4月3日,波黑前总理、我院特聘教授兹拉特科·拉古姆季亚(Zlatko Lagumdzija)特意给我院师生发来视频,寄语师生们通过这次疫情经历,要从中得到有益的启示。他认为,就是要深刻理解五个关键词,努力为建设美好新世界做出自己的贡献。
下面是他视频的中英文内容。
我们都正在见证着当今世界所发生的巨大变化。我们开始明白了,疫情后需要创建一个怎样的新世界。我们需要前所未有的领导力,我希望全球的政治精英、商业领袖、社会名流和学术大咖们都能从疫情中吸取教训,并意识到疫情对我们未来生活的巨大影响。我期待着,也更相信世界各地的新一代领导者能够做出真正的、必要的改变。
最近我与一些优秀的新生代师生交流后,感到我们共同的未来会更加美好,更加值得期待。你们,我的新兴市场研究院的师生同仁们,毫无疑问地也是我所熟悉的这些最优秀的未来领袖中的部分成员,也是你们所在的社区、企业、国家和我们这个世界所需要的部分优秀人才。
去年,当我在给你们讲授的课程(《领导力》)的最后一节课上,我请你们给我五个关键词:在我们为实现可持续发展而奋斗的新时代,哪五个关键词可以定义新时代的领导力?我们当时就此展开了激烈地讨论。我综合了大家的看法,结合我自己的体会,现在把这五个关键词提供给大家,作为一个新的起点——也是我的新起点——来理解新时代的领导力。我深深地感受到,我们去年的讨论是很有意义和价值的,因为这五个关键词所体现出的领导力正是全球共同抗击致命病毒和建设我们共享的可持续发展社会所需要的。让我们一起努力来构建一个疫情后的新世界吧。
第一个关键词:愿景。无论我们是否在当前巨变中扮演何种角色,疫情后的世界都将变得很不一样。我们需要对此做出预判,只有我们明白了想要一个怎样的世界,才有可能创造出一个符合我们愿景的新世界。
第二个关键词:价值观。好的价值观促使我们成为更好的人,成为更好的自己,成为更好的群体,大家求同存异,同舟共济。价值观作为指导性的原则,使我们明白,在这个繁华的世界,以及在我们自己的国家和群体中,需要什么样的领导力。如果我们强调使人们团结起来的价值观,那么加强国际合作就是可能的。我们希望这次疫情经历能促使我们更加团结起来,共同建设一个更加共享和互助的未来世界。
第三个关键词:坚持。在面对前所未有的困难时,我们绝不放弃。我们从每一次的失败中吸取教训,然后再站立起来,继续为实现我们的共同愿景而奋斗。
第四个关键词:合作。就是要一起努力,要分享责任与义务,分享知识与智慧,分享财富与成功。
最后的关键词就是激情。在漫长曲折的人生道路上,我们要始终对我们所从事的工作满怀激情,以共同价值观为导向,以坚持为动力,找到共同愿景下的伙伴并与之密切合作,共同奋斗。
这就是我所找到的关键词:愿景、价值观、坚持、合作与激情。你们也去找找你自己的关键词吧。你自己所找的关键词,将帮助你在人生道路上明确奋斗目标、深度反省和思考、给予关怀与厚爱,这样虽然(在疫情中)人与人之间的物理距离远了,但社会距离却近了。
祝你们一帆风顺!

Zlatko Lagumdzija 教授视频英文原文如下
We are all witnessing time of great changes from the current world. We started understanding the new post-Corona world that we have to created. Leadership is needed as never before in our lifetime, hoping the global political, business, social and academic leaders have learned lessons from Corona epidemic and its impact on our lives. I am looking forward and having more trusts in the new generation of leaders in different parts of the world that can make real and necessary changes.
Recently I have been meeting with some brilliant new generation leaders, which are making me confident that our shared future may be better than it looks now. You, my colleagues from Emerging Markets Institue are definitely among the brightest leaders that your communities, businesses, countries, and the brand new world in front of us needs.
In the end of our gathering last year, I asked you to give me five key words that are defining leadership in a time of sustainable development that we are striving for. After our discussion, five words I consolidated myself, and now I am offering them to you as some kind of starting point-my starting point -for leadership in a battle against deadly virus and sustainable development in shared society of post-Corona world, that we will be witnessing and working along together.
First key word, vision. World will be different with or without our role in great changes that are in front of us, but we can predicate the way to look, like only by creating it the way we want to see it.
Values. Values are making us better people, ourselves, and our communities in which we are united in our differences. Values as guiding principles along which leadership should be defined in the prosperous world as well as our individual communities or countries. Strengthening international cooperation is possible if we address the values that unit our people and unit us. We hope that this horrific experience will lead to more shared and supported picture for the future.
Persistence is not giving up while confronting the problems that have never been presented before. Every failure has to be a lesson learned and understood before we get up and keep fighting for fulfillment of our shared vision.
And forth word, partnership. It is about working together. It is about sharing responsibility and creativity, knowledge and wisdom, as well as assets and liabilities.
And finally, passion. Passion for sharing your work in life along the long and winding road, marked with shared values and energized with persistence, in partnership with stakeholders defined by shared vision.
Now find your own words, like I did mine: vision, values, persistence, partnership, passion. Your own words that will help you on a journey to share goals, think, take care, distance physically and get closer socially.
Good luck!
