Getting therefore together in an irregular assembly, they chose Heraclides their admiral; but when Dion came forward, and told them, that conferring this trust upon Heraclides was in effect to withdraw that which they had granted him, for he was no longer their generalissimo if another had the command of the navy, they repealed their order, and, though much against their wills, canceled the new appointment. When this business was over, Dion invited Heraclides to his house, and pointed out to him, in gentle terms, that he had not acted wisely or well to quarrel with him upon a punctilio of honor, at a time when the least false step might be the ruin of all; and then, calling a fresh assembly of the people, he there named Heraclides admiral, and prevailed with the citizens to allow him a life-guard, as he himself had.

白话

叙拉古人临时开会,选赫拉克利德当海军司令。狄翁站出来说:你们把海军交给他,等于把我这个总司令的权力抽空了,因为海军不归我管,我就不是真正的统帅。大家虽然不情愿,还是撤销了任命。事后狄翁把赫拉克利德请到家里,温和地指出:局势这么危险,一点小错就可能全盘皆输,你为面子跟我争,不明智。然后他重新召开大会,亲自提名赫拉克利德当海军司令,还说服公民给他配卫队,跟自己一样。狄翁的做法是:先收回权力避免指挥混乱,再主动给对手面子和实权,把内斗变成合作。

上下文

狄翁是柏拉图的学生,驱逐僭主后成为叙拉古领袖,这段讲他与部将赫拉克利德争权又和解。

今日一问

当你和同伴争权时,能不能先收回关键权力,再主动给对方一个体面的位置?
