Do What You Feels Right, When You Have No Idea What I Should Do

Rating: 7/10 (10 September 2013)

After work, I went to see "Star Trek Into Darkness." It is a very interesting movie, I think.
Compared with "Man of Steel," the visual effect of this movie looks cheaper, although that of "Man of Steel" is outstanding.
Actually, the biggest appeal of "Star Trek Into Darkness" isn't visuals but dialogs between characters, especially Kirk and Spock. When I read the quotes of it, I found that the script was really well written.
Since I became a middle manager of my company, I have been thinking about management and leadership for two years. "Star Trek" series are very helpful for it.
Spock is always quite logical and clear, so he is an extremely capable manager. Then, why is Kirk a captain of the USS Enterprise?
The answer is that management and leadership aren't different. Spock is the best manager, but he isn't good enough for a leader, and Kirk is inferior to Spock as a manager, but he is the leader of the USS Enterprise.
I think that the most important roles of leaders are motivating people and making a decision.
Motivation of human beings isn't necessary logical. Sometimes emotional sympathy moves people more than reasonable explanation. It is important for leaders to express what they feel. Spock isn't good at expressing emotion at all. Although Kirk is too emotional as a manager, it is one of the most important qualities of a leader.
Leaders have to make a decision, even when they don't have any idea what they should do logically. Such a decision is often critical. Spock can point out only what shouldn't do, but he can't decide what really they will do. Kirk is sometimes thoughtless and makes a mistake, but he can make such a difficult and critical decision.
I'd like to show a typical dialog between Spock and Kirk.
===========
Spock: Captain, I cannot allow you to do this! Bones: Jim, you're not actually going after this guy, are you? James T. Kirk: I have no idea what I'm supposed to do! I only know what I CAN do! ===========
Spock warned Kirk that his idea was too dangerous, but he couldn't show what they should do. On the other hand, Kirk decided to do what he could do.
Spock is appropriate for the lieutenant of the USS Enterprise and Kirk is appropriate for the captain.
Do what I feels right, when I have no idea what I should do.
