以下内容凭证美国西北大学凯洛格商学院常务副院长Betsy Ziegler教授于7月1日在北大伟易博EMBA2017年度结业仪式上的致辞整理：
各人早上好。谢谢刘院长、谢谢冒书记、谢谢李副院长、谢谢翟教授，谢谢整个EMBA团队。列位尊重的教职员工、列位嘉宾、列位向导、全体结业生同砚、亲爱的家人朋侪们，我很是容幸今天能和各人汇聚一堂，共享盛会。
Good morning everyone. Thank you Dean Liu. And thank you Associate Dean Li, Professor Mao, Prof Zhai and the entire Executive MBA team. Faculty members, distinguished guests, administrators, graduates, family members and friends, I am honored to be here with you for this special occasion.
在我的职业生涯中，我曾多次踏上中国的土地，今天能够重新回到这片热土，我心中满怀兴奋之情。对我而言，这里一经是我学习与生涯过的地方，这里也是一个充满勃勃生气的地方，一个充满着天马行空的立异头脑的地方，更是一个拥有着无限的可能性的地方。
In the course of my career, I traveled to China many times and I am delighted to be back. It is clear to me that this is a wonderful place to come together as a community and to learn, a place of great energy, innovation and full of possibility.
今天能够站在这里，能够同时与伟易博EMBA项目和北大伟易博-凯洛格国际EMBA项目的所有结业生们分享这一伟大的时刻，我深感幸运。
It is a special privilege for me to be here today with graduates from both programs–the Guanghua EMBA program and the Kellogg- Guanghua Executive MBA program.
今天，关于全体2017年度结业生而言，是人生主要的里程碑，你们两年来的起劲学习和真诚投入在今天奏出热潮的篇章。
Today marks a wonderful milestone for all the 2017 graduates—the culmination of two years of hard work and great commitment.
今天，对你们的家人、同伴、朋侪、尚有那些现在正与你们共享喜悦的导师们来说，同样意义特殊。在他们的鼎力大举支持与耐心教育下，你们各人都已经完成了EMBA之旅，并为人生下一征程整装待发。
This is also a milestone for your families, partners, friends and mentors who are celebrating with you today. With their support and patience, you’ve reached the end of your EMBA journey and are primed for the next stage of your trajectory.
在这里，我谨代表布朗特院长、代表凯洛格商学院所有教职员工，对所有结业生取得的傲人效果体现衷心的祝贺。
On behalf of Dean Blount, the entire Kellogg faculty and community, I congratulate to all the graduates on your exceptional achievement.
你们要肩负起搭建交流桥梁和网络的重任
Counting on you to build bridges and networks
虽然各人只是北大伟易博-凯洛格国际EMBA项目的第二个结业班，可是两个优异学院之间却有着20年之久的渊源。多年以来，双方的教学职员和学校向导们通力相助，与所有同砚配合分享知识学识、配合构建头脑向导能力、配合开拓国际视野。他们的一言一行，恰恰体现了相助的实力，体现了交流网络的价值。
Though this is only the second graduating class of the Guanghua–Kellogg joint program, the relationship and cooperation between the two schools is 20 years old. Over the years, the faculties and leaders of these great institutions worked together to share knowledge, thought leadership and international experience with our students. They modeled the power of collaboration and the value of networks.
在商业情形和市场配景日趋重大的今天，无数企业都急需合适的向导者——他们能够搭建起种种结构和规模的网络，无论是在多功效网络照旧跨界线网络、抑或是跨文化网络领域，他们都能体现得驾轻就熟。你们的使命即是成为这样的向导者。你们将要肩负起人们的重托，运用商业的实力，为人们带来更多的交流联系，为更多人带来更为优异的生涯条件，让人们团结一心、配合生长。
As businesses and markets become increasingly complex, organizations need leaders who can build and succeed in networks of all shape and size - across functions, borders and cultures. The world will look to you to be those leaders. We will be counting on you to use the power of business to create more connections, improve more lives and bring us together.
四则“人生格言”
Four“life mottos”
你们各人都已经准备好了面临21世纪带来的种种挑战，但还请各人能够允许我多说几句，在这里，我有几则“人生格言”，与各人共勉，希望各人能够在你们接下来的人生旅程中，每次作出决议时，都可以细细品味一番。
I know you are well prepared to meet the challenges of the 21st century, but if you will indulge me, I’d like to offer a few“life mottos”to consider as you take the next step in your life journey.
首先，要起劲做到未雨绸缪，以争取绚烂成绩：不管是对何人而言，不管其处于什么样的专业境遇中，各人都要先在脑海中清晰勾勒出自己想要告竣的目的，仔细思索历程中可能泛起的挑战，预先剖析好所处的情境，提前准备盛意外情形的应对要领以备时时之需。只管各人可能不肯按我说的要领去做，可要做到这样的充分准备，需要各人拿出时间悄悄思索，需要各人有过硬的组织能力，也需要各人能够清晰地熟悉到事实什么才对自己至关主要。
One, Aspire to achieve no unmanaged outcomes: For any personal or professional situation, envision the outcome you desire, think through potential challenges, get out ahead of the situation and pre-solve for any issues. This requires moments of deep thinking, great organization and the courage to articulate what is important to you–despite potential resistance.
其次，要重视导师与学员之间的关系生长：导师对各人的前进生长至关主要，由于我们各人都会需要资助，也都有灵光一闪的智慧头脑需要与别人分享。我差未几每五年就替换一次私人导师。随着时光急遽流逝，我会遇到种种各样的问题、需要种种各样的资助指导，而众多的导师完善地知足了我的要求。在我的一生中，师生关系成为了上天给予我的最为名贵的恩赐。
Two, Cultivate mentor and mentee relationships: Mentors matter–we all need support and we all have wisdom to offer. My personal mentors have changed every five years or so. I’ve needed different guidance over time and different mentors to meet those needs. My mentor-mentee relationships have been some of the most rewarding in my life
第三：一小我私家在犯过失之后的反应，要比过失自己更值得重视。各人都会犯过失，有些过失可能会很是严重，而也有些过失可能微缺乏道。在职业生涯中，我也犯过不少过失。你们的导师、先进们可能不肯提及自己一经所犯的过失，可这些过失一定真实地爆发过。就我的小我私家履向来看，人们不会去记着这些过失，也不会记着这些过失的负面影响，人们会记着的是你们在面临这些情形时的态度。你们的忠实态度、你们的坚韧不拔、尚有你们由此给人留下的高峻正直的形象，将会冲淡过失造成的其他所有负面影响。
Three: Focus on your response to the“bounce or mistake”vs. the“bounce”itself: You will make mistakes. Some will be big, and some will be small. I’ve made many over my career. Your mentors and those more senior than you have also made them, even though they may not talk abut them. In my experience, people won’t remember the mistakes themselves (or the negative bounce), they will remember how you respond to thosesituations. Attitude, perseverance, standing tall supersedes all else.
最后，要有一个清晰的妄想，让自己的人生充分、愉快：我入职时的第一份事情在麦肯锡公司，在那里，我每隔半年就会扪心自问：我有没有学到知识？我有没有让自己变得有价值？我有没有坚持身心愉悦？
Four, plan to live a full and happy life: Every 6 months that I was at McKinsey–where I started my career - , I asked myself–Am I still learning? Am I still making an impact? Am I still having fun?
11年来，我每次这样诘责自己，都能获得一定的回覆�？傻搅说�11年，我再次这样诘责自己的时间，却以为心里不是那么有底气了。以是，我列出了一份“40×40”的清单，即40岁前要完成的40件事情，那年我37岁。写完之后，我便最先凭证清简单项一项执行。我的整个天下也随之豁然爽朗。我去浏览了好莱坞颁奖仪式，旅行了圣丹斯影戏节，游历了天下各地，加入了阿斯彭头脑节，等等。随后，我又做出了决议，加入了凯洛格商学院的各人庭。
For 11 years, the answers to these questions were yes. At year 11, I started to feel differently, so wrote out a 40x40 list (things I wanted to do by the time I was 40, I was 37 at the time) and started executing. My world totally opened up. I went to a Hollywood award show, Sundance film festival, travelled around the globe, attended the Aspen Ideas Festival…and I made choices that got me to Kellogg.
我深深地坚信，要想获得完满和幸福的人生必需有所妄想。但我们很容易陷入一样平常的繁琐通例，陷入笃志苦干，用职业上的成绩来界说人生价值。但我们需要判断从恒久来看对我们真正主要的工具，而未必是在他人眼中主要的工具。这样我们才华够举行有益的选择，给我们带来最大的人生幸福。也许你所想选择的蹊径，在旁人看来是猖獗和冒险的。可是若是你坚信，这条蹊径就是通向幸�？炖值谋税�，那么请你勇敢地迈开程序，起劲向着远方前进。
I firmly believe that you have to plan to live a full and happy life. It is so easy to get caught up in the routine, put your head down and work, and define yourself by your professional accomplishments. Figure out what is important to you over time (not necessarily what others think is important), and make intentional choices that bring you the greatest personal happiness. You may want to walk down a path that everyone around you thinks is crazy or risky. If you have conviction that this path will make you happy, make the brave choice and take it.
手握EMBA学位，在你眼前会翻开无数扇新的大门和新的机缘。兴起勇气，把对自己最主要的事物清晰地印在心里，把这些都看成前进蹊径上的指路明灯，指引着自己做出要害决议，实现无悔人生。
With an EMBA in hand, many new doors and opportunities will be open to you. Be courageous, articulate what is most important to you and use that as your guidepost for navigating life’s big decisions.
