本·卡罗尔通过对名人智慧的系统收集和斯多葛主义哲学的践行，形成了独特的领导方法论。[1]这位维多利亚州的新州长在家中保存了一份25页的名言文件，汇集了杰米·迪蒙、林肯和达赖喇嘛等人物的言论。[1]卡罗尔强调"有时当你处于黑暗之地时，你可能感觉自己被埋葬了，实际上你是被种下了"这样的思想。[1]他的核心管理理念是"我们有两只耳朵和一张嘴，所以应该多听少说"。[1]
卡罗尔在进入维多利亚州议会14年后升任州长。[1]其任期至少延续至11月28日。[1]上任后，他采取了谨慎的政治态度，包括延迟了政府居家办公法规的通过和实施。[1]他的幕僚团队由朱莉·李盖蒂担任幕僚长，金伯利·加迪纳任媒体总监，乔尔·迪恩负责演讲撰稿，穆尼尔·基万担任顾问。[1]
Ben Carroll, Victoria's new premier, has developed an unconventional approach to leadership centered on philosophical reflection and careful listening.[1] He maintains a 25-page document of quotations at home, drawing wisdom from figures including Jamie Dimon, Abraham Lincoln, and the Dalai Lama.[1] Among the sayings he references is the reflection that "sometimes when you are in a dark place you may feel you have been buried, when in fact you have been planted," as well as the principle that "we have got two ears and one mouth so we should listen more than we say."[1]
Carroll's path to the premiership came after 14 years in state parliament.[1] His senior leadership team includes Julie Legethy as chief of staff, Kimberly Gardner as media director, Joel Dean as speechwriter, and Munir Kewan as an adviser.[1] Since taking office, Carroll has adopted a cautious political stance, including delaying the passage and implementation of government work-from-home regulations.[1] His tenure extends at least until November 28.[1]
