So, ladies女士們 and gentlemen紳士, at TEDTED

2000
各位先生女士們,在TED大會中
00:17
we talk a lot about leadership領導 and how to make a movement運動.
1
2000
3000
我們談了許多關於領導力,和如何發起群眾運動的議題
00:20
So let's watch a movement運動 happen發生, start開始 to finish, in under three minutes分鐘
2
5000
3000
那麼讓我們來看一場群眾運動的誕生,從開始到結束,還不到三分鐘
00:23
and dissect解剖 some lessons教訓 from it.
3
8000
3000
並從當中學到一些經驗
00:26
First, of course課程 you know, a leader領導 needs需求 the guts膽量
4
11000
2000
當然,首先,做為一個領導者需要膽識
00:28
to stand out and be ridiculed.
5
13000
3000
他要站出來並接受嘲笑
00:32
But what he's doing is so easy簡單 to follow跟隨.
6
17000
2000
不過他所做的很容易跟著做
00:34
So here's這裡的 his first follower信徒 with a crucial關鍵 role角色;
7
19000
3000
這裡出現第一個關鍵的跟隨者角色
00:37
he's going to show顯示 everyone大家 else其他 how to follow跟隨.
8
22000
2000
他要讓大家看到如何跟上
00:39
Now, notice注意 that the leader領導 embraces擁抱 him as an equal等於.
9
24000
2000
現在,你觀察到這位領導者以平等的態度接納他
00:41
So, now it's not about the leader領導 anymore;
10
26000
2000
所以,現在領導者是誰已不重要
00:43
it's about them, plural複數.
11
28000
2000
而是屬於"他們"的活動
00:45
Now, there he is calling調用 to his friends朋友.
12
30000
2000
接著,他號召他的朋友來參與
00:47
Now, if you notice注意 that the first follower信徒
13
32000
2000
現在如果你注意到第一個跟隨者
00:49
is actually其實 an underestimated低估 form形成 of leadership領導 in itself本身.
14
34000
4000
其實他本身就是一個被低估的領導者角色
00:53
It takes guts膽量 to stand out like that.
15
38000
2000
光是跟著站出來也需要膽識
00:55
The first follower信徒 is what transforms變換
16
40000
3000
第一個跟隨者
00:58
a lone孤單 nut堅果 into a leader領導.
17
43000
2000
把一個瘋子變成了領袖
01:00
(Laughter笑聲)
18
45000
2000
(笑聲)
01:02
(Applause掌聲)
19
47000
3000
(掌聲)
01:05
And here comes a second第二 follower信徒.
20
50000
2000
接著第二個跟隨者出現
01:07
Now it's not a lone孤單 nut堅果, it's not two nuts堅果 --
21
52000
2000
現在不是一個瘋子,也不是兩個瘋子
01:09
three is a crowd人群, and a crowd人群 is news新聞.
22
54000
3000
三人成為群體,而群體就是個話題
01:12
So a movement運動 must必須 be public上市.
23
57000
2000
因此群眾運動必須是公眾的
01:14
It's important重要 to show顯示 not just to show顯示 the leader領導, but the followers追隨者,
24
59000
3000
重點是,不能只聚焦領導者,跟隨者也很重要
01:17
because you find that new followers追隨者
25
62000
2000
因為你會發現這些新的跟隨者
01:19
emulate仿真 the followers追隨者, not the leader領導.
26
64000
3000
是模仿追隨者,而不是領導者
01:22
Now, here come two more people, and immediately立即 after,
27
67000
2000
現在又來了兩個人,之後很快
01:24
three more people.
28
69000
2000
又多了三個人
01:26
Now we've我們已經 got momentum動量. This is the tipping小費 point.
29
71000
2000
這下子可熱鬧了,這是個引爆點
01:28
Now we've我們已經 got a movement運動.
30
73000
3000
群眾運動誕生了
01:32
So, notice注意 that, as more people join加入 in,
31
77000
2000
所以請注意,隨著越多人加入
01:34
it's less risky有風險.
32
79000
2000
風險就越低
01:36
So those that were sitting坐在 on the fence籬笆 before, now have no reason原因 not to.
33
81000
3000
那些之前在旁袖手旁觀的人群沒理由不跟上了
01:39
They won't慣於 stand out,
34
84000
2000
他們不站出來
01:41
they won't慣於 be ridiculed,
35
86000
2000
也不會被嘲笑
01:43
but they will be part部分 of the in-crowd在人群中 if they hurry匆忙.
36
88000
2000
但若快點行動,他們可以成為群體中的一份子
01:45
(Laughter笑聲)
37
90000
3000
(笑聲)
01:48
So, over the next下一個 minute分鐘,
38
93000
2000
所以接下來的一分鐘
01:50
you'll你會 see all of those that prefer比較喜歡 to stick with the crowd人群
39
95000
2000
你會發現這些人寧願跟著群體走
01:52
because eventually終於 they would be ridiculed
40
97000
2000
因為最後會被嘲笑的
01:54
for not joining加盟 in.
41
99000
2000
是沒加入的人
01:56
And that's how you make a movement運動.
42
101000
2000
這就是群眾運動的形成
01:58
But let's recap概括 some lessons教訓 from this.
43
103000
2000
不過,再重點複習一次
02:00
So first, if you are the type類型,
44
105000
3000
第一,如果你的類型
02:03
like the shirtless赤膊上陣 dancing跳舞 guy that is standing常設 alone單獨,
45
108000
3000
是像那個打赤膊的跳舞男
02:06
remember記得 the importance重要性 of nurturing培育
46
111000
2000
記得重視你的跟隨者
02:08
your first few少數 followers追隨者 as equals等於
47
113000
2000
並一視同仁
02:10
so it's clearly明確地 about the movement運動, not you.
48
115000
3000
群眾運動不是領導者唱獨角戲
02:13
Okay, but we might威力 have missed錯過 the real真實 lesson here.
49
118000
3000
好吧,不過我們可能錯過了真正要學的
02:16
The biggest最大 lesson, if you noticed注意到 --
50
121000
2000
最大的功課是,如果你有注意到
02:18
did you catch抓住 it? -- is that leadership領導
51
123000
2000
你會發現,領導者的地位
02:20
is over-glorified過榮耀.
52
125000
2000
被過度美化了
02:22
That, yes, it was the shirtless赤膊上陣 guy who was first,
53
127000
2000
沒錯,打赤膊的男子率先行動
02:24
and he'll地獄 get all the credit信用,
54
129000
2000
目光都在他身上
02:26
but it was really the first follower信徒
55
131000
2000
但其實是第一個跟隨者
02:28
that transformed改造 the lone孤單 nut堅果 into a leader領導.
56
133000
3000
把一個瘋子變成領袖
02:31
So, as we're told that we should all be leaders領導者,
57
136000
2000
因此雖然我們都被教導要成為領袖
02:33
that would be really ineffective不靈.
58
138000
2000
實際上這樣是行不通的
02:35
If you really care關心 about starting開始 a movement運動,
59
140000
2000
若你認真要喚起一個群眾運動
02:37
have the courage勇氣 to follow跟隨
60
142000
2000
拿出勇氣跟上領導者
02:39
and show顯示 others其他 how to follow跟隨.
61
144000
2000
並向他人展現如何跟隨
02:41
And when you find a lone孤單 nut堅果 doing something great,
62
146000
2000
當你發現一個瘋子在做很棒的事
02:43
have the guts膽量 to be the first one
63
148000
2000
拿出膽識,第一個跟上
02:45
to stand up and join加入 in.
64
150000
2000
站出來加入他
02:47
And what a perfect完善 place地點 to do that, at TEDTED.
65
152000
2000
要這麼做,參與TED大會就是最好的示範
02:49
Thanks謝謝.
66
154000
2000
謝謝
02:51
(Applause掌聲)
