盖茨今年推荐的书单里也不尽是刚刚出版的新作,比如这本07年问世的旧书。书中作者提出了两种思维模式:僵固式思维模式(fixed mindset)和成长式思维模式(growth mindset)。前者倾向于认为人的能力无法改变,而后者则认为人的基本品质可以通过努力不断提高。 无论是精明商人还是普通父母,都能从这本书里受益。
盖茨评语:Through clever research studies and engaging writing, Dweck illuminates how our beliefs about our capabilities exert tremendous influence on how we learn and which paths we take in life. The value of this book extends way beyond the world of education. It's just as relevant for businesspeople who want to cultivate talent and for parents who want to raise their kids to thrive on challenge.
The Vital Question, by Nick Lane
最后盖茨还把“荣誉奖(honorable mention)”给了The Vital Question,这本书讲述了线粒体和地球生命的起源。
Inc.com的资深编辑Geoffrey James回忆说,多年前采访盖茨的时候,他聊的都是技术、商业类的话题,而如今的盖茨俨然成为了一名人生导师。
When I interviewed him back during his Microsoft years, he was all about the business of technology. Today, he's like the mentor we all wish we had. So much energy in business today is all about the push-push-push for success, so it's refreshing to see an icon of entrepreneurship who no longer needs to posture or preen but instead wants to share, wisely and well, what he's acquired and learned.
