Let's discuss the standards of officials in the 4.0 industrial era.

From the past to the present and will remain the same, the standards for cadres are still condensed into two words: virtue and talent. Our ancestors often said: A person with virtue but no talent is still a gentleman. A person with talent but no virtue is a villain. In life, we must gather gentlemen and avoid villains.

King Le Thanh Tong proposed 5 criteria for selecting a village chief, which also fully included the two criteria of virtue and talent: "Student's academic ability. Good family background. Acceptable material resources. Modest virtue. Trustworthy language". The great poet Nguyen Du also taught: "The word heart is worth three times the word talent".

Reformer Lee Kuan Yew summarized: “Having virtue without talent is easy to stagnate. Having talent without virtue is easy to cause chaos. In reality, chaos in life is more miserable than stagnation.”

Our beloved Uncle Ho said firmly: "A person with virtue but no talent will find it difficult to do anything. A person with talent but no virtue is useless."

Deputy Prime Minister Vuong Dinh Hue and former Minister of Information and Communications presented awards to groups and individuals at the 3rd Nghe An Tam Tai Fund Award Ceremony.

The recent major cases that General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong has directed to be seriously handled also teach us a lesson: When superiors are not up to standard (have no virtue and are not talented enough), it is very difficult for subordinates to find a safe place to stand. If you do not follow your superiors, you will not lose your position or be at peace, but if you follow your superiors, the consequences will be unpredictable.

Of course, in each different era, the connotation of the two words "virtue" and "talent" is also adjusted and supplemented accordingly. Our ancestors selected officials with virtue and talent according to the method: Virtue is based on the people's trust. Talent must pass through examinations. The world selects officials with talent through competition - selects officials with virtue through the people's vote of confidence.

In the era of Industry 4.0, I think cadres need to have 3 criteria: "virtue, talent and courage" with the following specific connotations:

virtuous personMust possess 3 qualities: Exemplary, democratic, cultural qualities. The most difficult morality of a cadre is to be an example to be trusted by everyone. To have a good person to rely on, bad people do not dare to act recklessly. Exemplary is to say to do, do to prove words. Act first, enjoy later. Enjoy with the fruits of your honest labor. Care for everyone, so that everyone honors, cares for and cultivates you.

Comrade Le Doan Hop and the delegation of Nghe An Association in Hanoi learned about the production process at Nghe An Wood Processing Factory of May Forestry Joint Stock Company, Nghia Dan district.

The overarching standard of cadre ethics is true democracy. Democracy is the best way to gather intelligence. Democracy is the only way to liberate and open up thoughts. Democracy is the best way to avoid making mistakes. Democracy is the goal of internal unity.

Ethics is reflected in the outward appearance of a leader as a cultured lifestyle. Having ethics will result in culture. Having culture is due to ethics. Ethics is the cause and effect, the content, the core of culture. The most important culture of a leader is to always take care of subordinates and not bother them.

In short, an ethical cadre is dedicated so that subordinates love him; is exemplary so that subordinates respect him; is democratic so that subordinates trust him and are easy to approach to provide information; is creative so that subordinates have enough work and have more legitimate income; is disciplined so that good people always have support and bad people do not dare to challenge or abuse their power.

Talented personmust also converge 3 contents: "Have vision, know how to gather talent, have specific products".

First of all, a talented person is a person with a long-term vision in the 4.0 era. To see far and not be sad about the near in today's era, one must have a foreign language, be knowledgeable about IT, know how to apply connections and spread, travel a lot to summarize reality, be brave to compare with international friends, from there correctly position oneself, see who one is? Where one is? And what one must do to stand shoulder to shoulder with the world's great powers - One must understand: A decisive cadre is a cadre who can predict the future to make the right decision. That is the standard of intelligence.

A talented cadre is a cadre who always finds ways to approach and assign tasks to discover the right talent, train, manage, use and protect talent, must use people who are capable of the job, not people who please them. Because in the end, a talented person is someone who knows how to gather all the talents of others. Not being able to gather talented people also means being incompetent. Gathering talented people is the highest and most necessary standard of a leader.

In short, the career of a cadre is to do four words: Lots of money, peace for the people. If you want lots of money, you must focus on economic development, the foundation of which is the business economy and the household economy. If you want peace for the people, you must focus on social policies, charity, humanity, education, training and social progress.

In the current situation, virtuous and talented officials must have courage.Because nowadays, there are times, there are jobs, there are places where good people are not enough to overwhelm bad people. Therefore, it is necessary to have a leader with courage to re-establish order and discipline. A cadre with courage also needs to meet 3 criteria: Dare to think, dare to do, dare to speak.

Dare to think of things that are not in books or in life to do for the cause of strengthening people's faith and reviving the country in line with the era of science and technology. When you think correctly, dare to commit to doing it, determined to bring the right things into life, and use the final results to protect yourself. Must actively innovate, associated with environmental improvement to create more right and good things.

Dare to think, dare to do, and dare to speak. Silence and the elimination of struggle are also the environments that foster evil to arise and develop. Life has shown that: Many negative things in the past were discovered quite early by the people, but the authorities realized it a bit late, so when forced to deal with them, the losses were greater, and the economic and political price to pay was heavier.

Above are some small opinions revolving around a very large topic about cadre standards in the present era. Please feel free to discuss so we can ponder together.
