Leaders must be partners with other people in the modern world since they no longer can lead solely based on positional power. Today's visionary leadership relates to generating confidence, so the rule by king or official leader that was authority itself is outdated and ineffective, failing to make people feel being part of the game. As long as decision making is concerned, effective leadership not only inspires others to have confidence in the leader but also inspires them to have confidence in themselves.

To gain people's confidence, a real leader is a visionary who is content to point the way so that others can follow toward the horizon. Usually people tend to deposit their trust in good communication and good judgment--two essential qualities of a leader. Such confidence is a feeling more about influence than about authority, considering that nowadays the positional power alone might not bring about that kind of confidence which catches up with the modern time. From this point of view, it may be assumed that an influential person who has people's confidence does not have to hold a position to become a leader. Therefore, only under such a leader can people feel like participating in the decision making, and learn more, work more, achieve more and dream more. In short, people follow the leader's vision of a better future.

If an effective leader has the vision that a dream can be achieved, others become filled with the power and energy to get it done. This shows how important it is for a leader to connect with others and make them feel that they are part of the team. Without that connection, the leader's ability to lead would soon be lost. The 'we-feeling' connection draws from something magnetic as excellent leaders have a way of communication that inspires self-confidence in others. That is to say, people's confidence in the visionary leader's judgment breeds confidence in themselves as well. Trusting that their voices are being heard and opinions are valued, they feel as if they were partners of the leadership.

On the whole, all visionary leaders can inspire others' confidence in the effective leadership in decision making as well as inspire others to have self-confidence in getting the job done. Through the art of communication, successful leaders understand people's aspirations and make the leadership judgments understood by people. In the modern world, decisions seem to be made by leaders, but leaders should not stand alone. (Essay created by Jeenn Lee Hsieh, ielts360toefl@hotmail.com )


》网友：麻烦老师解释写作的4P（四个步奏）？

猫头鹰：审题-计划-生产-校对。

1. 审题 Prompt: You may want to read the topic and task more than once to be sure what you are asked to write about.

2. 计划 Plan: Think logically before you write. You may need a mind-map, or a mental outline.

3. 生产 Produce: Write academically at the rhetorical, syntactic and lexical levels.

4. 校对 Proofread: Check grammar, vocabulary and punctuations.

》网友：Writing Topic和Writing Task 有区别吗？

猫头鹰：题目Topic和任务Task可以看做同一回事，搞不懂也不会闹笑话。雅思托福写作有Task 1和Task 2，其任务不同，比方说Task 1是引导写作。在Task 2 是独立大作文，Topic=Prompt=真题=百种千样的话题。Task 2=答题的任务几乎千篇一律（比方说要求针对问题提出立场说同意不同意，作为回答，又要求提出论证来支持答题的立场。）

》网友：论说文须要论证，毛病出于一时想不出句子来写论证的理由例子细节，老师有没有特效药?

猫头鹰：论证的文思难得泉涌而来。有时想出几个好点子，可是造句又不来电，几乎词不达意。看来长久之计应该是自习造句+论证，不断充电。当务之急只好加强阅读多人多篇多样高分范文，见好样就学好样，全面模仿。专注笔记背诵老手的句子，大胆抄袭高手的精彩论证。将完整的句子记住，包挂标点符号，到时候用得上。也许特别出色的范文就是特效药。要不然则报培训班，既有名师或有名药。

》网友：如何评估范文品质的高低, 考前至少要浏览几篇高分范文才能潜移默化？

猫头鹰：高分范文的亮点：作文的逻辑--主题有焦点，结构有组织，内容有支持。英文的应用——语言有效率，句型有变化，词汇有恰当。考前至少选读100篇不同话题不同作者的高分范文，好处多多。
