I knew a man who was asked to be the new dean(院长) of the College of Business of a large university. When he first arrived, he studied the situation the college faced and felt that what it needed most was money. He recognized that he had a unique capacity to raise money, and he developed a real sense of vision about fund-raising as his primary function.
This created a problem in the college because past deans had focused mainly on meeting day-to-day faculty needs. This new dean was never there. He was running around the country trying to raise money for research. But he was not attending to the day-to-day things as the previous dean had. The faculty, who were used to working with the person at the top, had to work through his administrative assistant.
The faculty became so upset with his absence that they sent a delegation to the president of the university to demand a new dean or a fundamental change in his leadership style. The president, who knew what the dean was doing, said, "Relax. He has a good administrative assistant. Give him some more time. "
Within a short time, the money started pouring in and the faculty began to recognize the vision. It wasn’ t long until every time they saw the dean, they would say, " Get out of here! We don’ t want to see you. Go out and bring in more funds. Your administrative assistant runs this office better than anyone else. "
This man admitted to me later that the mistake he made was not doing enough team building, enough explaining, enough educating about what he was trying to accomplish. From him I learned a powerful lesson. We need to constantly be asking ourselves, "What is needed out there, and what is my unique strength?"
We can learn from the passage that the faculty______.
选项
A、was not well paid for their work
B、didn’ t understand the new dean’ s ideas at first
C、had a conflict with the president of the university
D、didn’t want to work with the administrative assistant
答案
B
解析
根据文章第三段第一句“The faculty became so upset with his absence that they sent a delegation to the president of the university to demand a new dean…”和第四段第一句“Within a short time,the money started pouring in and the faculty began to recognize the vision.”可知,一开始教职工们对新任院长不理政务非常失望,他们派了一名代表向校长投诉,要求换一名新院长,或者现任院长从根本上改变其领导风格。由此可推知,刚开始教职工们不理解新院长的做法,资金引进之后教职工们的看法有所改变,所以应选B。选项A、C、D文中均没有提到。
