Chinese translation: 意义/重要性

21:37 Jul 28, 2011
English to Chinese translations [PRO]
Tech/Engineering - IT (Information Technology) / IT leadership
English term or phrase: relevance
So, how do you give the right impression without killing yourself and your team? The trick is to appear to be responsive without actually responding to everything! Save high-SLA responsiveness for the most important things ― the ones that most impact the business. Remember that success, relevance and recognition come from getting things done that most impact the business, not from doing everything that comes in.
成功、XX和认可

Chinese translation:意义/重要性
Explanation:
我不觉得这是一个typo，relevance 其中一个含义是：
practical and especially social applicability （可大致译成：实用性，尤其是社会适用性）http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/relevance

网上也可以找到不少将relevance译成“意义”的情况，现举两例：
Jean Cassou's message on the ethics of individual responsibility has not lost relevance.
让•卡苏对个人责任之道德规范的看法迄今仍有重要意义。

Indeed, their relevance and capacity to inspire have increased, as nations and peoples have become increasingly interconnected and interdependent.
事实上，随着国家和人民之间的相互联系和相互依赖日益增加，它们的现实意义和感召能力业已加强。

有的放矢


Explanation:
relevance here means to focus on what are important and let alone the trivial (in cliche Chinese, 有针对性)

请记住，要做到有的放矢、获得认可并取得成功，必须着眼解决对业务影响最大的事情，而不是事无巨细样样关心。
