尼可罗·马基雅维利《君主论》· The Prince · 领导 · 行动 · 心性 · 学习

On the other hand, to keep his servant honest the prince ought to study him, honouring him, enriching him, doing him kindnesses, sharing with him the honours and cares; and at the same time let him see that he cannot stand alone, so that many honours may not make him desire more, many riches make him wish for more, and that many cares may make him dread chances. When, therefore, servants, and princes towards servants, are thus disposed, they can trust each other, but when it is otherwise, the end will always be disastrous for either one or the other.

白话

另一方面,君主也要主动经营臣仆的忠诚:研究他、尊重他、给他财富和恩惠,让他分享荣誉与责任;同时让他明白自己无法独立立足,这样荣誉多也不会贪求更多,财富多也不会更贪,责任重则不敢冒险。双方都这样相处,才能互相信任;否则结局对一方或双方都是灾难。君主不能只要求忠诚,还要用利益和依赖关系来维持忠诚。

上下文

马基雅维利讨论君主与臣仆之间的相互义务,强调忠诚需要制度性的利益安排来维系。

今日一问

你对身边得力的人,是只要求忠诚,还是也给了他足够的尊重和依靠?
