微软有不少副总裁,其中有一个叫做Eric Rudder。我很敬仰他和Bill Gates的一段对话。
Eric Rudder:
"Bill, you're absolutely, totally wrong, and here's why..."
“比尔,你绝对的、彻底的错了,让我告诉你为什么……”
Bill Gates:
"You know what? I guess you're right."
“你知道吗?我猜你是对的。”
这份胆识让我仰慕。我就不敢这么对我的总经理这么说。我想我可能会说:
"You are right. Based on that, what's your opinion if I think on this way, and do like that, blah, blah ...?"
“你是对的。基于这点,如果我这么来看,那样去做,……,你的观点怎样?”
惭愧。
