19、t an informal discussion of my insights into the qualities of leadership. Although a good leader needs to have many qualities, in my opinion there are 10 qualities, which are the most important. The most important quality of a leader is to lead. This may sound simple but in reality many people in le

20、adership positions fail to lead. The world is constantly changing and any business needs to move with the times or risk losing ground. To lead means to make difficult decisions. These decisions include setting your own agenda for the organisation such as determining its core values and setting its s

21、trategic direction. Other decisions also include making tough decisions on professional, business and personnel matters. No leader makes the right decision every time but a good leader is not afraid to make decisions because he is not afraid to reverse his decision and take remedial action where nec

22、essary. A bad leader is one who shies away from making decisions and simply wait for things to happen. Secondly, a leader is expected to set the strategy for the organisation. How does a good leader choose the right strategy for his organisation? A good leader must develop a thorough analysis of the

23、 strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats of the organisation. He must evaluate carefully the pros and cons of each alternative strategy. He should also consider the short-term as well as the long-term impact of each option. What I cannot over-emphasise is that a leader must adopt a strategy

24、 for his organisation. He cannot simply copy others. Thirdly, a key attribute of a good leader is to be able to communicate internally and externally. He must maintain a high level of visibility. Internally, the leader must communicate his strategy and vision to every member of the firm. Externally,

25、 the leader is the face of the organisation and must project a positive image for the organisation. He should act as the spokesman on important issues for the organisation. pause Now listen to the recording again. pause That is the end of Part One. You now have 20 seconds to check your answers. paus

31、o the two tasks. pause Man: I organise a contracting project, and secretly hire some working staff from other companies, in the hope of sparing some costs. One day, the contractor told me halfway through that it couldnt be done before the deadline because he was terribly sick. He said that he at lea

32、st needed another two more weeks to recover. Or I should look for another group of staff so as to minimise the loss. This contractors staff had to be paid for longer. I did not tell my boss about the problem in case he would be angry with me. And I took a chance that the contractor would be better s

33、oon. I think I should be more cautious next time and do not make any decisions all by myself or at least consult with my colleagues and the boss. Whatever I do, I should have a back-up plan in order to make sure of the sustainability of the project. Woman: I used to work in an import-export company

34、as a sales manager. My jobs were to contact the customers and liaise them regularly to see if there were cooperative opportunities. Besides, I launched a permanent forum in the weekends and created more opportunities for the boss from different corporations to exchange views with each other and enha

35、nced the relationships. But one time, during the preparations before a meeting, accidentally, I sent,instead of the invitation cards, the companys clients materials to all the bosses. My corporation exposed a great loss. The corporation made a comprehensive survey about the incident, but no cne was

36、identified. My boss was furious, so were our clients. All I wanted was to hide away until it all blew over. But, I felt so guilty that I bravely told them the truth and I quit. Man: Im an accountant working for Sharon Investment Corp, Ltd. I just graduated from university and then directly came to t

37、his company. I think I am very lucky, you know, especially, in times of this bad economic situation. Lots of people are losing their jobs every day. The people here are very friendly and easy-going. Except one thing, one day, the manager came to me and asked me to do a favour for him. Recently, our

38、corporation has launched a new product and put a lot of money in the project. The manager has promised the Board a large profit. But on the contrary, the sales this month are devastating. So the manager asked me if I could help to make a fake balance sheet. He is a good guy and helps me a lot. He en

39、sured me that the sales would turn out to be good in two months. I didnt turn him down and pray to God that the products would grab the market sooner. Woman: I used to work as an sales staff in Derek Corp, Ltd. My job was to contact clients, order deals and negotiate with the customers. Since 4 mont

40、hs ago I came here, I redoubled my efforts and really contributed a lot to the company. But one time, I made a huge mistake. It happened because Id calculated how much we should charge a customer for some goods we were going to export on a regular basis, and I forget to charge the agents commission,

41、 which was a lot of money. By the time I realised the loss, it was too late. So, later, I tried to increase the price of the commodities and didnt tell my boss in the hope that it would soon make up the loss. And it made me realise that doing business is no small task. Man: Well, now its all over, I

42、 can only hope weve learnt the right lessons from the experience. This time I really get an idea about the importance of communication skills seriously .

43、a large deal with Orland Company. My boss wanted me to draft an invitation card to the boss of the Orland Company. According to his requirement, I sent the invitation card, but to the wrong place. So the meeting was a disaster. And the boss of the Orland Company thought if such a small mistakes coul

44、d happen, what about a 10 million project? So, the deal was over. The boss didnt blame me. But I am extremely guilty of the mistake that I have made.

47、el is? Man: Yes, well it sounds like someone who is altruistic, but in fact a business angel expects to make a good return on their money.

48、 we group together to make a syndicated deal. Woman: Who act as business angels usually?
