2、doses大剂量.1被人认为是一个领导者在我们社会里是一种非常高的赞誉。科罗拉多州的科罗拉多斯普林斯“创造性领导研究中心”的心理学家戴维坎贝尔说：“领导能力已成为普遍适用的维他命C.药片，看起来人们想要成千上万片的剂量。”2 No wonder. Leadership bestows把赠予；把给予power, commands赢得；博得respect and, most important, fosters促进；培养achievement. Unlike vitamins, though, leadership skills cant be easily gulped吞食；吞服down. Th
3、ey must be carefully cultivated培养；磨炼.2这毫不奇怪。领导能力带来权力，赢得尊重，而最重要的是，它带来成就。但与维他命不同的是，领导能力并不是轻易可吞下去的，它们需要仔细培养。3 Contrary to popular belief, most good leaders are made, not born. They hone磨练their skills in their everyday lives. But which do they cultivate? How do they (and how can you) get others to follo
4、w?3和一般的观念相反，绝大多数出色的领导者是后天选就而不是先天生成的。他们在日常的生活中炼就了他们的技能。4 Always give credit. Many leaders note that the most efficient way to get a good performance from others is to treat them like heroes. Giving public credit to someone who has earned it is the best leadership technique in the world. It is also an
5、 act of generosity thats never forgotten.4经常赞扬别人。很多领导人物指出，让别人出色工作的最有效的办法是象对待英雄似地对待他们。世界上最好的领导技巧是当有人取得成就时就当众赞扬他们。这也是一种人们永远不会忘记的慷慨行为。5 Giving credit is more effective than even the most constructive criticism, which often hurts rather than helps.

7、ed risks. The best leaders know that taking a risk is not a thoughtless exercise, says management consultant Marilyn Machlowitz. Sky divers dont go up in an airplane without checking the parachutes降落伞beforehand.6冒预料中的风险。“最好的领导者都知道冒风险并不是一种鲁莽的行为。”管理顾问玛里琳马克洛维茨这样说，“跳伞者在没有检查降落伞是否好用之前是不会上飞机的。”7 Because th

9、失败-但不是一受挫折就躺倒不干，而是跌倒了再爬起来，一切从零开始。8 Show the way. In 1965, Lee Ducat was a Philadelphia homemaker with a child who had just been found to have diabetes糖尿病. Ducat tried to reach out to other mothers of diabetic kids, but at first no one wanted to talk.8以身作则。李杜坎特是费城的一个家庭妇女，1965年，她的一个孩子被确诊为得了糖尿病。杜坎特想和其他

12、ey smile back? she asks. Well, if youre giving, people want to give right back. If youre sure-footed, they want to follow in your footsteps. If youre confident about reaching a goal, others echo that confidence and try to achieve it for you.10她这样问道：“你是否注意到，如果你向人们微笑，他们也会向你报以微笑吗？”是的。如果你给予别人，别人也会给予你。如果
13、你的步伐坚定，人们就会跟从你。如果你对达到一个目标充满信心，其他人就会同样具有信心并会试着和你一起去实现它。11 The best thing you can do is to get followers to mirror your actions by being what you wish them to be.11“你能做的最好的事情是得到这样一些跟随者，他们仿效你的行为，成为你所希望的那种人。”12 Keep the faith. Successful leaders often say that if you trust others to do well, they will.
