又来一项急活时怎样回应
How should we respond to the extra report? Explain your plan.
团队已排好本周四份报告，主管又要求周四交一份新报告。你不想直接拒绝，也不能默默答应五份。你需要请主管明确取舍。
1 · 先听见真实对话
Colleague: How should we respond to the extra report?
You: We should agree which existing task to move.
Colleague: Why can we not promise all five?
You: Our capacity is four reports, so adding a fifth would overload the team.
Colleague: What should we ask the manager to confirm?
You: We should ask the manager to confirm the new priority.
2 · 理解表达在这里做了什么
workload
how much work we have to do
My workload is heavy this week.
描述负担，不等于个人能力差；常用 heavy/light workload。capacity
how much work we can handle
We have capacity for four reports this week.
与 workload 区分：一个是需求，一个是可承接的量。priority
what should come first
The client report is our top priority.
priority 要有依据；不把每件事都称为 top priority。3 · 跟读后，换成自己的信息
We should agree which existing task to move.
建议：先明确新任务替换哪项安排。
Our capacity is four reports, so adding a fifth would overload the team.
理由：说明具体数量限制与影响。
We should ask the manager to confirm the new priority.
协商：请有决策权的人确认新优先级。
Then we can update the workload plan and tell the affected colleagues.
闭环：调整后通知受影响的同事。
保留沟通意图，换掉人物、文件或时间。简单而准确的句子同样有效。

What if no task can move?
What if no task can move?
Address the changed condition. Choose a practical next step and explain why it helps.
- My response addresses the changed condition.
- I explain one practical action and its likely effect.
- I make the next step clear.
6 · 明天不看答案，再想一次
When can we take the new report?
