Global vision and the ability to change and adapt are among the
main qualities needed for a successful global business leader, or a
"new champion", Premier Wen Jiabao said yesterday.
In remarks at a question-and-answer session of the summer
meeting of the World Economic Forum, he said:
A successful entrepreneur is one who has not only knowledge of
the present, but also the ability to foresee global economic and
technological trends, and act appropriately.
He should be courageous enough to change and innovate; and not
bend to adversities or follow predecessors' paths.
He should never cringe when facing difficulties or
obstacles.
Last, but not least, he should be adept at grasping
opportunities which are transient.
