布克·T·华盛顿:力争上游·摘录 187
布克·T·华盛顿《力争上游》· Up from Slavery · 领导
When we seemed at the end of our resources, so far as securing money was concerned, something occurred which showed the greatness of General Armstrong—something which proved how far he was above the ordinary individual. When we were in the midst of great anxiety as to where and how we were to get funds for the new building, I received a telegram from General Armstrong asking me if I could spend a month travelling with him through the North, and asking me, if I could do so, to come to Hampton at once. Of course I accepted General Armstrong’s invitation, and went to Hampton immediately. On arriving there I found that the General had decided to take a quartette of singers through the North, and hold meetings for a month in important cities, at which meetings he and I were to speak. Imagine my surprise when the General told me, further, that these meetings were to be held, not in the interests of Hampton, but in the interests of Tuskegee, and that the Hampton Institute was to be responsible for all the expenses.

白话
筹款陷入困境时,阿姆斯特朗将军发电报邀华盛顿陪他北上一个月,到重要城市演讲。华盛顿到汉普顿才发现,将军组织四重唱巡回演出,所有会议是为塔斯基吉学院筹款,费用由汉普顿学院承担。核心是:真正的领导者会用自己的资源帮后辈铺路,而不是只守着自己机构。做法是:看到更大目标时,主动分享平台和资源,把后辈介绍给关键人脉,短期看是付出,长期能壮大整个事业。
