The structure in organizations has changed. It has transformed from a boss to a leader being at the top and from method directing to cooperation, _______ how many of us have actually made this _______ within ourselves?
Let's not get personal about any person or connect this to any _______ organization. Consider the _______ pattern on a social media website such as LinkedIn. We often see good articles written by junior-level employees which _______ new enthusiasm and new perspectives, but how many senior-level _______ go and "Like" the article? Not _______read it, but actually "Like” it. More often than not, the answer is none. Leaders read such articles, but they _______ to press the "Like" button due to some fear!
A friend of mine, who holds the _______ of Director of Human Resources in a reputed organization, happened to mention an article that his team member had written. I casually enquired ________ the absence of a "Like" or comment from him. His answer really ________ me! He said: "You know what my ________ is? I cannot be commenting or liking his article in public!" Amazed by this behavior, I did my research on this pattern on a few social media platforms. Yes, people want to “Like" or comment on articles and photos that are published by people with a(n) ________ level and do so as well.
While we are ________ the "Like" button on a junior-level employee's one — year anniversary, we jump to be one in a few hundreds to offer ________ on a senior-level leader's one — year completion. However, I think our precious “Like" for the employee ________ a lot and encourages him, while, on the other hand, it is ________ many hundreds and is not ________ noticed by the leader.
Encourage new talents and ________ them. If we do not exhibit this socially, I am sure we will not ________ it in our job either.

A robot designed to carry things moves quickly across a field to gather equipment at a sports event. Such equipment, like javelins and discuses (铁饼), has been thrown by competitors. Another robot moves a human-sized screen on wheels. It is designed to permit virtual attendance at the event. And then there are the robots designed to look like the smiling, friendly creatures or mascots that act as the Olympic Games’representatives.
All these robots are part of preparations for the 2020 Olympic Games in Tokyo, Japan. Japanese carmaker Toyota Motor Corporation presented the machines to reporters earlier this week. Toyota is a major supporter of the 2020 Olympic Games.
The mascot robots have moving arms and legs, and their eyes change to the image of stars and hearts. They cannot speak at all or walk very well. But Tomohisa Moridaira, lead engineer, suggested several possibilities, such as getting the robot to hold the Olympic torch using magnets.
The field support robot" is a small bus-shaped machine based on a Toyota ride-sharing vehicle that is still in development. The field support robot can travel as fast as 20 kilometers per hour. It holds three cameras and one special sensor that lets it surroundings. Around the top of its body are special lights that brighten when the vehicle is active. Its artificial intelligence helps it avoid barriers. It is also able to vary its path in order to protect areas of grass.
However, it cannot find the objects, which can weigh up to eight kilograms, or pick them up on its own. A person has to travel with the device, pick up the objects and put them in it. Then, with a press of a button, the vehicle transports the equipment to where it needs to go.
Takeshi Kuwabara took charge of the robots’ development. He said it was designed to team robots and humans. "Our aim was to leverage the strengths of both humans and robots," he said.
The carmaker plans to use the games to present its new vehicle technologies. These include buses fueled by a special kind of battery, and self-driving taxis. Toyota is competing with other carmakers and technology companies to develop low cost , robot-controlled cars and electric vehicles.
