1、What is the most valuable contribution employees make to their companies, knowledge or judgment? I say judgment. Knowledge, no matter how broad, is useless until it is applied. And application takes judgment, which involves something of a sixth sense—a high performance of the mind. This

2、 raises interesting questions about the best training for today's business people. As Daniel Goleman suggests in his new book, Emotional Intelligence, the latest scientific findings seem to indicate that intelligent but inflexible people don't have the right stuff in an age when the a

3、daptive bility is the key to survival. In a recent cover story, Time magazine sorted through the current thinking on intelligence and reported, "New brain research suggests that emotions, not IQ, may be the true measure of human intelligence." The basic significance of the emotional in

4、telligence that Time called "EQ" was suggested by management expert Karen Boylston: "Customers are telling businesses, 'I don't care if every member of your staff graduated from Harvard. I will take my business and go where I am understood and treated with respect.'" If the evolution

5、ary pressures of the marketplace are making EQ, not IQ, the hot ticket for business success, it seems likely that individuals will want to know how to cultivate it. I have a modest proposal: Embrace a highly personal practice aimed at improving these four adaptive skills. Raising consciousn

6、ess. I think of this as thinking differently on purpose. It's about noticing what you are feeling and thinking and escaping the conditioned confines of your past. Raise your consciousness by catching yourself in the act of thinking as often as possible. Routinely take note of

7、 your emotions and ask if you're facing facts or avoiding them. Using imagery. This is what you see Olympic ski racers doing before entering the starting gate. With their eyes closed and bodies swaying, they run the course in their minds first, which improves their performance. You

8、 can do the same by setting aside time each day to dream with passion about what you want to achieve. Considering and reconsidering events to choose the most creative response to them. When a Greek philosopher said 2,000 years ago that it isn't events that matter but our opinion of

9、 them, this is what he was talking about. Every time something important happens, assign as many interpretations to it as possible, even crazy ones. Then go with the interpretation most supportive of your dreams. Integrating the perspectives of others. Brain research shows that our

10、 view of the world is limited by our genes and the experiences we've had. Learning to <1>incorporate the useful perspectives of others is nothing less than a form of enlarging your senses. The next time someone interprets something differently from you—say, a controversial political even

11、t—pause to reflect on the role of life experience and consider it a gift of perception. The force of habit—literally the established wiring of your brain—will pull you away from practicing these skills. Keep at it, however, because they are based on what we're learning about the mechanism o

12、f the mind. Within the first six months of life the human brain doubles in capacity. It doubles again by age four and then grows rapidly until we reach sexual maturity. The body has about a hundred billion nerve cells, and every experience <2>triggers a brain response that literally shape

13、s our senses. The mind, we now know, is not confined to the brain but is distributed throughout the body's universe of cells. Yes, we do think with our hearts, brains, muscles, blood and bones. During a single crucial three-week period during our teenage years, chemical activity in the brain

14、is cut in half. That done, we are "biologically wired" with what one of the nation's leading brain researchers calls our own "world view". He says it is impossible for any two people to see the world exactly alike. So unique is the personal experience that people would understand the worl

15、d differently. However, it is not only possible to change your world view, he says, it's actually easier than overcoming a drug habit. But you need a discipline for doing it. Hence, the method recommended here. No, it's not a curriculum in the sense that an MBA is. But the late

16、st research seems to imply that without the software of emotional maturity and self-knowledge, the hardware of academic training alone is worth less and less. 員工對公司最有價(jià)值的貢獻(xiàn)是什么，是知識還是判斷力？ 我說是判斷力。 不管知識面有多寬，如果得不到應(yīng)用，就毫無用處。 而知識的應(yīng)用需要判斷力，判斷力涉及某種第六感覺──思維的高度運(yùn)用。 這就提出了關(guān)于現(xiàn)今企業(yè)界人士最佳培訓(xùn)課程的有趣問題。 正如丹尼爾·戈?duì)柭谒男聲?/p>

17、《情感智能》中所說，最新的科研結(jié)果似乎表明，在一個(gè)適應(yīng)能力對生存很關(guān)鍵的年代，聰明但缺乏靈活性的人并不具備這種能力。 《時(shí)代周刊》最近的封面故事列舉了目前關(guān)于智能的一些看法，報(bào)道說：“新的人腦研究表明，衡量人的智能的真正尺度可能是情感，而不是智商?！? 《時(shí)代周刊》稱之為“情商”的情感智能的根本意義可從企業(yè)管理專家卡倫·波爾斯頓的話中窺見一斑：“顧客對企業(yè)說‘我可不在乎是否你的每個(gè)員工都畢業(yè)于哈佛，我只愿意與能理解我、尊重我的企業(yè)打交道?！? 如果說市場的進(jìn)化發(fā)展所造成的壓力使得情商，而不是智商，成為企業(yè)走向成功的通行證，那么，人們可能很希望懂得如何培養(yǎng)情商。 我有個(gè)小小的建議：

18、積極進(jìn)行自我訓(xùn)練，努力提高以下四項(xiàng)適應(yīng)性技能： 提高意識程度。 我把這看作是思考時(shí)有意獨(dú)辟蹊徑。 這是指注意自己感受到什么，在想什么，擺脫過去帶給自己的種種限制。 盡可能多地注意思考時(shí)的自己，以此來提高意識程度。 要習(xí)慣性地注意自己的情感，問問自己是在面對還是在逃避事實(shí)。 利用想象。 這是奧運(yùn)會滑雪賽手在進(jìn)入起跑門之前所做的。 他們閉上眼，擺動(dòng)身體，在頭腦中先把整個(gè)滑雪道過一遍，這能提高他們在實(shí)際比賽中的表現(xiàn)。 我們也可以這樣做，每天留出時(shí)間來帶著激情想象一番自己想要獲得的成就。 反復(fù)考慮各種事件，并對它們做出最富創(chuàng)意的反應(yīng)。 兩千年前的一位希臘哲學(xué)家說過，重

19、要的不是事件本身，而是我們對事件的看法，他說的正是此意。 每當(dāng)發(fā)生重要事情時(shí)，要盡可能從多方面去看問題，甚至作異乎尋常的理解， 然后照著最有利于自己理想的那種理解去做。 綜合考慮他人的看法。 大腦研究表明，人們對外界的看法受到遺傳基因及個(gè)人經(jīng)歷的局限。 學(xué)會吸納他人有用的觀點(diǎn)是一種擴(kuò)大自己見識的方式。 下次如果有人對某件事與你有不同的看法，比如對某個(gè)有爭議的政治事件，停下來想想這其實(shí)是生活閱歷使然，應(yīng)把它看作一種感知能力的饋贈(zèng)。 習(xí)慣的力量──確切說就是頭腦里已建立的思維方式──會妨礙你操練這些技能。 然而要堅(jiān)持下去，因?yàn)樗鼈兪且詫λ季S機(jī)制的認(rèn)識為基礎(chǔ)的。 人腦的

20、容量在生命開始的最初六個(gè)月增長了一倍， 到四歲時(shí)又增長一倍，其后大腦的容量迅速發(fā)展，直到性成熟為止。 人體有大約1000億個(gè)神經(jīng)細(xì)胞，每一次經(jīng)歷都會激發(fā)腦部的反應(yīng)，而這種反應(yīng)實(shí)際上影響著我們的感知。 我們現(xiàn)在知道，思維活動(dòng)并不局限在腦部，而是遍布于全身的細(xì)胞中。 是的，我們的確是在用心、用腦、用肌肉、用血液和骨骼來思考。 我們的青少年階段有一個(gè)為期三周的關(guān)鍵時(shí)期，此時(shí)腦部的化學(xué)反應(yīng)活動(dòng)一分為二。 完成了這一變化，正如國內(nèi)一位重要的大腦研究人員所說，我們“對外界的看法”就“在生理上定型了”。 他說任何兩個(gè)人都不可能對外界有完全一樣的看法。 個(gè)人的體驗(yàn)都是獨(dú)一無二的，因此人們對

21、外界的理解都不相同。 然而，他說，人們對外界的看法不僅有可能改變，而且實(shí)際上比克服藥物依賴性還容易。 但是要想做到這一點(diǎn)需要訓(xùn)練。 因此我們推薦了上述做法。 這并不是像MBA那樣的課程。 但最新的研究似乎表明，缺乏情感成熟和自我了解這一軟件單靠純學(xué)術(shù)性的培訓(xùn)這一硬件是沒有用的 unit 10 Section A Vocabulary III. 1. incorporate 2. triggered 3. perspectives 4. cultivating 5. confine 6. capacity 7.
