【英文演讲】再贴一篇我刚刚讲完的演讲稿。这次因为公司production有问题,根本没时间演练,所以演讲时根本没有自信。但是,我这篇稿子和表演上的心思还是可以的,只是演讲稿本身没办法体现表演的形式。

Why do you need to master leadership skills?

You do not want to be a leader, so you don’t need to know leadership skills? But what happens when your spouse does not listen to you, when your kids do not obey your rules? You feel sad and angry, you yell and scream. You are driven by them! Why don’t you lead them? You need to learn leadership skills.

[1’]
What is Leadership?

Leadership is the ability to influence a group of people toward the achievement of common goals.

A simple goal like “the family needs to leave at 6pm sharp for trick or treating” is chosen by whoever leads. That requires the leader to “have vision to shape the groups goals.”

We have the goal now, we need to know whether the group are capable to achieve it. If the little kid eats way too slow, train him so we can leave before 6pm. The leader takes the responsibility to improve the capacity of the group.

We have the goal, we have the capacity, but if sister and brother fight for the candy bags, you still cannot leave before 6. The leader needs to improve the groups’ structure, climate and communication.

We have the goal, we have the capacity, we have the cooperation, but if kids are side tracked by pets, still we cannot achieve the goal. Leader needs to Influence the group to become focused and productive.

[3’]
In a nutshell -
Leaders know what they want and why.
Leaders know how to share their goals with others and gain their cooperation and support.
Leaders know how to achieve their goals.


Are Leaders Made or Born?
Leaders are made and are also born …… Ever met someone who wasn’t born?
To become leaders, we need to learn…

Leadership Skills

[4’]
Good tips are like good medicine to make you robust. (use medicine bottle as a prop), try these pills if you have Leadership problems.

It is better to lead from behind and to put others in front.
Never tell people how to do things. Tell them what to do.
A man who wants to lead the orchestra must turn his back on the crowd.
Great leaders are almost always great simplifiers, who can cut through argument to offer a solution everybody can understand.

[5’]
Leading is about the art of Directing and Supporting.
(use the same prop, tell audience bottle = leader, cap = members, or the other way round when necessary, use gestures. )
Directing is pulling the team to leader’s destination, and that is the common goal as well. (pull to the right), this is good when the group is weak but the leader is strong. Leader tells the group what to do.

Supporting is to let group find out their destination (push the bottle up to where their goal and therefore the common goal is) then leader supports them.

If you give both Directing and Supporting, you lead by Coaching ---- have two-way communication, but leader makes decision (push and pull the bottle to up right corner).

You can give Low Supporting and Low Directing ---- let them make their own decision and run their own show. This is called Lead by Delegating.(follow where the bottle goes). That means, you still lead even you have no idea about what they do, as long as within you have good leadership skills. Use it more when your kids are taller than you..

Now go back home to lead your spouse and other family members. If these skills do not work, I’ll tell you two powerful skills to maintain your leadership ---- yelling and fist.

To summarize,
Leaders know what they want and why, know how to share their goals and gain cooperation and support and how to achieve their goals.

Remember to lead by Directing, Coaching, Supporting and Delegating… and more important thing is Influence

    • 向8导学习!
      Leadership Skills 就是领导老婆,孩子的技术!
      • 这个,举例子而已。其实,在家里,谁凶,谁拳头硬,谁就当家。
        • 鼓爪!这是8导至今为止最牛的话!你家谁最凶?我家...
          不好意思告诉你! :-)...
    • 强烈支持您!
      喜欢第一段。在西方呆久了,发现leadership spirit/skills相当重要。不是狭隘的要当领导的意思。
      不喜欢第四段,用治病的药作比喻,而且还晃悠药瓶子。用锻炼健身恐怕好得多。
      • 我把那些不允许讲错的缄言贴在药瓶子上了,省得背错。
    • 你是写大纲然后演讲,还是背诵?
      • 我是每个字都写好,背诵。英文不过关啊,起步就得这样。
    • If it is a 7 minitues speech in Toastmaster program, the speech seems too long..
      i would suggest to add some personal example into the speech instead of just talk in theory.
      • 每篇要求都不同。
    • 写的真好,还没忘了搞笑:)不容易,赞一个!就是观点有点分散,到最后好像什么都搭到了一点又什么都没讲透。
      • 是的。
    • leadership家庭体现中最直观的就是孩子的教育。如何建立家长的权威,如何摆正孩子和家长的冲突,如何处理孩子不听话的时候。比如孩子不浩好吃饭,不同的岁数的孩子需要采用不同的方式。这就体现一个家长的管教的能力和智慧。
      • 最近我在看一本牛X书叫 : Dare To Descipline
    • “Why do you need to master leadership skills?” 说这句的时候一定记得要一气呵成,中间不要随便停顿...敌人思想很复杂的.....
    • 开始做正经事了?怎么回事?找到红颜知己了?
      BTW, you have the same issue as mine. Try to find a native speaker to review this for you. It will be very helpful. Get a lady in your company, buy her a lunch. No guy will want to do this all the time for you. It just takes too much effort, and looks weird.

      Another way is to find a college course to improve your written English. e.g. www.gandy.ca, in Mississauga.
