2015-07-20  TWM

比爾蓋茲近日接受英國《金融時報》訪談,分享自己年輕時的工作狂模樣,他會在假日上班,會記住每位員工的車牌……;然後自己爆料,年少輕狂的他原本自有一 套「智商階級」理論,所幸,他很快就發現那是一個天大錯誤。看看這位舉世聞名的天才是如何反省自己。(文.蔡曜蓮)My basic theory in my twenties is that IQ was fungible….I basically thought that I should never ask somebody to work for somebody who is not smarter than them. We’ll just have this IQ hierarchy. Well that didn’t work for very long. By age 25, I realised IQ comes in different forms. These guys who understand sales and management, that seems to come negatively correlated with IQ. That was befuddling to me.

我20多歲時有個簡單的理論:智商是可替代的。……我基本上認為聰明人不該為笨蛋工作,我們之間存在智商階級。不過這樣的想法沒有持續太久。25歲時,我發現智商有不同的表現形式,有些深諳行銷和管理的人,工作能力似乎和智商沒有關聯,這曾經一度使我迷惑。

fungible a.) /ˋf?nd?ibl/ 可替代的例句:Words are tools in an information war and facts are fungible.

hierarchy (n.) /ˋhaɪ??rɑrkɪ/ 階級例句:When talking about hierarchy in India, one must include the concept referred to as "caste".
