我写了没几天,探讨一下吧
The speaker asserts that leading voice comes from people who are motivated by the desires to present distinctive views rather than confirmation. I concede that creative and independent thinking really result in breakthrough and contribution; however, it is impossible to evaluate leading voices only depending on special thoughts; after all, an effective leader should not only lead the trend of ideas, but also analyze opinions entirely and convince the majority efficiently.
Granted, under some circumstances, to be an effective leader, a person's thought usually surpasses others and shows the ordinary people into a new environment. Without creative thinking and imagination, in any given field, the leadership will fall behind and the improvement might eschew such poor area. Obviously, the view can be demonstrated clearly in the academic field. Edison, a famous American inventor who patented more than a thousand inventions was appreciated for his originality creative ideas. In the absence of presenting those distinctive opinions, it is hard to imagine a society without light, phonograph and other useful machines; moreover it might also be a fatal pain in Edison’s individual life and the field of invention. Additionally, an executive in a company also is motivated by original plan and special ideas because leader should control the market and direction of management rather than simply follow the step of consumers. In other words, the ability of leaders can be reflected in innovation and original ideas and makes progress of fields.
However, simply presenting opinions and ideas that differ from common people might not only fail to lead others, but also cause troubles and threats. On the one hand, if a leader points out ideas and plans only relying on intuition or by accidents, the essence of opinions might full of flaws and defects. When a businessman carries out a new plan without analyzing market and the economic condition of the company, the program might lead to financial trouble, let alone the increase in profit. On the other hand, a leader should convince the majority about his or her ideas, or no one would support an opinion which is lack of credibility and feasibility. At the politics level, new concept of policies and ideas should be presented to the public experimentally in order to avoid of discontent and resistance. Therefore, showing new idea is the one step of leadership rather than the whole; meanwhile, the leader should establish firm evidence of his or her new opinions and try to convince the public.
Also, it is unfair to overlook the importance of conviction others and objective attitude to others ideas; otherwise, the leader would trap in frame of thoughts for limited knowledge and subjective position. Considering the human nature and individual restriction, any opinion, even pointed out by authorities, has shortcomings and omissions. As an effective leader, the one should realize the merits of others ideas and the disadvantages of own one. If the opinion of majority really has its reason and evidence, the leader should confirm and support it; on the contrary, if the leader's idea fails to consider the whole situation or have obvious flaws, he or she should restructure or give up the opinion. By convincing and reevaluating, opinions will become reasonable and appropriate so that the public can avoid of unnecessary risk and mistakes.
Understandably, creative and original thinking is the basic element and motivation of a leader, while it is possible to realize that blindly presenting distinctive views might lead to trouble and resistance rather than success. In any field, leaders must analyze and reexamine own ideas or others objectively, and then correct his or her attitude to opinion according to different situation. |
