claire_wen \$m[1]:是的!不能再同意你更多了!
其實我在公司也漸漸發現一些事情, 也發現自己的個性太硬了.
總覺得事必躬親, 巧的是, 我的上司也是.
之前會常抱怨老闆不給我發揮的機會, 但是自己不也是不常給同事機會.
其實從那時候起, 一直到現在也是, 總是反覆思考, 到底什麼叫做leadership?什麼叫做team work?如何當個team player?
剛開始的想法是, 如果leader什麼都不會, 那一定會被team member看不起. 而且也覺得, 要夠格當上leader, 就是一定要做過很多重要事情. 可是當被promoted是她而不是我時, 我開始有點不服了. 老實說(也只敢在這裡老實說:P), 我自認比她強, 也有數據確實可以證明, 但是不懂為何是她? 當然背後原因太多了. 但是我那時候想法變的有點邪惡, 我只顧著做我自己的工作, 並沒有想與她太多交集. 也不會有太多討論, 一切都只有報告給她聽, 而且報告內容都是幾乎確定, 由不得她改的那種. 那樣當下可能很爽, 然後也開始自大的替她可憐: 如果手下都是強者, 那要如何管? 根本就管不動! 然後為了要讓自己夠格當上leader, 我也會爭著做很多事情. 後來, 也發生了很多事情, 我也慢慢學到教訓, 我也為之前的想法感到可恥. 如果說當上team leader就等於leadership, 我想我是玷污了leadership的涵義. leadership是什麼? 一堆商學院網站都寫的清清楚楚, 而且這也不是我要回覆的目的. 而是我發現了平衡的道理!可能就是前面大大說的"leverage"!
人不是萬能, 不可能親自處理每一件事情! 而且事必躬親只會讓事情搞砸!或者更可怕的是, 會更加拘泥於巷弄而走不出格局. 所以team的觀念才會產生. 讓事情更有效率運作. 有時候真的得要選擇放手, 才是對自己有好處啊!
ps. totally agree the concept of people networking. however, I can't figure out which schools have strong people networking? I mean networking in Taiwan except M7. :D
Suddenly found auther's the powerful motivation for leadseship and soft skills in MBA
leadership is about empathy
about how to soften yourself and embrace your partners
about conflict solving and compromise
it's about delegation
but it's buttom-up, not top-down
it's about collaboration, not about popularity or individual significance
it's about diverse-background communication
at the end, leader is a servant
not a manager
it's about growing others
transforming your capacity to others
grow others to become leaders
leaders are not necessarily the most capable people
but it's necessary to show your weakness from time to time
to make yourself accessible to others
and have neat grasp of knowing when to keep quiet and low-key
set stage for others
or you'll be a leader without followers
