過度樂觀會傷害你的團隊

領導主管通常要表現出對於工作任務的樂觀態度。他的自信，“做得到”的態度可以激勵他人。但是，這樣的自信樂觀的態度也有反面作用。

對於一個實際上很艱難的項目，如果持著過於正面的觀點，可能會讓人們以為不需要做很大的煎熬就可以輕易完成。而且，如果你自己輕忽低估了你的團隊將面臨的問題，反而會讓別人來擔心那些風險。你也可能因此送出了一個錯誤的信息，讓別人誤會以為你做過所有的評估，不會有任何問題。

有經驗的領導主管都知道錯誤通常是難以避免的，而失敗是產生創意的必要代價。

所以，下次與其問你的團隊成員，是否有信心，不如問有多大的困難？讓大家務實的面對可能的挑戰。

Overoptimism hurts your team

Leaders usually show optimism about their work tasks. His self-confidence and "can do" attitude can inspire others. However, such a confident and optimistic attitude also has a negative effect.

For a project that is actually very difficult, if you take a positive view, people may think that it can be easily accomplished without much suffering. Moreover, if you neglect to underestimate the problems your team will face, it will cause others to worry about those risks. You may also send out a wrong message, misleading others into thinking that you have done all the evaluations and that there will be no problem.

Experienced executives know that mistakes are often unavoidable, and failure is a necessary price for creativity.

So next time, instead of asking your team members if they are confident, how difficult is it? Let us face the possible challenges pragmatically.
