1
Now turn to part three.
2
You'll hear five different employees talking about what makes a good boss.
3
For questions 19 to 23, choose which of the opinions each speaker expresses.
4
Use the letters only once.
5
There is one extra letter which you do not need to use.
6
You now have 30 seconds in which to look at part 3.
7
Speaker 1 Some people still think that leaders are born, not made.
8
They say, no matter how hard you study and how many diplomas you collect, at the end of the day, if you've got natural skills, such as a strong character, that's all you'll need.
9
I think that's nonsense.
10
Leadership is all about commanding respect.
11
If a boss says to me, for example, look, your computer skills need upgrading, I'll think, right, this person has a degree in computing, I don't, so he must be right.
12
But if it's the other way around, then you feel, well, maybe I should be boss.
13
Speaker 2
14
Well, the sort of leaders
15
that I actually admire are not the top dogs in suits with a degree in management
16
and a belief that nobody can do things as well as they can.
17
One thing I've learned from all my experience in different jobs is that to be a really good boss, you have to be good at encouraging the people under you to decide on important issues,
18
creating a situation in which other people can shine.
19
Of course, this does not mean the boss's job is any easier.
20
It's still a challenge, but so much more rewarding for everyone.
21
Speaker 3 Since I left school, I've done a number of short-term office jobs,
22
and I must say I'm beginning to realise how important it is to have the right sort of person directing your work.
23
To develop all my potential I need to be told when I'm doing something well
24
And also the areas where I could improve
25
I think the earlier you get formal and informal feedback the better Otherwise you develop bad habits
26
Some of my workmates don't agree with me
27
when I say it's good to meet regularly with your boss They think I'm trying to be better than them
28
Speaker 4 Of course we all want bosses who are knowledgeable and who bring energy to the job.
29
And I must say, in my opinion, most people who reach top job positions do possess these qualities.
30
However, what really matters is the ability to bring people together.
31
Leaders often mistakenly encourage people to work on their own, kind of in isolation, because they're afraid of the strength of groups.
32
They think maybe they'll criticise or even join forces against the leader.
33
Such leaders need to go on management courses to look at good examples of leadership.
34
Well, in the organisation where I work, each department has a leader, a boss.
35
And because I've worked in six of these departments, I've had six different bosses.
36
I must say there's been very little to complain about, except that we are being asked to do an enormous amount of extra work, and some of the bosses don't seem to be doing long hours like the rest of us.
37
It is true that after work they may have to attend special management courses, or meet individual members of staff to discuss performance, but this only happens occasionally.
38
Now you'll hear part three again.
39
Speaker one.
40
Some people still think that leaders are born, not made.
41
They say no matter how hard you study and how many diplomas you collect, At the end of the day, if you've got natural skills, such as a strong character, that's all you'll need.
42
I think that's nonsense.
43
Leadership is all about commanding respect.
44
If a boss says to me, for example, Luke, your computer skills need upgrading, I'll think, right, this person has a degree in computing, I don't, so he must be right.
45
But if it's the other way around, then you feel, well, maybe I should be boss.
46
Speaker 2

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?

Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
