安德鲁·卡内基：安德鲁·卡内基自传·补录 568
安德鲁·卡内基《安德鲁·卡内基自传》· Autobiography of Andrew Carnegie · 领导
My first Rectorial Address to the students of St. Andrews University attracted the attention of the German Emperor, who sent word to me in New York by Herr Ballin that he had read every word of it. He also sent me by him a copy of his address upon his eldest son's consecration. Invitations to meet him followed; but it was not until June, 1907, that I could leave, owing to other engagements. Mrs. Carnegie and I went to Kiel. Mr. Tower, our American Ambassador to Germany, and Mrs. Tower met us there and were very kind in their attentions. Through them we met many of the distinguished public men during our three days' stay there.

白话
卡内基在圣安德鲁斯大学发表校长就职演说，德皇威廉二世读了全文很感兴趣，托人带话并送来自已的演讲。德皇邀请他见面，但卡内基直到1907年6月才成行。他和妻子到基尔，美国驻德大使托尔夫妇接待他们，三天里见了许多德国政要。这段回忆说明：公开表达观点可以带来高层对话的机会，但也要等合适时机。可执行的做法是：认真准备一次公开演讲或文章，它可能为你打开意想不到的交流渠道，但别急于赴约，安排好时间再行动。
上下文
