Features: Harvard Business Review is the prestigious journal of Harvard Business School, founded in 1922. As one of the authoritative journals in the field of management theory and practice, Harvard Business Review has always been committed to discovering and disseminating cutting-edge ideas, perspectives, and methods in the field of business administration, helping managers continuously update their concepts, broaden their horizons, adapt to changes, and keep pace with the times. Harvard Business Review is widely regarded by readers as one of the most authoritative, thought-provoking, valuable, and unique journals in the international management field. Harvard University has accumulated substantial achievements in leadership research, and Harvard Business Review has published many influential articles on leadership. Recently, Dr. Zeng Xiangang translated a collection of essays from Harvard Business Review, reflecting valuable insights on leadership research. It is believed that the publication of this Chinese translation will benefit Chinese entrepreneurs and scholars studying leadership. Finally, it should be noted that leadership is not learned but earned. The success of any leader comes from their unique insights into their career and life. Therefore, any successful leader is unrepeatable. The reason we learn from others' experiences and lessons is to avoid detours; yet, to stand firm, avoid being eliminated, and achieve sustainable development, the key lies in perceiving and influencing the development and changes of surrounding things in our own unique way, thereby gaining a distinctive comparative advantage.
