During a speech, a famous entrepreneur was asked by an audience member: "You have achieved great success in your career. What do you consider the most important thing?"
Instead of answering directly, the entrepreneur picked up a piece of chalk and drew a circle on the blackboard. However, he did not complete it, leaving a gap. He asked, "What is this?" The audience responded with various answers such as "Zero," "Circle," "Unfinished business," or "Success."
Without confirming or denying their answers, he explained: "Actually, it is just an incomplete period. The reason I have achieved such remarkable performance is simple: I never try to make things perfectly complete. Like drawing a period, I always leave a gap for my subordinates to fill."
Leaving a gap for others does not imply a lack of ability. In fact, it is a form of management wisdom—a higher level of completeness that encompasses the whole picture.
