GE伊梅尔特谢幕，他留下一份领导力法则｜首席人才官

 设定高标准目标

你必须着眼未来，并有明确的概念；设定一个高标准，让员工负起责任，愿意为维护名誉而战。每时每刻都要“保持警觉”。恭敬有礼并善于激励他人；竞争力强。始终专注于重要之事。

Set purpose with high standards. You must always conceptualize the future; have a point of view. Seta high bar and hold people accountable. Be willing to fight in the alley topreserve reputation. “Be on watch” every minute of every day. Be respectful andmotivating; be a competitor. Always focus on the important stuff. 

 困难重重时，亦能做出决策

有些事，没有人想做。诸如：减少红利、出售广播环球公司（NBCU）、收购阿尔斯通公司（Alstom）。但作为 CEO，你绝不能畏惧评判或批评。要记住，每个工作或决定看似容易，直到你真正面临抉择才知其难处。我（历经万难）才明白：你控制不了事件本身，但你可以控制自己。但是，好的领导者会采取最积极的行动方式。

Make the really tough decisions. These are the ones that no one really wants to do: cut the dividend,sell NBCU, buy Alstom. As CEO you must not fear judgment or criticism.Remember, every job or decision looks easy until you are the one on the line.And, always take the high road. I learned (the hard way) that you can’t controlevents; you can control yourself. But good leaders choose to take the highroad.

 明天终将来临，

不要为曾经的投资后悔

长期目标不只是由一系列短期目标组成，它更是一种思维习惯和态度。工业互联网和增材制造将在未来定义通用电气公司。不要放弃。尽管有时我们的股东有超越流程的不同视角或价值观，但坚信正确的方向会带领 GE 业务创造最好的未来。优秀的商业人士会重视过程。

The future comes. Never apologize forinvesting in it. The long term is about more thana series of short terms. It is about ideas. The Industrial Internet and Additive Manufacturing will define GE in the future. Don’t give up. Our best GE businesses have had a “True North” to build the future. Sometimes our ownershave a different time horizon or value metrics more than the process. Goodbusiness people value the journey as well.

 保持观念与现实同步

很多事情没有看起来那么简单容易或直接了当；没有数据支撑的事实并非真相。“有时人们喜欢一吐为快”，并称之为“直率”。他们自己感觉很好，但别人却感觉更糟糕了。始终保持透明，但要提供解决方案。谨记事实是通往进步的道路，而非做出判断的途径。诉说真相需要提供事实和背景。

Keep perception and reality in sync. This is not about candor; that is the easy part. Facts without context isn’t truth. Sometimes people want to “unload everything on their mind”and call it candor. They feel better, everyone else feels worse. Always betransparent, but bring solutions. Remember that facts are a path to progress,not a way to pass judgment. Truth telling requires facts and context.

 做大事、拘小节、

虑长远、顾眼前、思虑周全

最好的领导人是多才多艺的思想家，必须重视策略和细节。必须有 10~20 年后的世界观。说话有所“保留”，以便让他人做出决定。

Act big and small, long and short; keep a lotof thoughts to yourself. The best leaders are versatile thinkers. Must be comfortable with strategy and details. Must have a world viewthat is 10-20 years out; and quarterly. Leave a few things “unsaid”, so that others can have the last word.

 授权

相信你的团队。当团队目标明确并获得授权时，我们发展的速度最快。我们的成功举措……全球化、数字化、绿色创想……背后都有高效强大的团队，应该将组织权力进行分配。

Deputize others. Trust your team. We move fastest when teams are purposeful and empowered. Our winning initiatives … global, digital, Ecomagination … all hadstrong teams that could move quickly and leverage our scale. Organization power should be distributed.

  我们要在市场打胜仗，

而不是在会议室

人们容易局限于公司内部。我真心相信客户决定我们的成败。在你的身边聚集一批会为未来谈判的“观察员”。你必须倾听他们的建议。愿意进行实验并迎接失败。成功需要实干而非空谈。通用电气公司在订单和市场份额上创历史新高，将随着时间的推移而得到回报。领导市场必须有很强的存在感，如氧气一般。

We win in markets, not conference rooms. It is easy to get trapped inside the company. I truly believe that customers determine our success. Surround yourself with “scouts” who willnegotiate for the future. You must listen to them. Be willing to experiment andfail. But winning requires doing and not talking. GE has a record high backlogand market share that will pay off over time. Leading in markets must beexistential, like oxygen.

 喜欢工作多于头衔

我为你们和投资人工作。远离中心任务……参加会议、外部理事会等……的每一天都是浪费时间。我从未太过在意 CEO 这个头衔，但我喜欢作为 CEO 所做的众多工作。任何工作都在我之上。在通用电气公司，重要的是目标和承诺。

Like the work more than the title. I worked for you and the investors. Every day away from the central task … at conferences, external councils, etc. … is a day off of mission. Inever cared that much about being a CEO, but I loved the multitude of tasks that a CEO did. No job was ever beneath me. At GE, purpose and commitment matter.

 永不言弃

迈克・泰森说：“每个人都有战略，直到他们鼻子上挨了一拳。”我知道我们可以变得更好。领导是一场进入自己心灵深处的旅程。你能学得多快？你可以改变多少？你想给什么？你将忍受什么？

Never give up. Mike Tyson said, “Everyone has a strategy until they get punched in the nose.” I know we can get better. Leadership is a deep journey into yourself. How fast can you learn? How much can you change? What do you want to give? What will you put up with?

 时刻展现领导力

充分发挥潜能，对工作心怀感激，对员工和他们的岗位亦然。我与 GE 团队日夜相守，共进退……他们在我心中的地位不可取代。我从未见到有比飞机发动机或某个医疗设备的工程师更敬业的人了。你必须建立人际关系。在任何领域，顶尖人才都想把事情做大做好。通用电气公司的领导者需能关注每个员工，和他们一起努力做好工作。

Lead in the moment. Give fully of yourself…always appreciate work, workers and jobs Every minute I was with the GE team … they were the most important thing in the world to me. I have never met someone more dedicated to what they do than an engineer whoworks on an aircraft engine or a piece of healthcare equipment. You must buildpersonal relationships. Top performers -- in any field -- want do work that matters, and they want to be part of something bigger. Leading GE requires anability to focus on each person, helping them do their best work together.
