“知人之长”陈云同志是中共第一代老革命家,革命经历丰富,一生中提出过许多可贵的思想。本期袁宝华同志的回忆文章中提到,延安时期,陈云同志担任中共中央组织部长,经常教育工作人员,要满腔热情地接待来访干部,善于发现他们的长处,启发并帮助他们逐步地克服短处。文章并以对几次被捕的匡亚明同志的审查和工作分配为例,说明陈云同志怎样通过“知人善任”,为党的组织工作和干部队伍建设开创出好局面。“知人之长”,看似工作方法,实际上是一种领导艺术,也是辩证法。 “Long known man” Comrade Chen Yun is the first generation of the Chinese revolutionary old revolutionary with rich revolutionary experience and raised many valuable ideas in his life. Comrade Yuan Baohua’s memoir in this issue mentions that during the Yanan period, Comrade Chen Yun served as the organization minister and regular staff member of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China to warmly welcome visiting cadres so that they could find their strengths and inspire them and gradually help them to overcome shortcomings. Taking the review and assignment of Comrade Kuu Yamming, who was arrested several times, as an example, this article shows how Comrade Chen Yun created a good situation for the party’s organizational work and the contingent of cadres through his “good work”. “Knowing the length of someone else” seems like a working method, which is actually a kind of leading art as well as dialectics.
