundant find new jobs in other organizations
