You know, when I was watching观看
the video视频 again of the match比赛,
7
16641
3897
你知道吗,当我再次看那场比赛的视频时,
00:32
you must必须 have felt
like the fate命运 of the world's世界 women妇女
8
20562
4489
感觉好像全世界妇女的命运
00:37

2598
都与你的每一次挥拍联系在了一起。
00:40
Were you feeling感觉 that?
10
28446
1517
你是这么想的吗?
00:42
BJKBJK: First of all, Bobby鲍比 Riggs里格斯 --
he was the former前任的 number one player播放机,
11
30835
3319
BJK:首先,博比·里格斯,
他是前世界排名第一的选手,
他是有实力的,不靠投机取巧。
00:46
he wasn't just some hacker黑客, by the way.
12
34178
2002
他是我的偶像之一,我很欣赏他。
00:48
He was one of my heroes英雄 and I admired尊敬的 him.
13
36204
2882
00:51
And that's the reason原因 I beat击败 him,
actually其实, because I respected尊敬 him.
14
39848
3488
所以我才要击败他,因为我很尊重他。
(笑声)
00:55
(Laughter笑声)
15
43360
1099
真的,我父母,尤其是我父亲经常说:
00:56
It's true真正 -- my mom妈妈
and especially特别 my dad always said:
16
44483
2596
“尊重你的对手,永远不要低估他们。”
00:59
"Respect尊重 your opponent对手,
and never underestimate低估 them, ever."
17
47103
2878
01:02
And he was correct正确.
He was absolutely绝对 correct正确.
18
50005
2288
他说的很对,非常对。
01:05
But I knew知道 it was about social社会 change更改.
19
53245
2037
但我也知道这(场比赛)
关系到一场社会变革。
01:08
And I was really nervous紧张
whenever每当 we announced公布 it,
20
56962
3362
当时每次一提到这个我都会非常紧张,
01:12
and I felt like the whole整个 world世界
was on my shoulders肩膀.
21
60348
2869
而且我觉得负担很重,压力很大。
01:15
And I thought, "If I lose失去, it's going
to put women妇女 back 50 years年份, at least最小."
22
63241
5661
当时我想,“如果我输了,
妇女的地位会至少后退50年。”
01:20
Title标题 IXIX had just been passed通过
the year before -- June六月 23, 1972.
23
68926
3897
当时,(教育法修正案)第九条
刚刚在1972年6月23日通过。
01:25
And women's女士的 professional专业的 tennis网球 --
24
73892
2574
而女子职业网球——
01:28
there were nine of us who signed
a one-dollar一美元 contract合同 in 1970 --
25
76490
3273
当时我们有9名女子运动员
在1970年签了合同,价值1美元——
01:31
now remember记得, the match比赛 is in '73.
26
79787
2099
请记住,那场比赛是在73年举行的。
01:34
So we were only in our
third第三 year of having a tour游览
27
82454
3160
所以女子职业巡回赛开始才三年,
01:37
where we could actually其实 play,
have a place地点 to compete竞争 and make a living活的.
28
85638
4260
我们刚刚能打上比赛,
能靠比赛来养活自己。
01:41
So there were nine of us that signed
that one-dollar一美元 contract合同.
29
89922
2996
所以我们9个签了1美元的合同。
01:44
And our dream梦想 was for any girl女孩,
born天生 any place地点 in the world世界 --
30
92942
4969
我们的梦想是,让每一个姑娘,
无论她出生在哪里,
01:49
if she was good enough足够 --
31
97935
1558
只要她足够优秀,
01:51
there would be a place地点 for her to compete竞争
and for us to make a living活的.
32
99517
4111
就能找到自己的舞台,就能养活自己。
01:55
Because before 1968,
we made制作 14 dollars美元 a day,
33
103652
3760
因为在1968年之前,
我们每天只能挣到14美元,
01:59
and we were under the control控制
of organizations组织.
34
107436
2452
还被组织管得死死的。
02:01
So we really wanted
to break打破 away from that.
35
109912
2193
所以我们真的想摆脱这种局面。
02:04
But we knew知道 it wasn't really
about our generation so much;
36
112129
2716
其实这不光是为了我们这代人,
02:06
we knew知道 it was about
the future未来 generations.
37
114869
2050
更多的是为了我们的后代。
02:08
We do stand on the shoulders肩膀 of the people
that came来了 before us, there is no question.
38
116943
4005
我们都是站在前人的肩膀上,毫无疑问。
02:12
But every一切 generation
has the chance机会 to make it better.
39
120972
2533
但是每一代人都有机会进步。
02:16
That was really on my mind心神.
40
124265
2417
我当时有一个想法。
02:18
I really wanted to start开始 matching匹配
the hearts心中 and minds头脑 to Title标题 IXIX.
41
126706
3619
我想借(教育法修正案)第九条通过的契机,
真正推动男女平等。
02:22
Title标题 IXIX, in case案件 anybody任何人 doesn't know,
which哪一个 a lot of people probably大概 don't,
42
130349
3787
很多人也许不了解这条法案,
我来解释一下,
02:26
said that any federal联邦 funds资金 given特定
to a high school学校, college学院 or university大学,
43
134160
4278
法案规定:拨给高中、学院、大学
的联邦(教育)经费,
02:30
either public上市 or private私人的,
44
138462
2074
无论学校是公立的还是私立的,
02:32
had to -- finally最后 --
give equal等于 monies款项 to boys男孩 and girls女孩.
45
140560
4902
必须——早就该这样了——
公平分配给男生和女生。
02:37
And that changed everything.
46
145909
1491
这条法案改变了一切。
02:39
(Applause掌声)
47
147424
2826
(掌声)
02:42
So you can have a law,
48
150274
1758
法律的制定是一回事,
02:44
but it's changing改变 the hearts心中 and minds头脑
to match比赛 up with it.
49
152056
2915
但要真正实现男女平等就是另一回事了。
02:46
That's when it really rocks岩石, totally完全.
50
154995
2547
当时引起的反响还是非常大的。
02:49
So that was on my mind心神.
51
157566
1151
于是我就有了这个想法。
02:50
I wanted to start开始 that change更改
in the hearts心中 and minds头脑.
52
158741
3589
我要开始推动实现真正的男女平等。
02:54
But two things came来了 out of that match比赛.
53
162354
2792
那场比赛引出了两件事。
02:57
For women妇女: self-confidence自信心, empowerment权力.
54
165170
3156
对女人而言:自信和自强。
03:00
They actually其实 had enough足够 nerve神经
to ask for a raise提高.
55
168350
2542
她们终于有勇气要求平等。
03:03
Some women妇女 have waited等待
10, 15 years年份 to ask.
56
171675
3841
一些女人光为了提出这个要求,
就等了10年、15年。
03:07
I said, "More importantly重要的,
did you get it?"
57
175838
2001
我说,“更重要的是,提出以后,
你得到平等了吗?”
03:09
(Laughter笑声)
58
177863
1068
(笑声)
她们确实得到了!
03:10
And they did!
59
178955
1174
03:12
And for the men男人?
60
180153
1794
那对男人而言呢?
03:13
A lot of the men男人 today今天 don't realize实现 it,
61
181971
2831
可能现在的许多男人意识不到,
03:16
but if you're in your 50s, 60s
or whatever随你, late晚了 40s,
62
184826
5405
但是如果你生活在五、六十年代,
或者是四十年代末,
03:22
you're the first generation of men男人
of the Women's女士的 Movement运动 --
63
190255
3576
那你就是经历了妇女运动的第一代男人,
03:25
whether是否 you like it or not!
64
193855
1292
甭管你喜不喜欢!
03:27
(Laughter笑声)
65
195171
3022
(笑声)
03:30
(Applause掌声)
66
198217
1283
(掌声)
03:31
And for the men男人,
67
199524
1151
对男人而言,
03:32
what happened发生 for the men男人,
they'd他们会 come up to me --
68
200699
2615
发生了什么呢,他们会来找我,
03:35
and most times, the men男人 are the ones那些
who have tears眼泪 in their eyes眼睛,
69
203338
3101
而且大部分时间,他们的眼里会满含泪水,
03:38
it's very interesting有趣.
70
206463
1151
很有趣不是吗。
03:39
They go, "Billie比莉, I was very young年轻
when I saw that match比赛,
71
207638
4013
他们说,“比利,我看那场比赛
的时候还很年轻,
03:43
and now I have a daughter女儿.
72
211675
1354
而我现在已经有一个女儿了。
03:47
And I am so happy快乐 I saw that
as a young年轻 man."
73
215193
2797
我很高兴我在年轻的时候看了那场比赛。”
03:50
And one of those young年轻 men男人,
at 12 years年份 old, was President主席 Obama奥巴马.
74
218588
3549
而在这些年轻的小伙子们中,
就有当年12岁的奥巴马总统。
03:54
And he actually其实 told me that
when I met会见 him, he said:
75
222934
2720
这是他自己跟我说的,他说:
03:57
"You don't realize实现 it,
but I saw that match比赛 at 12.
76
225678
2958
“你可能不知道,
我看那场比赛的时候才12岁。
04:00
And now I have two daughters女儿,
77
228660
1853
而我现在已经有两个女儿了,
04:02
and it has made制作 a difference区别
in how I raise提高 them."
78
230537
2426
那场比赛改变了我培养他们的方法。”
04:04
So both men男人 and women妇女 got a lot
out of it, but different不同 things.
79
232987
4717
所以说男性女性都从中收获了不少,
虽然各不相同。
04:10
PM下午: And now there are generations --
at least最小 one or two --
80
238276
3155
PM:现在至少有一到两代人,
04:13
who have experienced有经验的 the equality平等
81
241455
2700
经历了男女平等的时代,
04:16
that Title标题 IXIX and other fights打架
along沿 the way made制作 possible可能.
82
244179
4886
这些都是(教育法修正案)第九条
和其他妇女运动带来的。
04:21
And for women妇女, there are generations
who have also experienced有经验的 teamwork团队合作.
83
249089
4591
几代女性(运动员)还有了
参加集体项目的经历。
04:25
They got to play team球队 sports体育
in a way they hadn't有没有 before.
84
253704
4050
这在以前是没有过的。
04:30
So you had a legacy遗产 already已经 built内置
in terms条款 of being存在 an athlete运动员,
85
258146
5081
你作为运动员为我们留下了宝贵的财富,
04:35
a legacy遗产 of the work you did
to lobby前厅 for equal等于 pay工资 for women妇女 athletes运动员
86
263251
5255
为女性运动员争取平等的报酬,
04:40
and the Women's女士的 Sports体育 Foundation基础.
87
268530
2274
以及设立“女子运动基金”。
04:43
What now are you looking to accomplish完成
88
271368
2702
现在你又成立了“比利·简·金领导计划”组织,
04:46
with The Billie比莉 Jean吉恩 King国王
Leadership领导 Initiative倡议?
89
274094
2956
你想通过它达到什么目标?
BJK:我想这件事能追溯到我12岁那年。
04:49
BJKBJK: I think it goes back
to an epiphany顿悟 I had at 12.
90
277360
2848
04:52
At 11, I wanted to be the number one
tennis网球 player播放机 in the world世界,
91
280232
3001
11岁的时候我就想成为
世界第一的网球运动员,
04:55
and a friend朋友 had asked me to play
and I said, "What's that?"
92
283257
3311
之前一个朋友叫我一起去打网球
我还问,“网球是什么?”
04:59
Tennis网球 was not in my family家庭 --
basketball篮球 was, other sports体育.
93
287098
3475
我们家没人打网球,我们打篮球,
还有别的运动。
05:02
Fast快速 forward前锋 to 12 years年份 old,
94
290597
1868
好吧,我们快进到12岁,
05:04
(Laughter笑声)
95
292489
1597
(笑声)
05:06
and I'm finally最后 starting开始
to play in tournaments比赛
96
294110
2214
我终于开始打锦标赛了,
05:08
where you get a ranking排行
at the end结束 of the year.
97
296348
2451
在年底的时候有一个排名。
05:11
So I was daydreaming白日梦
at the Los洛杉矶 Angeles洛杉矶 Tennis网球 Club俱乐部,
98
299432
3369
我当时就梦想自己加入洛杉矶网球俱乐部,
05:14
and I started开始 thinking思维 about my sport运动
and how tiny it was,
99
302825
4764
开始思考网球运动,当时网球还很小众,
05:19
but also that everybody每个人 who played发挥
wore穿着 white白色 shoes, white白色 clothes衣服,
100
307613
3649
而且每一个打网球的人都穿白球鞋,白球衣
05:23
played发挥 with white白色 balls --
everybody每个人 who played发挥 was white白色.
101
311286
2894
打的球也是白色的,
连打球的人都是白人。
05:26
And I said to myself, at 12 years年份 old,
"Where is everyone大家 else其他?"
102
314880
4962
然后我就觉得很奇怪,当时我12岁,
“其他人怎么不来打球?”
05:34
And that just kept不停 sticking症结 in my brain.
103
322222
3151
这个疑问一直在我脑海中挥之不去。
05:37
And that moment时刻,
104
325397
1151
从那时起,
05:38
I promised许诺 myself I'd fight斗争
for equal等于 rights权利 and opportunities机会
105
326572
2954
我就发誓要用我的余生
为男孩和女孩,为男人和女人
05:41
for boys男孩 and girls女孩, men男人 and women妇女,
the rest休息 of my life.
106
329550
2748
争取平等的权利和机会。o
05:44
And that tennis网球, if I was fortunate幸运
enough足够 to become成为 number one --
107
332779
4212
而网球——如果我足够幸运
能成为世界第一的话,
05:49
and I knew知道, being存在 a girl女孩,
it would be harder更难 to have influence影响,
108
337015
3491
当然我明白,作为一个女孩,
要达到那个高度很难,
05:52
already已经 at that age年龄 --
109
340530
1977
毕竟我网球启蒙得晚——
05:54
that I had this platform平台.
110
342531
2046
网球可以作为我的平台。
05:58
And tennis网球 is global全球.
111
346301
1668
网球运动是全球性的。
06:01
And I thought, "You know what?
112
349451
1741
我想,“你们看,
06:04
I've been given特定 an opportunity机会
that very few少数 people have had."
113
352163
2928
我拥有了一个非常难得的机会。”
06:07
I didn't know if I was going
to make it -- this was only 12.
114
355115
2955
当然我不知道我最后
能不能成功——毕竟我才12岁。
我当然想成功,但是
实现起来就是另一回事了。
06:10
I sure wanted it, but making制造 it
is a whole整个 other discussion讨论.
115
358094
3128
06:13
I just remember记得 I promised许诺 myself,
and I really try to keep my word.
116
361246
4203
我对自己做出了承诺,
我就会尽全力去实现它。
06:18
That's who I truly am,
just fighting战斗 for people.
117
366174
3802
这就是我,一个为人民抗争的人。
06:22
And, unfortunately不幸, women妇女 have had less.
118
370000
4210
不幸的是,女性拥有的很少。
06:27
And we are considered考虑 less.
119
375031
2269
受到的关注也少。
06:29
And so my attentions注意事项,
where did they have to go?
120
377324
2268
所以我的注意力都集中在哪里呢?
06:31
It was just ... you have to.
121
379616
2185
就是……你必须(抗争)。
06:33
And learn学习 to stick up for yourself你自己,
hear your own拥有 voice语音.
122
381825
3231
学会相信自己,追随自己的内心。
06:37

这些话你们也许听过很多次,
06:40
and I got really lucky幸运
because I had an education教育.
124
388441
3717
而我非常幸运能够接受教育。
06:44
And I think if you can see it
you can be it, you know?
125
392182
2568
我想如果你能看到目标,
就有达成的一天,不是吗?
06:46
If you can see it, you can be it.
126
394774
2216
有志者事竟成。

07:07

2184
你开始从事更大的事业。
07:09
Because one thing we hear a lot
about is women妇女 taking服用 their voice语音,
136
417390
4024
有一件事我们经常听到,
就是女性开始掌握更多话语权,
07:13
working加工 to find their way
into leadership领导 positions位置.
137
421438
3427
努力寻求走上领导岗位的方法。
07:16
But what you're talking
about is even bigger than that.
138
424889
2832
然而你做的似乎还要更进一步。
07:19
It's inclusive包括的 leadership领导.
139
427745
2229
你关注的是全面的领导力。
07:21
And this is a generation that has grown长大的 up
thinking思维 more inclusively包括性 --
140
429998
3590
现在成长起来的这一代人思考问题更加全面。
07:25
BJKBJK: Isn't it great?
Look at the technology技术!
141
433612
2121
BJK:这难道不是很棒吗?
看看现在的科技水平!
07:27
It's amazing惊人 how it connects所连接 us all!
It's about connection连接.
142
435757
4552
它将我们都联系在了一起,多么神奇!
它彻底改变了人与人的关系。
07:32
It's simply只是 amazing惊人
what's possible可能 because of it.
143
440333
3614
因为科技的发展,一切皆有可能。
07:35
But the Billie比莉 Jean吉恩 King国王
Leadership领导 Initiative倡议
144
443971
2440
而“比利·简·金领导计划”组织
07:38
is really about the workforce劳动力 mostly大多,
and trying to change更改 it,
145
446435
3064
关注的主要还是劳动力,
并试图对它进行改变,
07:41
so people can actually其实 go to work
and be their authentic真实 selves自我.
146
449523
4345
这样一来人们都可以发挥自己所长,
展现最真实的自我。
07:45
Because most of us have two jobs工作:
147
453892
3037
因为我们大多数人都有两份工作:
07:48
One, to fit适合 in -- I'll give you
a perfect完善 example.
148
456953
2619
一是融入(圈子)——我这有个很好的例子。
07:51
An African非洲人 American美国 woman女人
gets得到 up an hour小时 earlier to go to work,
149
459596
3331
一名非裔美国女性提早一个小时起床上班,
07:54
straightens拉直 her hair头发 in the bathroom浴室,
150
462951
1801
在洗手间里把自己的头发弄直,
07:56
goes to the bathroom浴室
probably大概 four, five, six times a day
151
464776
3183
她可能一天内要去洗手间
四次、五次甚至六次,
07:59
to keep straightening校直 her hair头发,
to keep making制造 sure she fits适合 in.
152
467983
3088
确保自己的头发是直的,
确保自己能融入(工作圈子)。
08:03
So she's working加工 two jobs工作.
153
471095
1270
所以说她有两份工作。
08:04
She's got this other job工作,
whatever随你 that may可能 be,
154
472389
2385
另一份工作是什么并不重要,
08:06
but she's also trying to fit适合 in.
155
474798
2210
但融入(圈子)是必须的。
08:09
Or this poor较差的 man who kept不停 his diploma文凭 --
156
477032
4043
有一个可怜的男人,
一直保存着自己的毕业证书
08:13
he went to University大学 of Michigan密歇根州,
157
481099
1716
他上的是密歇根大学,
08:14
but he never would talk about
his poverty贫穷 as a youngster青少年, ever --
158
482839
3321
但他绝不会提起自己贫穷的少年时代,
08:18
just would not mention提到 it.
159
486184
1319
绝对守口如瓶。
08:19
So he made制作 sure they saw
he was well-educated受过良好教育.
160
487527
2249
这样他能确保别人看到的
是他受过良好的教育。
08:22
And then you see a gay同性恋者 guy
who has an NFLNFL --
161
490338
2444
还有一个男同,他在NHL(打球)——
08:24
which哪一个 means手段 American美国 football足球
for all of you out there,
162
492806
2641
也就是美式橄榄球(联盟),
可能其他国家的观众不了解,
08:27
it's a big deal合同, it's very macho大男子主义 --
163
495471
1951
很不简单,这项运动非常有男子气概——
08:29
and he talked about football足球 all the time,
164
497447
2022
他无时无刻不在谈论橄榄球,
08:31
because he was gay同性恋者
and he didn't want anybody任何人 to know.
165
499493
3580
因为他是同性恋,而他不想让人知道这一点。
08:35
It just goes on and on.
166
503097
1777
这样的事层出不穷。
08:36
So my wish希望 for everyone大家 is to be able能够
to be their authentic真实 self 24/7,
167
504898
6113
所以我希望每一个人都能做最真实的自己,
08:43
that would be the ultimate最终.
168
511035
1806
这是我的终极目标。
08:44
And we catch抓住 ourselves我们自己 -- I mean,
I catch抓住 myself to this day.
169
512865
3526
我们要接受自己,
我一直如此,直到今天。
08:48
Even being存在 gay同性恋者 I catch抓住 myself,
you know, like,
170
516415
2147
即使我是同性恋,我也要接受自己,
08:50
(Gasp喘气)
171
518586
1150
就像,呃!
08:52
a little uncomfortable不舒服,
a little surge浪涌 in my gut肠道,
172
520464
3088
尽管有点难受,就像腹中的阵痛,
08:55
feeling感觉 not totally完全
comfortable自在 in my own拥有 skin皮肤.
173
523576
3068
觉得浑身不对劲。
09:00
So, I think you have to ask yourself你自己 --
174
528655
2229
我们都应该扪心自问,
09:02
I want people to be themselves他们自己,
whatever随你 that is, just let it be.
175
530908
3147
我希望人人都可以做自己,
无论是什么样,都应该接受。
09:06
PM下午: And the first research研究
the Leadership领导 Initiative倡议 did showed显示 that,
176
534079
3712
PM:“领导计划”的首个研究结果表明,
09:09
that these examples例子 you just used --
177
537815
3236
正如你刚才举的那几个例子一样,
09:13
that many许多 of us have the problem问题
of being存在 authentic真实.
178
541075
4805
我们中有很多人不能展现真实的自我。
09:17
But what you've just looked看着 at
is this millennial千年 generation,
179
545904
4025
但您刚刚提到的千禧一代,
09:21
who have benefited受益 from all these
equal等于 opportunities机会 --
180
549953
3538
他们能享受到平等的机会,
09:25
which哪一个 may可能 not be equal等于
but exist存在 everywhere到处 --
181
553515
2161
尽管不完全平等,但至少存在,
09:27
BJKBJK: First of all, I'm really lucky幸运.
182
555700
1719
BJK:首先,我很幸运。
09:29
Partnership合伙 with TeneoTENEO,
a strategic战略 company公司 that's amazing惊人.
183
557443
4532
我们与Teneo战略咨询公司
的合作非常棒。
09:33
That's really the reason原因
I'm able能够 to do this.
184
561999
2173
没有他们就没有“领导力倡议”组织。
09:36
I've had two times in my life
185
564517
1461
我一生中有两次,
09:38
where I've actually其实 had men男人
really behind背后 me with power功率.
186
566002
2686
得到了别人强有力的支持。
09:40
And that was in the old days
with Philip菲利普 Morris莫里斯 with Virginia弗吉尼亚州 Slims细长型,
187
568712
3290
(第一次是)“维吉尼亚细长香烟”的
菲利普·莫里斯,
09:44
and this is the second第二 time
in my entire整个 life.
188
572026
2334
然后这是我一生中的第二次。
09:46
And then Deloitte德勤.
189
574384
1349
再然后就是与德勤(的合作)。
09:49
The one thing I wanted was data数据 -- facts事实.
190
577157
2785
数据和事实对我而言非常重要。
09:52
So Deloitte德勤 sent发送 out a survey调查,
191
580465
1727
于是德勤组织了一次问卷调查,
09:54
and over 4,000 people now have answered回答,
192
582216
4005
有超过4000名受访者递交了答案,
09:58
and we're continuing继续 in the workplace职场.
193
586245
1884
我们还在对结果进行分析。
10:00
And what do the millennials千禧 feel?
194
588871
2429
千禧一代的内心有哪些感受?
10:04
Well, they feel a lot, but what
they're so fantastic奇妙 about is --
195
592157
3261
当然,他们的感受很多,
但其中最了不起的是——
10:07
you know, our generation was like,
"Oh, we're going to get representation表示."
196
595442
3529
你知道,咱们这一代人就像,
“哦,我们要表达自我。”
10:10
So if you walk步行 into a room房间,
you see everybody每个人 represented代表.
197
598995
2788
如果你走进一间屋子,
你会看到每个人都在表达自我。
10:13
That's not good enough足够 anymore,
which哪一个 is so good!
198
601807
2470
这种方式已经跟不上时代了,
这是件好事!
10:16
So the millennials千禧 are fantastic奇妙;
they want connection连接, engagement订婚.
199
604301
4220
所以说千禧一代非常棒,
他们渴望联系,渴望交流。
10:20
They just want you to tell us
what you're feeling感觉, what you're thinking思维,
200
608545
3424
他们想知道你的感受,你的想法,
10:23
and get into the solution.
201
611993
1253
然后找到解决之道。
10:25
They're problem-solvers问题解决者,
202
613270
1238
他们是问题解决者,
10:26
and of course课程, you've got
the information信息 at your fingertips指尖,
203
614532
2875
而且,现在他们通过网络获取信息,
10:29
compared相比 to when I was growing生长 up.
204
617431
2702
这跟我成长的年代已经完全不同了。
10:32
PM下午: What did the research研究 show显示 you
about millennials千禧?
205
620157
2528
PM:关于千禧一代的研究
您得出了什么结论?
10:34
Are they going to make a difference区别?
206
622709
1719
他们能做出改变吗?
10:36
Are they going to create创建 a world世界 where
there is really an inclusive包括的 work force?
207
624452
4017
他们能否创造一个兼容并蓄的劳动力环境?
10:40
BJKBJK: Well, in 2025,
75 percent百分 of the global全球 workforce劳动力
208
628493
5892
BJK:到2025年,全球劳动力中的75%
10:46
is going to be millennials千禧.
209
634409
1440
将是千禧一代。
10:48
I think they are going
to help solve解决 problems问题.
210
636202
2287
我觉得他们会有助于解决一些问题。
10:50
I think they have
the wherewithal途穷 to do it.
211
638513
2096
他们有能力这样做。
10:52
I know they care关心 a lot.
212
640633
1571
我知道他们在乎很多事情。
10:54
They have big ideas思路
and they can make big things happen发生.
213
642228
4476
他们有想法,也有能力做大事。
10:59
I want to stay in the now
with the young年轻 people,
214
647049
2318
我想跟上年轻人,
11:01
I don't want to get behind背后.
215
649391
1894
不想被甩在后面。
11:04
(Laughter笑声)
216
652673
1671
(笑声)
11:06
PM下午: I don't think there's any chance机会!
217
654368
1806
PM:我觉得这个太难了!
11:09
But what you found发现 out
in the research研究 about millennials千禧
218
657604
2995
但我觉得您对千禧一代的看法,
11:12
is not really the experience经验 that a lot
of people have with millennials千禧.
219
660623
4627
跟很多人的看法不太一样。
11:17
BJKBJK: No, well, if we want to talk --
OK, I've been doing my little mini-survey小型调查.
220
665274
3764
BJK:的确,如果我们想谈——
好吧,我自己做了一个小的问卷调查。
11:21
I've been talking to the Boomers,
who are their bosses老板, and I go,
221
669062
4883
我跟许多婴儿潮时代出生的人谈过,
他们现在是千禧一代的老板,我问,
11:25
"What do you think about the millennials千禧?"
222
673969
2046
“你们是怎么看千禧一代的?”
我很兴奋,因为我以为评价会很好,
11:28
And I'm pretty漂亮 excited兴奋, like it's good,
223
676039
1876
结果他们的表情是这样的……
11:29
and they get this face面对 --
224
677939
1456
11:31
(Laughter笑声)
225
679419
2316
(笑声)
11:33
"Oh, you mean the 'Me''我' generation?"
226
681759
1682
“哦,你是说‘自我’一代吗?”
11:35
(Laughter笑声)
227
683465
1581
(笑声)
11:37
I say, "Do you really think so?
228
685070
1488
我说,“你真的这么认为吗?
11:38
Because I do think they care关心
about the environment环境
229
686582
2882
因为我真心觉得他们关心环境
11:41
and all these things."
230
689488
1295
和其他(公益)问题。”
11:43
And they go, "Oh, Billie比莉,
they cannot不能 focus焦点."
231
691442
4485
他们说,“哦,比利,
他们就是关注得太多。”
11:47
(Laughter笑声)
232
695951
2702
(笑声)
11:50
They actually其实 have proven证明
233
698677
1619
他们甚至证明了,
11:52
that the average平均 focus焦点
for an 18-year-old-岁 is 37 seconds.
234
700320
3494
(现在)18岁的人集中注意力
的时间平均只有37秒。
11:55
(Laughter笑声)
235
703838
1569
(笑声)
11:57
They can't focus焦点.
236
705431
1399
他们无法集中注意力。
11:58
And they don't really care关心.
237
706854
1409
而且他们真的毫不在乎。
12:00
I just heard听说 a story故事 the other night:
238
708287
1841
有一天晚上我听说了一个故事:
12:02
a woman女人 owns拥有 a gallery画廊
and she has these workers工人.
239
710152
2430
一位女士有一家画廊,
手底下有几个员工。
12:05
She gets得到 a text文本 from one of the workers工人,
240
713547
3165
她收到一个员工的短信,
12:08
like an intern实习生, she's
just starting开始 -- she goes,
241
716736
2648
是一个实习生,刚刚开始上班,
她写的是,
12:11
"Oh, by the way, I'm going to be late晚了
because I'm at the hairdresser's理发店."
242
719408
3383
“哦,对了,我会晚点到,
我还在店里做头发。”
12:14
(Laughter笑声)
243
722815
4912
(笑声)
12:19
So she arrives到达, and this boss老板 says,
244
727751
3812
然后她到了,老板问,
12:23
"What's going on?"
245
731587
1151
“发生什么事了吗?”
12:24
And she says, "Oh, I was late晚了,
sorry, how's如何的 it going?"
246
732762
2526
她说,“哦,我迟到了,
抱歉,有什么问题吗?”
12:27
She says, "Well, guess猜测 what?
I'd like you leave离开, you're finished."
247
735312
4100
老板说,“好吧,我想说,
你可以走了,你被解雇了。”
12:31
She goes, "OK."
248
739436
1366
她说,“行吧。”
12:32
(Laughter笑声)
249
740826
3202
(笑声)
12:36
No problem问题!
250
744052
1151
无所谓!
12:37
PM下午: Now Billie比莉, that story故事 --
251
745227
1422
PM:好吧,比利,这个故事……
12:38
I know, but that's what
scares恐慌 the boomers --
252
746673
2434
是啊,这正是婴儿潮一代所不能接受的,
12:41
I'm just telling告诉 you --
so I think it's good for us to share分享.
253
749131
2863
我想说的是,
勇于分享是一件好事。
12:44
(Laughter笑声)
254
752018
1569
(笑声)
12:45
No, it is good for us to share分享,
255
753611
1483
真的,分享是一件好事,
12:47
because we're our authentic真实 selves自我
and what we're really feeling感觉,
256
755118
3069
因为我们要做真实的自己,
分享自己真实的感受,
所以我们要辩证地来看问题。
12:50
so we've我们已经 got to take it
both ways方法, you know?
257
758211
2273
12:52
But I have great faith信仰 because --
258
760508
1947
我对此很有信心,
12:54
if you've been in sports体育 like I have --
259
762479
2893
如果你也跟我一样从事网球运动,
12:57
every一切 generation gets得到 better.
260
765396
1633
(你会发现)一代比一代强。
12:59
It's a fact事实.
261
767053
1285
这是事实。
13:00
With the Women's女士的 Sports体育 Foundation基础
being存在 the advocates倡导者 for Title标题 IXIX still,
262
768362
4009
“女子运动基金”仍然在支持
(教育法修正案)第九条,
13:04
because we're trying
to keep protecting保护 the law,
263
772395
2253
我们在努力保护这一法律,
因为它的地位很不稳固,
13:06
because it's in a tenuous纤细 position位置 always,
264
774672
3145
13:09
so we really are concerned关心,
265
777841
1880
这让我们很担心,
13:11
and we do a lot of research研究.
266
779745
1691
我们做了大量研究工作。
13:13
That's very important重要 to us.
267
781460
1674
