答案     Top positions are usually taken by older people in a company or an organisation. However, some people claim that it is better to have young people as leaders. Personally, I disagree with this judgement, because different companies and organisations require different qualities to be a good leader, and also older and young people both have advantages and disadvantages to take the leading position .
    The leaders of traditional industry companies, such as manufacturing and medical, should be experienced, good at communicating with team members of different ages and have a stable mind when dealing with difficulties and crises. Clearly, older people are more suitable to play the leading role in such companies, because they are more mature mentally as well as emotionally. This is the same reason why the leaders of most countries are older people who are more capable to handle various situations. I doubt a young leader could perform as well as Giuliani when the September 11 crisis happened in New York in 2001.
    Compared to older people, young people tend to be more creative, so they are more likely to do a better job in new technology and creative industries. Their vision and adventurous spirit are important competitive power in these pioneering industries. For example, Steve Jobs became a successful leader at a young age. However, when Steve Jobs took the job as the CEO of Apple Inc. the second time, he was not young anymore, but the increase of age did not stop him to be one of the best leaders in the world. This is a good example to show age is not the deciding factor to be a good leader, but rather the passion and pioneering spirit in such industries is vital.
    In conclusion, good leadership is based on many factors and it is too simplistic to judge who can be good leaders just according to the age; however, it is a good idea to give young people more opportunities to do the leading job , if they have the capacity and enthusiasm.
