【The Shift】如何教育培养孩子面对未来的挑战(中)

posted in: 读书笔记 | 0

上一篇文章提到了未来20年将遇到的挑战,接下来讲如何准备面对这些挑战。

书中提到了三个概念,对准备迎接未来的变化非常重要。

 

第一,智慧资本  Intellectual Capital

这个就是你的知识和思考能力。

书中提出,重要的是在某一个领域深耕细作,成为大师。不要做Generalists,而是Mastery, 并且是Serial Master,在越多的领域有深入的见解,并能融汇贯通。

That is a combination of what you know and your capacity to think deeply and intelligently about issues and challenges.

第二,社会资本 Social capital

其次 就是社会资本,简单地讲就是人脉,人脉的广度和深度。人脉会变得更加重要,而人脉的形成和培养是要有意识地努力。

人脉的质量也很重要,Diversity是必须的,人脉的广度能帮破除很多成见,帮助你看到什么才能让你成为真正的人生赢家。

你同时要能在人群中脱颖而出,同时又要聪明地成为人群的一分子,做一个有创造力的connector。 否则,你就是被孤立的,鼓励的你和其他被联系的人竞争是没有胜算的。

That is the sum of all the relationships you have and the extent and depth of your networks.

Some of these relationships will be strong and real sources of personal joy, while many others will be weaker and enable you to connect to diverse groups of people.

The depth and breadth of these relatioships and networks will become ever more vital, and that they will need to be crafted and nurtured in consicious ways.

Success will come from the balance between the different types of relationships and networks that define your work. This will mean letting go of many of your preconceptions about what it takes to be a winner.

It is a shift from being an isolated competitor ot being an innovative connector.

 

第三,情感资本 Emotion Capital

这是指你有多了解自己和如何反省自己做出的选择。同时也是指你的意志是否坚定到足以做出有勇气的行动。

有勇气去挑战,去突破自我,去克服自己的弱点。

现在,在很多大公司,特别是日本的大公司,员工的很多重大决定,是被 公司做的。比如日本大公司的定期轮岗制度,员工自己无法完全决定自己在那个部门,哪个城市工作。

用书中的话说就是 You could leave it in the hands of the corporation to make the big decisions about your working life.

关于情感资本,书中提出重要的是你要明白自己的选择 ,并且准备接受每一个选择带来的牺牲。

比如,你可能会为了有更多的自由时间而不去选择薪水高但工作时间长的职业。

特别是,将来我们会变得更加重视经验的质量而不是消费的数量。我们的孩子一代,价值观会更加趋向宁愿周末在公园和家人赏花也不愿意为了买个包去公司加班挣加班费。

Quality of experienc will trump quantity of consumption.

总结一下,未来面对未来挑战我们需要准备的三点

1) 要成为某个领域的专家

2) 要成为一个可以连接一群有着多样性和智慧有趣的群体的中心

3) 要从一个虚荣贪婪的消费者转变成一个更重视内心的追求和重视经验质量本身的人

 

  1. Be prepare to expend the focus and determination to be a serial master
  2. Use energy and goodwill to become an innovative connector with a rich network of diverse and interesting people
  3. Redraft the traditional working deal that has money and consumption at the heart to something more in tune with your eomotional needs for experiences and passion
