John Maxwell: 我认为，领导者应该将精力集中在与合适的人相处和坦诚沟通上。与那些能给予你无条件支持、为你生活增添价值、不断成长、热爱生活并能给你带来能量的人在一起，能极大地提升你的个人和职业生涯。同时，要勇于表达自己的想法，说出需要说的话，即使这可能涉及到挑战或困难的对话，因为这有助于建立更强的关系和促进共同成长。我鼓励大家使用包括天赋之声、品格之声、经验之声、内心之声、梦想之声、提问之声和领导之声在内的多种声音，从而更全面地与他人沟通，并实现个人和团队的共同进步。 Mark Cole: 我深信，与合适的人相处对个人的成长至关重要。我过去常常与那些看不到我潜力的人为伍，但自从我加入了John Maxwell的团队，我周围的人都专注于我的潜力，这极大地改变了我的生活。此外，无条件的爱是一种非常重要的品质，它意味着无论你做什么，都不会失去他人的爱和支持。在领导力方面，我也常常因为害怕伤害他人而不敢说出需要说的话，但我意识到，坦诚沟通对于团队的共同成长至关重要。我们需要信任团队成员的能力，并勇于进行艰难的对话。 Chris Robinson: 我认为，与合适的人相处，远离负能量的人，是实现个人转变的关键。我非常认同无条件爱的价值，它意味着无论你犯什么错误，都不会失去他人的爱和支持。在团队合作中，坦诚沟通至关重要，我们需要勇于表达自己的想法，即使这可能涉及到挑战或困难的对话。同时，我们也需要注意沟通的方式，避免造成不必要的伤害。通过坦诚沟通，我们可以更好地了解彼此，建立更强的关系，并实现共同的目标。
