9、 Really Smart LeadersIntelligence makes for better leadersfrom undergraduates to managers to presidentsaccording to multiple studies. It certainly makes sense that handling a market shift or anything alike require intelligence. But new research on leadership suggests that, at a certain point, having

10、 a higher IQ stops helping and starts hurting.Although previous research has shown that groups with smarter leaders perform better by objective measures, some studies have suggested that followers might subjectively view leaders with extremely high intellect as less effective. Decades ago, Dean Simo

11、nton, a psychologist from the University of California, Davis, proposed that brilliant leaders words may simply go over peoples heads, their solutions could be more complicated to carry out and followers might find it harder to relate to them. Now Simonton and two colleagues have finally tested that

12、 idea, publishing their results in the July 2017 issue of the Journal of Applied Psychology.The researchers looked at 379 male and female business leaders in 30 countries across fields including banking, retail and technology. The managers took IQ tests and each was rated (定级) on leadership style an

13、d effectiveness by an average of eight co-workers. IQ positively correlated(和正相关) with ratings of leader effectiveness, strategy formation, vision and several other characteristicsup to a point. The ratings peaked at an IQ of around 120, which is higher than roughly 80 percent of office workers. Bey

14、ond that, the ratings declined. The researchers suggest the ideal IQ could be higher or lower in various fields, to 140 or 100, depending on whether technical or social skills are more valued in a given work culture.Its an interesting and thoughtful paper, says Paul Sackett, a management professor a

15、t University of Minnesota, who was not involved in the research.To me, the right interpretation of the work would be that it highlights a need to understand what high-IQ leaders do that leads to lower understanding by followers, he says. The wrong interpretation would be, Dont hire high-IQ leaders.T

16、he studys lead author, John Antonakis, a psychologist at the University of Lausanne in Switzerland, suggests leaders should use their intelligence to use creative language that will persuade and inspire othersthe way former U.S. President Barack Obama did. I think the only way a smart person can sig

17、nal their intelligence properly and still connect with the people, Antonakis says, is to speak in charming ways.21According to the first paragraph, we know that _.A. leaders with high IQ do not have effective leadershipB. effective business depends on the intelligence of leadersC. leaders with highe

18、r IQ may do harm to group effectivenessD. the higher IQ leaders have, the stronger leadership they possess22According to Simonton, managers with an IQ of about _ are probably the most effective.A. 80B. 100C. 120D. 14023What is Paul Sacketts attitude towards hiring high-IQ leaders?A. Unconcerned.B. P

19、ositive.C. Doubtful.D. Unclear.24Barack Obama is mentioned in the last paragraph to _.A. encourage us to learn more about leadershipB. explain how intelligent people achieve successC. show creativity is more important than intelligenceD. emphasize the importance of using intelligence properlyGarden

21、 with candles and lanterns, food prepared and set in long buffet tables for the guests, and comfortable seating always within reach.People tended to dress up for these types of outdoor events, which made them quite a festive occasion.

No longer just an event for the well to do, the garden party is a weekend gathering in many neighborhoods. Neighbors are invited to come enjoy the outdoors by attending a cookout, c

23、omplete with plenty of grilled food, lots of seating, and usually plenty to drink. It is not unusual for a few simple games to be available as well, depending on the size of the space. Music does not necessarily have to be provided by a live band anymore, although some people prefer the chatter and

24、laughter of people enjoying themselves to any type of musical accompaniment.The modern version can be very free form, or use a special occasion or theme as the basis for the event. For example, a birthday is a great reason to throw this type of party. Major patriotic holidays often provide the theme

25、, with the decorations revolving around the national colors and other symbols. Fun times, such as Valentines Day or and Easter egg hunt, can also be the reason for putting together a party.
