Answers
Answer:
BILL GATES
Gates has been said to avoid conflict in professional contexts. Diplomacy is needed to inspire loyalty and dedication, but it can just as easily diminish the perception of authority. How does the tech magnate account for this potential liability?
He reserves his passion for ideals and the central objective of his company. When a leader’s vision remains both clear and consistent, the daily tasks are constantly changing to accommodate; driving productivity and net profit. On keeping his team engaged, a 30-year-old Gates once said:
“The work we’re doing. it’s not like, you know we’re doing the same thing all day long. We go into our offices and think up new programs, we get together in meetings,….we talk to customers, there’s so much variety and there are always new things going on. And I don’t think they will ever come a time when that will be boring.”
ELON MUSK
Co-founder, CEO and product architect of Tesla, Inc., Elon Musk motivates his team with the promise of new horizons.
The SpaceX engineer welcomes the potential for failure and expects his staff does the same, saying in a recent interview, “Failure is an option here. If things are not failing you are not innovating.”
Although Musk demonstrates fidelity to his vision he’s a big proponent of receiving evaluations from his colleagues, irrespective of their rung on the ladder. How can you expect workers to devote themselves to your mission if they’re not permitted to have a say in operations?
“I think it’s very important to have a feedback loop, where you’re constantly thinking about what you’ve done and how you could be doing it better. I think that’s the single best piece of advice: constantly think about how you could be doing things better and questioning yourself.”
