"The most essential quality of an effective leader is the ability to remain consistently committed to particular principles and objectives. Any leader who is quickly and easily influenced by shifts in popular opinion will accomplish little."


I partly agree with the speaker's contention that an effective leader should possess the essential quality of remaining consistently committed to particular principles and objectives, but in some situation, it is also requisite to accept the mass opinions. In addition, an effective leader should be able to implement the optimal method to accomplish the mission.

To begin with, remaining consistently committed to particular principles and objectives make the leader standing firm among his followers. A leader, from the one running a small group of employees in office to the one leading hundreds of thousands of people in a country, is the one that elected by majority and his every decision is linked with the whole team's or country's benefits. Without persistence in his own principles and objectives, the ordinary people may not believe in his ability to promoting the mass. Just glance at the famous leaders in history, the attribute of persistence is common in them. If not persisting in implementing the new policy through the America in her depressed time, the economy of America may not be vigorous as it is today, and Roosevelt may not be reelected three times as the president; without persistence in the belief of abolishing the racial discrimination, Martin Luther King may not be admired by millions of people. Obviously, the quality of remaining consistently committed to the principles and objectives is important for an effective leader.

However, persisting in the principles does not mean that ignoring the reflections from people all the time. On the contrary, an effective leader should always listen to the sound of the mass people which could most accurately express their thought and wish. Only after knowing the followers' thought, could a leader have a comprehensive analysis and adopt an appropriate strategy to accomplish the mission. Otherwise, making decision merely depending on one's own idea, the leader is inclined to become an autocrat and deviate from the original intention. There is no better an example than Hitler and Mussolini, the two notorious dictators, who bring an unprecedented catastrophe to human beings. Thus, a smart leader should absorb suggestions and opinions from the mass people to help making important decisions.

Furthermore, the leader should apperceive the situation and the state of the surrounding, and determine which approach will most likely lead to the accomplishment of the overall mission. A leader serve during different time periods marked by different states of the overall environment. What a leader needs to consider, is both the special state and the mass people's opinions, and the leader has to balance the two sides and make a decision appropriately. Take the two presidents of America for example-- Clinton and Bush. Both of them are considered strong and effective leaders in history, however, their policy are totally different from each other's. In Clinton's time, the American economy was steady, and Clinton seemed to listen more to the public; while in Bush's time, both the recession and the terrorists attacked America, thus he decisively took some measures towards the terrorists and the economy which were opposed by the public but actually benefited the nation that time. Thus, what a leader should persist is the appropriate principles and objectives which are the optimal in the temporal circumstance.

To sum up, the attribution of persisting the principles and objectives is the essential quality an effective leader should possess, and proper acceptance of the public opinions is requisite. What's more, an effective leader should be able to choose the approach which is most likely to accomplish the mission under the overall environment.

To begin with, remaining consistently committed to particular principles and objectives make the leader standing firm(firmly) among his followers. A leader, from the one running a small group of employees in office to the one leading hundreds of thousands of people in a country, is the one that elected by majority(直接说is elected by majority 好些吧) （而且我觉得这句话在这里没什么作用把）and his every decision is linked with the whole team's or country's benefits. Without persistence in his own principles and objectives, the ordinary people may not believe in his ability to promoting the mass. Just glance at the famous leaders in history, the attribute of persistence is common in them. If not persisting in implementing the new policy through the America in her depressed time,（Great Depression大萧条时期） （in America during the Great Depression ）the economy of America may not be vigorous as it is today, and Roosevelt may not be reelected three times as the president; without persistence in the belief of abolishing the racial discrimination, Martin Luther King may not be admired by millions of people. Obviously, the quality of remaining consistently committed to the principles and objectives is important for an effective leader.我觉得在这里应该进一步论述一下为什么Without persistence in his own principles and objectives, the ordinary people may not believe in his ability to promoting the mass

我觉得后两段的论述有问题，题目中并没有任何设计到听取人民意见的词语和句子，但你在b2说得是要听去人民的意见，b3中数要结合实际情况听取人民的意见，好像都说不过去，毕竟这到题目说得是坚持自己的信仰还是很快改变的问题To sum up, the attribution of persisting the principles and objectives is the essential quality an effective leader should possess, and proper acceptance of the public opinions is requisite.

题目中不是说是...influences by shifts in popular opinion...吗？
我理解的就是受大众即群众观点所趋呀？

（布什反恐还是在初期得到了美国人民的支持的，且支持率很高的，我觉得例子在这里有点牵强，现在也没有完全说明布什对经济的改革取得了成果）[

嗯～～　我这里是想说bush打伊拉克遭到的反对，少写了几个词～！



建议很好，都收下了，多谢啦！～:lol

那样也是应该论述leader 应该了解人民意见地变化，他们的意见一定程度上随着人民意见地变化而变化
无论怎样都应改突出变化
