Vision and Example
視野與榜樣
[Prompt: Describe your leadership style. What skills do you need to develop to become a more effective leader?]
"I believe that two qualities in particular characterize my leadership style: the ability to establish a clear vision and the ability to set an example. Establishing a clear vision up front allows me to convey a sense of purpose and responsibility to every member of my team. A clear vision also provides a roadmap for setting goals and developing action plans. As each action plan is implemented and each goal is accomplished, project milestones are reached and overall progress is observed. The impression of progress -- as well as evidence thereof -- is key to maintaining a motivated and productive team."
"Once a clear vision has been established, I seek to set an example for my colleagues. Specifically, I work to gain the respect of my team through action. People are more apt to mobilize after they have observed another person in action. When team members realize that I am willing to put in the effort, they feel compelled to act accordingly. In addition, they become more responsive to my leadership and more confident in their own work."
"In order to become a more effective leader, I need to improve my skills in both management and organization. The proper management of resources can make or break a project operating under a tight financial or personnel budget, while efficient organization promotes resource management. A leader who understands organizational philosophy will be a successful resource manager. Since my primary role has traditionally been a resource rather than a manager of resources, I have had few opportunities to practice these skills. These skills will become a necessity as I step into positions of increasing managerial responsibility and organizational leadership."
[注意:描述你的領導風格。如果你要成為你一個更有能力的領導人,你需要擁有什么樣的特質?]
我相信有兩個特質特別能體現(xiàn)我的領導風格特點:選擇一個恰當?shù)囊暯牵龀鲆粋€表率。建立一個清晰的視角,不僅能夠幫助我在給團隊成員傳達信息的時候能夠更有目的和責任性,更可以提供目標的實現(xiàn)和行動的發(fā)展計劃提供一個行動指南。在每一個行動計劃都被執(zhí)行和每一個目標都實現(xiàn)的情況下,那么這個項目就告一段落了,對整個過程也應該有一個評價。整個項目的印象就像是它的證據(jù)一樣,是擁有一個激情的有效的團隊的關鍵。
一旦建立了一個比較清晰的視野,我就會試著給我的隊友們做出一個榜樣。很特別的,我通過行動來贏得團隊的尊敬。在看了別人的表現(xiàn)之后大多數(shù)人都傾向于模仿。當我的團隊看到我的努力之后,他們也會做出同樣的反應。另外,他們開始更好的響應我的領導,而對于他們自己的工作也更自信了。
為了成為更出色的領導人,我希望在管理和策劃方面加強我的能力。在基金緊張或者人事匱乏的情況下是否能對資源有一個恰當?shù)墓芾砜梢詻Q定一個項目的成功或者失敗。一個懂得組織哲學的領導者將會是一個成功的資源管理者。但是由于一直以來我擔當?shù)慕巧琴Y源而不是資源管理者,我很少有機會來鍛煉這方面的能力。在今后逐步踏入管理責任和組織領導的職位過程中,這些技能都是必不可少的。
文章思路:
兩個特質——凸現(xiàn)自身領導力
兩個急需加強的特質——表明自身潛力和準確定位
這個過程,是一個用實際行動檢驗自己觀點的過程,有了新的想法,就付之行動,然后從結果中去總結出新觀點,再指導行動!這也是領導人的特質!
詳細分析:
■關于視野
視野就是作者的一個定位,有了準確的定位,自然才能出來一個合理的計劃,再者嚴格按照計劃進行,自然能收到理想的效果。
■關于榜樣
領導人需要有感染力,或者個人魅力,作者以身作則,開始帶頭實施計劃,通過自身努力得到大家的認可,帶動大家的積極性并相繼效仿,這就是領導特質。
接下來是大家非常認同這位管理者,同時給與他尊重與認可!
在文章中作者沒有很多的去描述自己具有怎么樣的特質,而是通過描述事情的狀況來體現(xiàn)出來,給人身臨其境的感覺,似乎看到了這樣一幅景象:一個管理者很有條理的完成一件事情,效果很好,然后周圍的人做類似的工作就總是先想一想他們的管理人是怎么做的,然后就很自信地去效仿做起來,效果一樣很好!
■結尾點評:
最后一段的總結既能看出作者對領導特質的見地,也體現(xiàn)了他現(xiàn)在對自己的一個定位,自己處于什么位置,以后該怎么做,方向非常清晰,也很謙虛,很實際,給人聽了確實有理!所以文章被評為一篇優(yōu)秀ESSAY確實是實至名歸!?。?
