5.每位領導人都應具備的一項素質是什么？

聘用最優秀的人，聽他們怎么說。當一個好的聆聽者是成為一個杰出領導人的必要素質。

6.你的一生中希望實現的目標是什么？

我想推動立法，確保減少溫室氣體排放。我們需要給碳排放定價，確保減少氣候污染，激勵企業家構建新型低碳經濟，因為這才是走向持續繁榮的唯一途徑。

7.你最近看的一本書是什么？

丹尼爾?詹姆士?布朗寫的《船中少年》(The Boys in the Boat）。這本書講的是協作的力量。這正是人們在保護環境方面欠缺的東西，盡管我們都在同一條船上。

8.你在學校學到的最重要的東西是什么？

環境經濟學和市場的力量。市場可以像磁鐵一樣將腦力和資本引向綠色解決方案。如果環境保護能帶來經濟效益，人們就會想出各種方式來實現它。

9.你的第一份工作是什么？

為康涅狄格州紐黑文市評估城市項目的環境影響。我記得寫過一份非常精彩的備忘錄。我的上司讓我了解到為什么一種完全不同的方式(理解其他角度)更有可能產生效果。

10.你有什么愛好？

大多數早晨我都會早起去劃船，而且一有機會就躍躍欲試要一比高低。劃船是我們全家都喜愛的一項運動，它讓我們有更多時間待在一起。（財富中文網）??

5. What is one characteristic that every leader should possess?

Hire the best people, then listen to what they say. Being a good listener is essential to good leadership.

6. What is one goal that you would like to accomplish during your lifetime?

I'd like to help create the law that guarantees reductions in greenhouse gas emissions. We need to price carbon in a way that assures we reduce climate pollution and inspires entrepreneurs to build the new low-carbon economy, because that's the only route to lasting prosperity.

7. What was the last book you read?

The Boys in the Boat by Daniel James Brown. It speaks to the power of working together. That's something people often lack when it comes to protecting the environment, even though we're all in the same boat.

8. What was the most important thing you learned in school?

Environmental economics and the power of markets. Markets can act like a magnet to pull brainpower and capital toward green solutions. If you make environmental protection pay, people will invent all kinds of ways to make it happen.

9. What was your first job?

I worked for the City of New Haven, Conn., assessing the environmental impacts of city projects. I recall writing a really strong memo. My supervisor helped me see why a completely different approach, one that acknowledged other perspectives, was more likely to be effective.

10. What do you do for fun?

I get up early most mornings to row, and I admit it's a rush to row competitively when I get the chance. Rowing is a sport my whole family enjoys, so it gives us more time together.
