One of the things I've learned about myself is that I tend to be impatient in solving problems. Instead of listening to the opinions of others, I try right away to find solutions. I have had to learn that other people can give me valuable input and that listening makes me a better leader.

就我对自己的了解,其中有一点就是,我在解决问题时会很不耐烦。我直接去寻找解决方案而不是先听被人的意见。我必须要懂得其他人能给我有价值的建议,而倾听会使我成为更好的领导者。
To be a better listener, I now bring employees from all over the world—including China—to New York City four times a year to hear their suggestions for how to improve our business. I meet with them for a full day and spend most of my time listening. This is one of the most important things I do.
为了成为一个好的倾听者,我现在每年4次把员工从世界各地(包括中国)集合到纽约,以便听他们对改进业务的建议。我会花一整天的时间与他们见面,而我大多数时间主要是倾听。这是我做的最重要的事情之一。
Balance is another essential leadership quality in today's complex world, and it's a quality that is especially critical for women who are juggling many and sometimes competing roles. As a working mother with two children—my daughter Lauren is 14 and my some Jamie is 6—I constantly struggle with the issue of balance. People always ask me how I do it, and my answer is....it's never easy to balance work and family.
在当今复杂的世界中,获取平衡是另一个重要的领导能力,尤其对于女性这个挣扎于各种角色中的群体,有时这些角色还是相互矛盾的。我是一个有着两个孩子的职业母亲,我的女儿Lauren 今年14岁,儿子 Jamie 今年6岁,我经常在如何求得平衡中摸索。别人总问我是怎么做的,我的回答是—在工作和家庭之间取得平衡绝非一件容易的事情。
I'll give you an example. I belong to an executive committee of CEOs from the business world. Recently we were invited to Washington for a meeting with the President of the United States. This was very exciting to me. What an incredible opportunity.
我举个例子。我是一个商界首席执行官委员会的成员。最近我应邀到华盛顿和总统见面,这令我和兴奋。这个机会太难得了。
