Leadership is not just about what you know or do—it’s also about who you are

★ 領(lǐng)導(dǎo)不只和知識及舉止有關(guān)--也跟個人本質(zhì)有關(guān) ★

Nowadays, it seems like everybody wants to be a leader. Countless books about how to manage a company or influence others fill bookstores. But one needn’t be a CEO or politician to be a leader. Former U.S. President John Adams said, “If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader.” The key to becoming such a leader lies in character. People follow only those whom they respect, trust and admire. What character traits does such a leader have? Below are five of the most important.

今日，似乎每個人都想當(dāng)領(lǐng)導(dǎo)者。書店中滿是教導(dǎo)如何管理企業(yè)或是影響他人的書籍，數(shù)都數(shù)不清。但并不需要是執(zhí)行長或是政治人物，才能成為領(lǐng)導(dǎo)者。前美國總統(tǒng)約翰.亞當(dāng)斯說：「如果你的行為能鼓舞別人有更多的夢想、更多的學(xué)習(xí)、更多的行動和更多的轉(zhuǎn)變，你就是一個領(lǐng)導(dǎo)者?！钩蔀檫@樣的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)者端視領(lǐng)導(dǎo)者的品格。人們只會跟隨他們尊敬、信任和景仰的人。這樣的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)者人格特質(zhì)有何獨到之處?以下是五項最重要的。
