Sun Tzu Art Of Leadership: Be Secretive


If you observe great leaders, do they talk a lot? They may share their vision and dreams with their people.


But behind the scenes, do they tell you or even their people what they are going to do to achieve the goals?


In life, you have to be secretive. We live in a world of competition. While you may not be the one who wants to compete, some people want to compete with you.


When you are working, you are competing with your colleagues; when you are running a business, you are already competing with other companies.

  

The best way to compete with your competitors is by being silent. Be secretive.


In the Art Of Leadership, Sun Tzu says,


The divine art of subtlety and secrecy! Through you, we learn to be invincible and silent; hence, he is the master on the enemy's fate.
His attacks cannot be challenged by going after the enemy's weak points; you may retire and be safe from pursuit if your movements are faster than those of your enemy.

As Sun Tzu says, by being subtle and secretive, those who want to compete against you will not know your movements and intentions. Then, they will not be able to disturb or attack you.


Your career and business will progress because no one knows where you are going or what you will do next.


Expanding on Sun Tzu's timeless wisdom, the art of subtlety and secrecy in competition goes beyond mere concealment of actions; it is about strategic mastery.


Sun Tzu would say,


By shrouding your intentions and movements in mystery, you create a veil of uncertainty that shields you from the prying eyes of adversaries.

This element of surprise not only keeps them at bay but also confounds their ability to strategize effectively against you.


Translating Sun Tzu's Art of War principle into the realm of career and business, the advantage of ambiguity becomes even more pronounced.


By keeping your path shrouded in mystery, you have the ability to shape your career path as you see fit.


Without a clear line of sight into your plans, competitors are left scrambling to anticipate your next move, giving you a decisive edge in the ever-changing landscape of success.
