Today’s advice comes from Richard Grefé, executive director at AIGA:
今天的MBA小課堂的嘉賓是美國(guó)平面設(shè)計(jì)師協(xié)會(huì)的執(zhí)行理事Richard Grefé:

"Today, the power resides in those who have a sense of the way that knowledge flows. And that becomes critical because knowledge is growing at an exponential rate."
“當(dāng)今世界,真正的力量來(lái)源于那些知道如何獲取知識(shí)的人。這一點(diǎn)很重要,因?yàn)楝F(xiàn)在的知識(shí)是以指數(shù)級(jí)的速度在增加的。”

Grefé believes that, in a world where knowledge is at the fingertips of anyone who has access to the Internet, people are forgetting a huge source of knowledge: other people.
Grefé認(rèn)為,現(xiàn)在人們只要?jiǎng)觿?dòng)手指就可以從網(wǎng)上獲得各種知識(shí),以至于大家都忘記了另一個(gè)獲取大量知識(shí)的途徑,那就是:人。

Beyond asking others for advice on company matters, conversation is a major source of acquiring ideas. Through loose conversation on any business-related matter, you'll find yourself coming up with ideas and finding inspiration. Before you hire someone to help your business, attempt to find solutions through word-of-mouth exchanges.
除了可以向他人請(qǐng)教有關(guān)公司事務(wù)的各種意見(jiàn)外,交談也是一種獲得靈感的主要途徑。通過(guò)那些和商業(yè)搭一點(diǎn)邊的各種交流談話,你會(huì)從中獲得很多點(diǎn)子、找到很多靈感。在雇傭?qū)H肆侠砉臼聞?wù)之前,可以先試著從這種對(duì)話中交流信息,找到解決之道。

"For any individual to succeed, it has got to go beyond just knowing things. They have to be curious, they have to be thoughtful. And that doesn't come from social media and that doesn't come form deep-diving in data. That comes from thoughtful conversations."
“對(duì)于任何想要獲得成功的人而言,不僅要掌握知識(shí),更要充滿好奇心,考慮周到。而后者不是來(lái)源于社交媒體,也不是來(lái)源于對(duì)數(shù)據(jù)的深入分析,而是來(lái)自深入詳細(xì)的對(duì)話交流?!?/div>
