It seems to me that today"s prime-time leader needs a top-5 list that clearly lays out his or her priorities. Whether you"re running a department, a large corporate division, or a multinational company, the leadership 1 that guide your decisions are much the same.
1. Give direction. Stand in front of the mirror and say, "Here is our future" five times without stuttering (结结巴巴). A leader"s most important job at any organization is to 2 out a road map to the future. If you can"t 3 that direction, you"re a manager—not a leader. Your vision must be real, substantive (真实的), and something people can believe in. Have the guts to make decisions while there"s still 4 in them.
2. Create a culture 5 on innovation and cooperation. Innovation is about more than designing fashionable products. It"s also about improving customer experiences and services.
3. Keep it and focused. Identify five key areas that need improvement in your company or division and keep at them until you get them right. Your list might include such things as cost containment, quality, or customer satisfaction. Set 6 targets for each one, and hold people accountable (有责任的) for results. Measure, 7 , and review progress on a timely basis and reward results.
4. Commit to diversity and social 8 . Get beyond your dreaded mission statement and make these values central to how you do business.
5. Lead by example. Keep your moral compass at all times especially when you need to make a difficult decision. Make sure you also have a management team that you trust and 9 . Operate on the credo (信条): Take care of your customers and the people who take care of your customers and the growth and 10 will take care of themselves.
Do all of that, and you"ll have an organization that will make you proud.
