领导类的话题考的不多,但是一旦考到了我们也需要有内容写,平时没有积累的话当然不行。以下就是06年开始的到现在关于leader话题的考题:
难度系数四颗星

第一步:我们先来来看一个好的开头
Leadershipis“oneofthemostobservedandleastunderstoodphenomenaon
earth”,wroteonemaninapositiontoknow.Thereisavisceralfascination
withleadersandtheircharacter,andwiththegreatissuethatsurroundsthem:
cantheybemadeoraretheyonlyeverborn?
许多同学常常会纠结于如何写一个吸引眼球的开头,这篇文章就是个非常典型的“格言
+提问开头”,类似于托福文章开头中的background的部分,然后我们只需要再在后面加上一句表达自己观点的句子,这就可以作为一个比较好的开头放在写作中了。
第二步:看一下对主体段展开有用的素材:
Thereisnogeneralagreementaboutthequalitiesofaleader:
FieldMarshalMontgomerythoughtthataleader“musthaveinfectious
optimism,andthedeterminationtopersevereinthefaceofdifficulties.He
mustalsoradiateconfidence,evenwhenhehimselfisnottoocertainofthe
oue”.
DavidOgilvy,founderofanadvertisingagency,andhimselfaleaderof
somequality,said:Greatleadersalmostalwaysexudeself-confidence.Theyare
neverpetty.Theyareneverbuck-passers.Theypickthemselvesupafterdefeat…
ThegreatleadersIhaveknownhavebeencuriouslyplicatedmen.
第三步:我们来写点东西:
Whateverthefieldsofworking,onethingiscertain:excellent
communicationskillsolelycanhardlybetheexclusivecriteriontoevaluate
one’sperformanceinleadership.Withoutinfectiousoptimismandthe
determinationtopersevereinthefaceofdifficulties,onemayfailtosteer
histeamoutoftroubles.Withoutradiatingconfidenceinfrontofuncertainties
andchallenges,onemayonlyendupwitnessingadestabilizingeffectona
workforceandprojectedefficienciesundelivered.
第四步:关于写好上面的问题我们仍然需要知道的素材:
TheleadershipofpeoplelikeAlfredP.Sloan,thelegendarybossof
GeneralMotors,however,owedmoretothestructureandsystemsthattheyputin
placeintheirorganizationsthanitdidontheindividual'spersonality.
HenryFordII'ssuccessinrevitalizinghisfamily'sfirmaftertheSecond
WorldWardependedlargelyonhisreorganizationofthepany.Themanhimself
wasajet-settingplayboywhorarelymettheDavidOgilvystandardsofagreat
leader.
第五步:我们仍然需要一个总结:
Leadership其实不一定来自于先天的Personality,后天的Management也是绝对一个领导成功与否的重要因素。
Soanyway,atalentedpeople’leadershipisnotsomuchaqualitybornby
natureasaskillacquiredbytraining.Becauseleadersandmanagersare
basicallydifferent,theconditionsfavorabletoonemaybeinimicaltothe
growthoftheother.
