  Most significant leadership experience

  During the last three years I have devoted a significant amount of time and energy to the betterment of young entrepreneurs, who in this country are mistreated, stripped of opportunities, and looked down upon. In my quest to start my own business, I faced many obstacles that I later found to plague all entrepreneurs in my country. Established family heads discourage their younger members from starting separate businesses; they would rather their younger members join them in the so called "safe business." Moreover, companies and government organizations will not award contracts to young people since older people earn respect for their age rather than their ideas in this traditional sub-continental culture. With an uncooperative family and no sources of funding, young entrepreneurs face little chance of success.

  In these difficult conditions, I realized there were many young people who were full of potential but lacked support. By meeting with these people, I motivated them to believe that together we could help improve collective situation. In October 1996,the seventeen of us founded the "Young Entrepreneurs Society" (YES). I served as the coordinator for the first two years. We figured that in order to get our message heard, we needed to prove ourselves a significant lot. We started with social activities like helping poor students with registration fees for matriculation exams and organizing blood donation activities, etc.

  We held our first seminar on the "Prospect of Software Development Business inBangladeshand the Government&aposs Role, " and five months later we had our second seminar on the "Obstacles for Young Entrepreneurs inBangladesh&apos with the finance minister as the chi guest. Following our seminar, the central bank extended loan facilities of up to Tk. 5 lac (US$ 10,000 Apr.) to new businesses whose proprietor or director recently graduated. Our organization continues to push its agenda.

  In addition to taking initiative, I managed to lead a group of people to a collective objective that had previously not been identified. Through my leadership, I fected change inBangladesh.

  点评

  结构:

  本篇文章是一篇哈佛商学院关于描述申请这最有意义的领导经历的essay。文章叙述了作者很同情那些年轻的企业家们,他们具有潜在能力但却因为家里或自身没有资金支持而不得不放弃自己创业。作者组织了两次研讨会,最终通过自己和同伴的努力使中央贷款额放宽了,并且使孟加拉国发生了改变。

  分析:

  一流的学校希望,他们培养的学生在将来能成为社会各领域的领导者。他们要寻找的是那些已经表现出非凡领导才能的申请者,因为,过去的表现就是将来的表现最好的象征。了解你的领导才能还能让招生委员会知道,你如何与他人交往,你在群体当中是否表现得很突出,以及你获取成功的决心有多大。

  可借鉴要素:

  申请者常常会讲自己所在的团队取得过重大成就,但是,却很少会讲清楚自己正是这项活动的领导者。另外一些申请者则把这一问题等同于讲述重要成就的短文,焦点放在了最终结果或者成就上,而不是侧重在领导才能方面。还有一些申请者讨论某一职位,通过头衔-他们被指定为领导者并担任这样一个职位,但是,却没能表现他们是怎样来担当这一职位,又是如何出色地完成了任务。被冠以一个领导头衔与在这一职位上做出成绩完全是两码事。

  你的领导品质应该和那些成熟的成年领导者一样:考虑周详、反应敏锐、全身心地投入、决策果断、重视他人意见、有影响并与各种人沟通交流的能力、有把各自独立的个体融合一个位整体的能力、诚实、还要正直。

  译文:

  最有意义的领导经历

  在过去的三年中我投入了大量的时间和精力去改善那些被虐待、被剥夺机会,并且被蔑视的年轻企业家。在我寻求开始我自己的事业时,我面对了许多的障碍,而这些障碍是几乎每一个青年企业家都要经历的。家庭成员中一些已经有了自己的商业的长辈,不愿意年轻的家庭成员再去建立新的事业,相对来说他们宁愿一些年轻成员加入到他们的所谓的“安全的生意”中来。此外,公司和政府组织将不愿跟这些年轻人签合同的,因为在大陆传统思维的影响下,年长一些的人也许并不一定在想法上比年轻人独特,但是他们的年龄会为他们赢得尊敬。面对家庭的不支持和没有任何资金的来源的情况下,年轻企业家们几乎没有成功的机会。

  在这种困难的条件下,我意识到现在还是有很多很有发展潜力的年轻人但是他们缺少的就是别人的支持。和这些人见面后,我鼓励他们去相信我们是可以共同改善整体境遇的。在1996年,我们之中的17个人发起了“年轻企业家协会”。前两年里,我在该协会负责协调工作。我们发现,想要引起足够的重视,我们还需要很多的提升。我们开始进行一系列的社会活动,比如帮助贫困生交注册费,还有组织献血活动等等。

  我们举行了第一次的研讨会,关于“商业软件发展在孟加拉国和其中政府的作用”,5个月之后我们又举行了第二次的研讨会---- “孟加拉国年轻企业家的障碍”并邀请财政大臣作为主要的来宾。在这次研讨会之后,中央银行放宽了贷款数额,最多可以贷10,000美金给那些刚毕业学生创业者。我们的组织继续争取议程。

  在提出倡议的同时,我设法组织一些人去达成那些之前没有达成的目标。通过我的领导,孟加拉国发生了改变。
