What I learned from Mr. Kitashiro's presentation

First of all, I would like to take this opportunity to thank Mr. Kitashiro personally and to extend my appreciation to Ken for providing such an outstanding presentation which I will miss greatly.
I learned from Mr. Kitashiro lots of things particularly strategies for leaderships. All what he said were interesting, but some of them particularly caught my heart. Let me tell you those.

  1. Never give up, but withdraw if necessary
  2. Walk the talk, lead by example
  3. Take calculated risk
As for the first, I wondered how we know when to withdraw because when we are so concentrated in one thing, we would be lost in the lure and would not be able to see when to quit. So I asked him about it after class. He answered "You would know when to quit by learning through experience, so just go through lots of things. Intuition is everything".
As for the second, it means "Do what you said", "Carry out your word", or "Make good on your promise". It is important for a leader to say something and take up the running.
As for the third, it is mentioned in Chapter 3 & 10. A leader must understand the effect of failure. Then, search for a good solution with great creativity.
