我们的合作了10多年的老客户，是前世界500强的一家国际化知名公司，上海分部的技术部门主管，是一位德国专家，已经在中国生活了10多年，听说他对《道德经》很有兴趣和研究，就在他离沪回到德国就任前，我有幸遇到他，提到了熊春锦先生所勘校的《老子·德道经》，他很有兴趣，也发回了一些关于国外对于《道德经》的研究资料，说有空时会参观位于柏林的道基金会。 这件事情使我联想到：正如我们曾经看到过的资料所言，国外，特别是德国，平均每4个家庭里，就有一本《道德经》，看来是真是不虚的。特别是这些大公司的技术老总，也会关注《道德经》在管理中的应用(Tao Te Ching's management perspective)。所以，在此，把这封邮件分享出来(具体邮箱数据已去除，只提供内容)，以供参考，希望充分重视我们祖先们留下的道德根文化，古为今用。 正如这位老总所说的，基于《老子》的管理学的材料是相当多的(There is quite a lot of material on Management Philosophy based on Tao)，这既是好事，又觉得稍微有点遗憾——难得从“修之于身，其德乃真”为基础来谈治理和管理。 如果您也曾遇到、见到过国外对于《老子》的研究的事例/实例，也请您分享出来。联系邮箱:ecwberlin@163.com,感谢您的参与。 From: [omitted]
Hello Jason,
Sorry for the delayed response due to our move. Thank you for your reference to the professor and Dao Society in Germany. Beyond my appreciation for Dao, my family will look for Chinese connections and we may visit them when we go to Berlin.
BTW: There is quite a lot of material on Management Philosophy based on Tao. I attached an English sample (which I just found – not read). http://www.the-intuitive-self.org/website/documents/publications/tao_managing.pdf
Or a part of https://www.coursehero.com/file/ptnj25/Leadership-and-management-to-Tao-Te-Ching-According-to-Tao-Te-Chings-leadership/ : “Leadership” and “management” to Tao Te Ching According to Tao Te Ching’s leadership point of view, he expounds on various principles, which are integral to a leader, and they include the need to trust people since this makes them feel trustworthy. Additionally, Tao Te Ching notes that a leader requires to know other people since it is intelligence, knowing oneself is true wisdom, mastering other people is strength whereas mastering oneself is true power. Tao Te Ching elaborates that leaders should not over esteem great and influential men because people become powerless, they need to keep it simple when thinking, leaders that know do not talk, and a leader leads by emptying the minds of people. Other leadership principles are that a leader should pretend not to know the answers because it makes their followers find their own way making them innovative, they should act and not just talk, and leaders should do their work and then step back. Hence, this is the path to serenity (Heider, 2014).
In reference to Tao Te Ching’s management perspective, he states that a manager should be a team leader, that they should have their spare time for reflection, they should be aware of what is happening, and they should concentrate on self-improvement. In addition, Tao Te Ching advocates to the managers that they should not pretend to know all the answers since no one knows everything. Thus, a manager should allow group members to have their time for reflection since they are able to see clearly, what is vital in others and themselves (Heider, 2014)
Enjoy your continued collaboration with .... All the best to you!
Best Regards, ..aus ------------------------全文参考翻译如下（感谢仁慧明网友的热情帮助）------------------------------- Hello Jason, 你好，杰森： Sorry for the delayed response due to our move. Thank you for your reference to the professor and Dao Society in Germany. 抱歉由于搬家没能及时回复你。感谢您将教授和德国道德文化社介绍给我。 Beyond my appreciation for Dao, my family will look for Chinese connections and we may visit them when we go to Berlin. 无法表达我对大道的景仰，我的家人将寻找与中国人的联系，在我们去柏林时我们可能会访问他们. BTW: There is quite a lot of material on Management Philosophy based on Tao. I attached an English sample (which I just found – not read). 顺便说一下：根据“道”的原理，有许多在管理哲学方面的内容。我附上了一篇英文的例子（我刚找到的—还没有读） http://www.the-intuitive-self.org/website/documents/publications/tao_managing.pdf Or a part of 或者摘取其一部分如下： https://www.coursehero.com/file/ptnj25/Leadership-and-management-to-Tao-Te-Ching-According-to-Tao-Te-Chings-leadership/ : “Leadership” and “management” to Tao Te Ching According to Tao Te Ching’s leadership point of view, he expounds on various principles, which are integral to a leader, and they include the need to trust people since this makes them feel trustworthy. Additionally, Tao Te Ching notes that a leader requires to know other people since it is intelligence, knowing oneself is true wisdom, mastering other people is strength whereas mastering oneself is true power.

Other leadership principles are that a leader should pretend not to know the answers because it makes their followers find their own way making them innovative, they should act and not just talk, and leaders should do their work and then step back. Hence, this is the path to serenity (Heider, 2014). 《道德经》对“领导”与“管理”的论述。根据《道德经》的领导观，他对各种原则都作了解释，这对一个领导者来说是要整体把握的。他们需要去信任别人，因为这样做会使人感到值得信赖。此外，《道德经》指出：一个领导需要了解其它人因为这是聪明；而了解自己则是智慧；能掌控他人是力量而掌控了自己则是真正的有力量。（这段应该是《老子·德道经》第七十七章“尽己”的内容——译注）。《道德经》还仔细地阐述：领导者不应该过度地尊敬伟大的和有影响的人物，因为他们而使人民变得没有权力了；在思考问题时要简单化；知者不言；一个领导者是通过腾空人们的头脑思想来领导的。其它的领导原则还有：一个领导应该假装不知道其答案是什么，因为这样可以使他的下属通过各自的方式来去找答案从而发挥他们的创新能力；他们应该去行动而不只是在说；领导者们应该去做他们的工作然后再退位。这样，才是走向通往宁静的渠道。 In reference to Tao Te Ching’s management perspective, he states that a manager should be a team leader, that they should have their spare time for reflection, they should be aware of what is happening, and they should concentrate on self-improvement. In addition, Tao Te Ching advocates to the managers that they should not pretend to know all the answers since no one knows everything. Thus, a manager should allow group members to have their time for reflection since they are able to see clearly, what is vital in others and themselves (Heider, 2014) 关于《道德经》在管理方面的观点，他指出一个管理者应当是一个团队的领导，他应该给自己留出空闲时间以思考；他应当意识到什么事情正在发生；他应当努力进行自我修养和提高。此外，《道德经》对管理者提倡不要假装知道所有的答案，因为没有人知道一切事情。这样，一个管理者应当允许集体的成员去用他们的时间去思考，因为他们能够清楚地看见：在他人身上和他们自己身上什么是最重要的。 Enjoy your continued collaboration with ....
