1. To what extent do you think societies benefit from the contact and closer relationship with foreigners brought about by international business and tourism?
The ever-developing air travel and telecommunication technology in the 20th century created enormous momentum for contacts across the globe. Now, even the remote island of Tahiti in the south Pacific is expected to welcome thousands of holidaymakers in its busiest season and the local residents can make a fortune from it. This is symbolic of the internationally fast growing tourism and business resulting from the increased global communication. This development produces some positive effects, in the sense that people van make contact with those from varying cultures and be more informed about the world, and that for underdeveloped societies, their residents will have the opportunity to learn sophisticated business experience, with the many managers sent to these areas by multinational companies.
But societies will not necessarily benefit from this change, due to the risk of losing integrity. In comparisons with their looks decades ago when they were still untouched, many places have become less distinctive. To cater to foreign travelers, those places had to take on a commercially appealing appearance, with the result that their original features are largely or even totally missing.
2. The leaders or directors of organizations are often older people. But some people say that young people can also be a leader. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
It is true that many leaders and senior executives in global companies are elderly people. However, I would argue that those superb young people are also eligible to take important positions in today’s world.
On the one hand, compared to the young generation, elderly people possess more edges. First and foremost, they have better cognitive skills, such as big-picture thinking and long-term vision. This is because years of work experience and failures teach them to take every aspect into consideration before making important decisions. By contrast, due to a lack of social experience, young leaders seem to make shortsighted decisions sometimes. Moreover, since the old have already overcome countless difficulties and challenges prior, they can quickly adjust their mood in turmoil and lift them or ale of the whole organization.
On the other hand, there are two reasons why younger directors are also competent to be leaders in important positions. In the first place, with well-educated backgrounds, young leaders are more likely to have a deep understanding of cultural difference, and they can empathize with other employees and clients much better. Today, empathy plays a key role in retention of talents. For example, it is easy to misunderstand others in a cross-cultural dialogue. When good employees resign, they might take the company’s knowledge with them, which is a brain drain for the company. Secondly, compared with the senior leaders, young directors can apply the latest technology and theory into practice, and this can counteract negative stereotype of management and greatly improve the productivity.
In conclusion, in my opinion, age should not be the criterion when selecting the leader of a company. Anyone who has the leadership can play his or her role in the organization.
