I don't believe in spending too much time finding and analysing every possible solution to a problem. Success depends on one thing and one thing alone: getting things done as soon as possible. Once you've decided what to do, take immediate action and work out the details later - that's my rule. If I waited until I had all the information available, I wouldn't get anywhere.
我不赞成花很长时间寻找和分析每个可能解决问题的方法。成功只取决于一件事:尽快把事情办好。只要你决定了要做的事,就赶紧行动起来,之后再研究细节——这是我的原则。如果我等到自己掌握了全部能获取的信息才去做,那我就会一无所获。

Don't forget that organisations are made up of individuals with their own interests. And they often use information and plans to further their own aims. Politics and differences in opinion are common in large firms. So as I see it, a manager's main role is to solve problems and differences between team members in a way that everyone can accept.
不要忘记,组织都是由许多个人组成的,他们都为了自己的利益。而且他们经常利用信息和计划来达到自己更高的目的。政治和意见分歧在大公司是十分常见的。因此,我个人认为,一个经理的主要角色是:以每个人都能接受的方式来解决团队成员之间的问题以及处理他们之间的分歧。
