What is the first column that you read when opening the latest issue of your favorite magazine? If you do not jump to the “People in Control” column, you are an outlier. Most people tell me that it is the first (if not the only) column they read. I, myself, enjoy reading those interviews. They remind me of the diversity of conversations during a conference banquet, when we routinely speak around the same table with individuals from six or seven different nations, cultures, backgrounds, ages, and genders. We all share a common language, and we can all grasp the gritty allusion to the plenary lecture of the morning but through such a diversity of lenses! It is a blessing of our profession to experience the diversity of humanity: always for the better and never for the worse.

当您打开您最喜欢的杂志的最新一期时，您读到的第一栏是什么？如果你不跳到“掌控者”一栏，那么你就是一个局外人。大多数人告诉我，这是他们阅读的第一个（如果不是唯一的）专栏。我本人很喜欢阅读这些采访。它们让我想起会议宴会期间对话的多样性，当时我们经常与来自六七个不同国家、文化、背景、年龄和性别的人围坐在同一张桌子旁交谈。我们都有共同的语言，而且我们都可以通过如此多样化的视角来理解上午全体会议的精辟暗示！体验人类的多样性是我们职业的幸事：总是变得更好，永远不会变得更糟。
