"اگر کلمات فرمان واضح و مشخص نباشند، اگر دستورات به خوبی درک نشوند، آنگاه گناه بر گردن فرمانده است. اما، اگر دستورات واضح باشند و با این حال سربازان از آنها سرپیچی کنند، آنگاه این خطا بر عهده افسران آنها است."
— Sun Tzu
Simplified Meaning:
When giving directions or instructions, it's crucial that they are clear and easy to understand. Imagine you're in a classroom; if the teacher gives confusing homework instructions, and the students can't figure out what to do, it's the teacher’s fault. They didn't explain it well. However, if the teacher explains everything clearly, and the students still choose not to do their homework, then the responsibility falls on the students. This teaches us that good leaders must communicate effectively. If you're in charge, make sure your team knows exactly what to do. And if problems happen despite clear directions, it might be due to lack of effort or discipline from the team, not poor leadership.
