So you mentioned corruption in your talk, and you&#39re known, well-known as a strong anticorruption fighter.你在你的演讲中提到了腐败，而你作为一个反腐败人士是非常知名的。But that&#39s had consequences. People have fought back, and your mother was kidnapped.但这对你是有很大影响的。那些人反击，你的母亲遭到绑架。How have you been handling this?你是如何应对这些的？It&#

And this mobile money is also providing a platform for access to alternative energy.这项移动支付技术也为获取替代能源提供了一个平台。You know, people who can now pay for solar the same way they pay for cards for their telephone.人们现在可以像支付电话费一样支付太阳能费用。So this was a very good development, something that went right.所以这是个非常好的发展，

So even though we&#39ve been growing, the structure of the economies has not changed very much.即使我们一直在发展，经济的机构并没有什么改变。We are still exporting commodities, and exporting commodities is what? It&#39s exporting jobs.我们仍然出口商品，而出口商业等于什么？等于出口就业岗位。Our manufacturing value-added is only 11 percent.我们的制造业只增值了1

Two, debt. In 1994, the debt-to-GDP ratio of African countries was 130 percent, and they didn&#39t have fiscal space.第二件事，债务。在1994年，非洲国家债务对GDP的比例是130%，而且他们没有财政空间。They couldn&#39t use their resources to invest in their development because they were paying debt.他们无法用自己的资源去投资于自己的发展，因为他们都在偿还债务。There may

My fellow Americans,As Black History Month 2017 comes to a close,我的美国同胞们,在2017年黑人历史月结束之际,I am very grateful for the many wonderful opportunities to honor African American heroes, faith leaders,我非常感激有很多很棒的机会,向非裔美国英雄们,领袖,entrepreneurs and the many others who changed the course of our Nation.企业家和众多其他改变

The second story has to do with something that I&#39m sure most of you have seen or will remember.第二个故事，和那些我相信你们大多数人都见过或者记得相关事情。Very often, countries in Africa suffer drought and floods,非洲的国家常常遭受干旱和洪涝，and it&#39s getting more frequent because of climate change effects.而随着气候变化的影响，它们正发生得越发频繁。When this

We have genius in our young people. I see it every day.我们的年轻人拥有天赋。我每天都看得到。It&#39s what makes me wake up in the morning and feel ready to go.这就是每天早上叫醒我并且让我整装待发的东西。We have to unleash the genius of our young people,我们必须解开我们的年轻人身上天赋的枷锁，get out of their way, support them to create and innovate and lead t

There&#39s a great quote by Muhammad Ali in the museum - &quotI shook up the world,&quot he said.在博物馆里,写着穆罕默德.阿里一句伟大的话-他说,&quot我震撼了这个世界&quot。And that is what he did.这就是他做过的事情。So did leaders like Sojourner Truth, Frederick Douglass, Booker T. Washington, Martin Luther King, and so many others.像索杰纳.特鲁

Now, where do we go from there?现在，我们该走向何方？I believe that the way forward is to learn to manage success.我相信前进的道路就是学会管理成功。Very often, when people succeed or countries succeed, they forget what made them succeed.当一个人成功了，或一个国家成功以后，他们往往会忘记是什么导致他们成功的。Learning what you&#39re successful at, managing it and

The narrative of a rising Africa is being challenged.这是一个正在崛起的非洲面临挑战的故事。About 10 years ago, I spoke about an Africa,大约在十年前，我做了一个关于非洲的演讲，an Africa of hope and opportunity, an Africa of entrepreneurs,讲了一个充满希望和机会的非洲，遍布企业家的非洲，an Africa very different from the Africa that you normally hear about of death

I want every disadvantaged child in America to have a choice about where they go to school - so important.我要每一个美国贫穷的孩子都有机会选择去哪上学--这非常重要。I also want to honor and promote the achievements of Historically Black Colleges and Universities throughout our Nation.我也要在我们国家鼓励和促进黑人学生占大多数的学院和大学发展。They do a fant

The first was that even though we grew, we didn&#39t create enough jobs.一，虽然我们进步，我们却没有创造足够的就业岗位。We didn&#39t create jobs for our youth.我们没有为我们的年轻人创造就业岗位。Youth unemployment on the continent is about 15 percent, and underemployment is a serious problem.在非洲，失业青年大概占15%，而就业不足是一个非常严重的问题。The second thing t

But that narrative is being challenged now然而，这个故事现在遇到了挑战because the continent has not been doing well in the last two years.因为非洲大陆在过去两年内一直表现不佳。It had been growing at five percent per annum for the last one and a half decades,虽然在过去的十五年里，它都是以每年5%的速度在增长，but this year&#39s forecast was three percent. Wh

Do you think the world is going to be a better place next year? In the next decade?你们觉得明年这个世界会变的更好吗？未来十年呢？Can we end hunger, achieve gender equality, halt climate change, all in the next 15 years?我们能不能解决饥饿问题，实现性别平等，停止气候变化，让所有这些都在未来15年内实现？Well, according to the governments of the world, yes we can.那么

How much? Enough to get us to the Global Goals?我们要取得多少进步来到达全球目标呢？Well, let&#39s look at some numbers.咱们来看看这些数字。What we know already: the world today is scoring 61 on social progress, and the place we want to get to is 75.我们已经知道：当今世界的平均社会进步值是61分，我们想要达到的目标是75分。If we rely on economic growth alone, we&#

The Social Progress Index sums all this together using 52 indicators to create an aggregate score on a scale of 0 to 100.“社会进步指数”用52个指标把这些都集中到了一起，算出了一个百分制的总分。And what we find is that there&#39s a wide diversity of performance in the world today.然后我们发现了今天的世界上的国家有各种各样的成绩。The highest performing country

But that ain&#39t easy, because the Global Goals aren&#39t just ambitious, they&#39re also pretty complicated.这并不容易，因为这些全球目标不仅仅很宏大，它们同样也很复杂。Over 17 goals, there are then 169 targets and literally hundreds of indicators.17个大目标下有169个小目标，并且不夸张地说，还有好几百个指标。Also, while some of the goals are pretty specifi

Let me show you on this chart.我来给你们看下这张图。So here on the vertical axis, I&#39ve put social progress, the stuff the Global Goals are trying to achieve.我把社会进步放在这张图的纵轴上，这就是全球目标要努力实现的东西。Higher is better. And then on the horizontal axis, is GDP per capita.越高越好。在横轴上的是人均国内生产总值。Further to the right means ric

Now this seems a bit strange. Economic growth seems to have really helped in the fight against poverty,这看起来就有点奇怪了。经济的增长看起来对解决贫穷问题帮助很大，but it doesn&#39t seem to be having much impact on trying to get to the Global Goals.但它似乎并不能对我们达到全球目标有多大的帮助。So what&#39s going on? Well, I think there are two things.

What that tells us, quite simply, is that GDP is not destiny.这也就很明确地告诉了我们，国内生产总值不是决定性的因素。We have countries that are underperforming on social progress, relative to their wealth.世界上有一些比较富有，然而社会进步得分比较低的国家。Russia has lots of natural resource wealth, but lots of social problems.俄罗斯有很多自然资源财富，但同时也有很多社会问题。

But please, I invite you to suspend your disbelief for just a moment.但是我建议你先搁置你的怀疑一小会儿。Because back in 2001, the UN agreed another set of goals, the Millennium Development Goals.因为回到2001年，那时联合国也同意了另一系列的目标，就是千年发展目标。And the flagship target there was to halve the proportion of people living in poverty

Thank you, Michael. Michael, just one question: the Millennium Development Goals established 15 years ago,谢谢你，Michael。Michael，我就问一个问题：千年发展目标是15年前确立的，they were kind of applying to every country but it turned out to be really a scorecard for emerging countries.当时基本上每个国家都选择要实现这个目标，然而它却真的变成了新兴国家的记分牌。Now

And I want to finish by showing you a way to do that, called the People&#39s Report Card.我想给你们展示一种可行的方法来结束这个演讲，这个方法叫做“人民成绩单”。The People&#39s Report Card brings together all this data“人民成绩单”把所有的数据into a simple framework that we&#39ll all be familiar with from our school days, to hold them to account.

8条职场潜规则，你不可不知1、不要苛求百分百的公平显规则告诉我们要在公平公正的原则下做事，潜规则却说不能苛求上司一碗水端平，尤其是老板更有特权。场外提示：一味追求公平往往不会有好结果，&ldquo追求真理&rdquo的正义使者也容易讨人嫌，有时候，你所知道的表象，不一定能成为申诉的证据或理由，对此你不必愤愤不平，等你深入了解公司的运作文化，慢慢熟悉老板的行事风格，也就能够见惯不怪了。2、莫和同事金钱往来显规则告诉我们同事间要互相帮助团结友爱，潜规则却说不是谁都可以当成借钱人。场外提示：谁让这年头时兴本末倒置，欠账的是爷，赊账的是孙子呢!&ldquo同事&rdquo是以挣钱和事业为目的走到一起的

这是一件真实的事情：国内某著名高校的一位大学生，在考取出国留学的奖学金后，却因焦虑过度而精神失常。原来，他是家中独子，从小备受宠爱，衣来伸手，饭来张口，甚至上了大学，父母还要每周到学校去为他料理生活，一想到自己将要独自一人出国求学，无人照顾，他不知自己将如何生活，以至过于焦虑而失常。后来，这个大学生的父母对记者说了一句令人深思的话：&ldquo我们一心一意地爱他，凡事为他着想，谁知却害了他。&rdquo每当想起这个由&ldquo爱&rdquo而酿成的悲剧，我不由得联想到，在今天有多少孩子像这位大学生一样，生活在父母和教师无微不至的&ldquo爱&rdquo中？又有多少孩子，在不久的将来，是否也
