Halla Tómasdóttir: 我认为与其与冒名顶替综合征作斗争,不如与它成为朋友,把它当成一个会提出尖锐问题的室友或朋友。它能帮助我们避免自负,并促使我们不断学习和进步。在面对重大挑战时,我学会了从理性分析转向内心的感受和价值观,这帮助我克服了恐惧和不确定性。在2016年和2024年的总统竞选中,我选择采取积极的竞选策略,以希望和灵感为基础,而不是恐惧和愤怒。我相信真诚和同理心是领导力的关键,而倾听和提问是建立信任和促进合作的有效方式。我致力于弥合性别差距、代际差距和全球差距,并通过合作和倾听来找到解决方案。我减少了演讲次数,增加了对话机会,并通过与不同群体进行小型、互动式的对话来促进交流和共同创造。冰岛的经验表明,即使是小国,也能通过创新和合作来解决全球性问题,并成为其他国家的榜样。我们需要重新思考领导力,将其视为每个人都应具备的能力,而不是少数人的特权。我们需要关注男孩和男人的心理健康和社会融入问题,这对于实现真正的性别平等至关重要。 Adam Grant: 成功的领导者不仅是优秀的演讲者,更是优秀的倾听者,通过倾听,可以更好地理解他人,获得更好的建议,并提高团队效率。与其专注于寻找和解决问题,不如关注现有优势,并以此为基础构建更好的未来。给予人们希望和灵感的同时,也需要赋予他们参与建设和共同创造的机会。

Shownotes Transcript

When Halla Tómasdóttir lost her bid for the Icelandic presidency in 2016, she wasn't sure she wanted to run again. But after battles with self-doubt, encouragement from her supporters and an epiphany about leadership, she ran again this year — and this time, she won. Halla joins Adam to discuss dealing with impostor syndrome, why leadership is worth the effort and how listening and asking questions can build trust with constituents and make you a stronger leader. The two also dig into the story behind Halla's "scarf revolution," Iceland's history of solving problems with creativity and Halla’s approach to leading her campaign — and presidency — with optimism.
