A Lecture: Understanding Life and Leadership

By Zeng Yi

On July 18, 2013, in Gongcheng 1105, Mr. William Kassner gave a lecture about leadership. Students from both the School of Foreign Languages and the School of Engineering Technology attended the lecture.

Mr. Kassner first of all raised a question, “What will you do if you get lost?” He told the students that a leader was just like a map, which could lead lost people to the right direction. Not only did a leader played a significant role in a team, but also leadership contributed a lot to teamwork. He pointed out 13 qualities for leadership: openness, supportiveness, motivation, empowerment, honesty, ability to delegate, communication, humor, confidence, commitment, positive attitude, creativity, intuition, ability to inspire and vision. When he accounted for how to be motivated, he gave 5 tips. First, you need to encourage your team numbers have positive attitudes; second, communicate well with others; third, set reachable goals; fourth, give frequent feedback; fifth, reward people with good jobs. To illustrate empowerment, he played a game with his team, which showed the significance of trust between team numbers. Mr. Kassner told us that an outstanding leader should trust his team numbers at any time.

The lecture was concluded in a relaxing atmosphere. Students not only learned a lot about leadership, but also earned a precious friendship with the team of American students.
