43、05So whether I like it or not,not being invited to the friendswedding,my lizard brain is generating the same response asif Im about to be pushed out from my community.所以不管我喜不喜欢,没有被邀请参加朋友的婚礼,我那原始的大脑都会产生反应,让我感觉像被集体排斥了一样。09:07So science explains quite nicely why fairness is good and whyunfairness makes
44、 us really defensive,but science also showsthat in a fair environment,not only do we all want to be thesquare,but we tend to be the square,and this allows otherpeople to be fair in turn.因此,科学很好的说明了 为什么公平很好,为什么不公平让我们如此抵触,但科学同样说明了 在一个公平的环境里,我们不只是想成为那个方块,在潜意识里就是这么认为的。这让其他人也渐渐地想要变得公平。09:20This creates a

47、ference between 3,000 happy,motivated team workers and 3,000 clock-watchers iseverything.我对这些事很担心,是因为我领导着 一个有着三千位优秀员工的团队。最重要的,就是三千名快乐,充满动力的员工和三千名看着表 等着下班的人之间的区别。10:06So the first thing I try to do in my fairness crusade is to try totake myself out of the equation.所以,在我的公平改革之中,我尝试的第一件事情就是 就是把我自己去掉。10
48、:20That means being aware of my own biases.我的意思是了解自己的偏见。10:29For example,I really like people who say yes to whatever Isuggest.比如,我特别喜欢 那些不管我说什么 都同意的人。10:31(Laughter)But thats not very good for the company and notvery good for anyone who has different ideas.(笑声)但是这对于一个公司 来说不是什么好事,对于那些持有不同意见的人也不好。10:
